Michael E. Smith
Published by Mousse Publishing, Milan, 2021, 148 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 16.5 × 23.5 cm, English
Price: €34

Michael E. Smith (born 1977 in Detroit) makes sculptures out of cast-offs, waste and other residues of our consumer society. He assembles and manipulates this found material in an unusual way. He isolates objects, makes changes to their form and seeks out the limits of their imaginative power. His presentations are characterized by an intense yet sparse choreography of the exhibition space.

Initially conceived to document three solo shows at de Appel in Amsterdam (2015), Kunstverein Hannover (2015), and S.M.A.K. in Ghent (2017), the publication also gathers new commissioned texts and a reprint that shed light on the artist’s decade-plus practice.

With texts by Martin Germann, Anthony Huberman, Chris Sharp.

Annaïk Lou Pitteloud
Published by Edition Fink, Zurich, 2016, 134 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 19 × 24.5 cm, English
Price: €25

With the modular work documentation Folder, Annaïk Lou Pitteloud presents for the most  comprehensive publication on her artistic work to date. It is is preceded by the two sub-publications Mappe and Dossier. As catalogues for the solo exhibitions at the Kunstmuseum St. Gallen and the Musée cantonal des Beaux-Arts in Lausanne, they contain different compilations of the artist’s works that are related to the respective exhibitions and thus illustrate the basic idea of the present modular documentation of works. Files on all the artist’s works are created according to a strict grid. Separated by type of content, titles, descriptions of works, notes, documentary images and texts are compiled. Reproductions of drawings and reprints of printed matter used in the exhibitions complete the collection.

With texts from Maziar Afrassiabi, Bethan Huws, Nicole Schweizer, Madeleine Amsler, Hans Rudolf Reust, Steve Van den Bosch, Barnaby Drabble, Marie-Eve Knoerle, Federica Martini, Nadia Veronese, Pavel Büchler.
