Straying from the Line
Published by the Schinkel Pavillon, Berlin, 2019, unpaginated (colour & b/w ill.), 14.7 × 21 cm, German
Price: €12 (Out of stock)

Produced on the occasion of Straying from the Line at the Schinkel Pavillon from 13 April–28 July, 2019

Straying from the Line was dedicated to a fundamentally expanded perspective on the multiplicity of feminist tendencies in the art of the last 100 years. Instead of presenting a straight narrative of feminist art as a generation- and/or identity-specific style, the exhibition charted a network of multiple references, drawing connections between aesthetically and politically, geographically and historically heterogeneous perspectives.

Libro Illeggibile 'mn 1'
Bruno Munari
Published by Corraini Edizioni, Mantua, 2013, 32 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 10 × 10 cm, Italian
Price: €7

In 1949 Munari designed for the first time a series of “libri illeggibili” (illegible books), which abandoned textual communication in behalf of aesthetic function only. Paper is no longer the support of only text, but it also communicates a message through the format, the colour, the cuts and their successions. The elements that usually set up a book (like the colophon and the title-page) are removed, and the reading seems the execution of a melody, with always different tones during the sequence of the pages.

Retrospective
Tetsumi Kudo
Published by Fridericianum, Kassel, 2016, 34 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 15 × 21 cm, English
Price: €5 (Out of stock)

Exhibition booklet produced on the occasion of the exhibition Tetsumi Kudo: Retrospective, curated by  Susanne Pfeffer, Fridericianum, 25 September 2016–1 January, 2017.

Bottled humanism, coloured neon contaminations, tattered flaps of skin, and limp penises bring humanist self-assurance crashing to the ground. What appears as poison or chemical devastation is in fact an appeal to understand metamorphosis as a state of being. Over a period of three decades (from the mid-1950s to the late 1980s), Tetsumi Kudo created a consistent body of work that serves as a model for contemporary conceptual approaches. The Fridericianum presented the first comprehensive retrospective exhibition of the Japanese artist’s work in Germany. This pamphlet also serves as the gallery guide for Loretta Fahrenholz’s exhibition, Two A.M. Designed by Zak Group.
