Telebodies:
Bleeding Subtitles for Postrobotic Scenes
Valentinas Klimašauskas
Published by Mousse Publishing, Milan, 2024, 198 pp. (colour & b/w ill.), 17.6 × 25 cm, English
Price: €18 (Out of stock)

A strange hybrid of Teletubbies and Videodrome in the age of algorithms, Telebodies is a techno-somatic, multifaceted endeavour referring to the ever-growing entanglement of our bodies with epistemic, cybernetic, and kinetic materialities.

The book offers an alternative art history in the near-present of automation and disinformation, portraying a Central Eastern Europe populated by speculative cultural producers.
Written in collaboration with a cloud-based typing assistant with “main character syndrome,” the text can also be interpreted as an academic novel about the doctoral research of an overcaffeinated generation with slight attention deficit disorder, or processed as a speculative script for (im)possible collaborations with AI or machine-based personalities to come. It is also an attempt to write a practice-based fine-arts PhD thesis at the Vilnius Academy of Arts.

Designed by Nerijus Rimkus.

Nihilism Is Love
Steven Parrino
Published by Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König, Köln, 2020, 208 pp. (colour & b/w ill.), 25 × 21 cm, English
Price: €58 (Out of stock)

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Steven Parrino: Nihilism Is Love at the Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, 21 February – 16 August, 2020. Predominantly a painter, in his oeuvre Parrino developed a unique visual idiom that, on the one hand, draws on various subcultural movements and, on the other, displays clear references to the history of visual art of the twentieth century and beyond. Parrino’s work is defined by an unconditional will to be free that stems from American biker culture and is also influenced by punk rock existentialism.

With texts by Konrad Bitterli, Catherine Dossin, Fabian Flückiger, Pierre Huber, Friedemann Malsch, Matthew McCaslin, Olivier Mosset, Bob Nickas, Amy O’Neill.
