I Am All the Selves that I Have Been
Fina Miralles
Published by MACBA, Barcelona, 2020, 184 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 17.2 × 23.5 cm, English / Catalan / Spanish
Price: €36

“The work of Fina Miralles—artist born in Sabadell, Barcelona—is not that well known. Her actions, understood from today’s perspective—were not really performances but the enactment of a necessary philosophy: to simply perceive the sun, and, then understand its energy; to interact and even tie yourself to a tree, to understand its form, its life; to be halfway buried on earth, to sense it… All simple but all aimed to what we need, a thought and an experiential system capable of surpassing the binary culture/nature.”—Chus Martinez

Roma and afterwards
Hannah Villiger
Published by Mousse Publishing, Milan, 2021, 168 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 16 × 22.5 cm, English

With texts by Elizabeth Bronfen, Gioia Dal Molin, Quinn Latimer, Thomas Schmutz.

Hannah Villiger lived and worked as a resident artist at Istituto Svizzero in Rome from 1974 to 1976. There she realized her early artistic ideas and developed the sculptural approach to photography that would shape all of her later work—namely large-format photographs of her own body arranged into blocks of several images, which show close-ups of sometimes fragmented and abstracted body parts. Villiger viewed herself as a sculptor rather than a photographer, and these Roman years were decisive in shaping her artistic practice. In her studio and in the garden of Villa Maraini, she first developed simple objects inspired by the materials of Arte Povera, then gradually shifted to photography, perceiving it as a more sculptural method.
