Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Yayoi Kusama: Zwischen Welten wandeln at the Kunsthalle Wien, 8 February–28 April, 2002.

Yayoi Kusama’s (b. 1929) work has transcended two of the most important art movements of the second half of the twentieth century: Pop art and Minimalism. Her highly influential career spans paintings, performances, room-size presentations, outdoor sculptural installations, literary works, films, fashion, design, and interventions within existing architectural structures, which allude at once to microscopic and macroscopic universes.

Filmmaker Chantal Akerman presents A Family in Brussels, a fictional stream-of-consciousness text encompassing multiple subjectivities and laced with autobiographical references.

This is the first English-language publication of the work, which Akerman wrote and first performed as a monologue in Paris and Brussels. The accompanying recording documents the theatrical reading that took place at the Dia Center for the Arts, New York, in October 2001. The listener can hear Akerman’s singular voice as she muses on familial relations, communication, closeness, and distance.

The first book by the artist Lucy McKenzie, published on the occasion of her exhibition at Galerie Buchholz, Köln, 7 September – 6 October, 2001. With various colour reproductions of paintings/works and reference material, foldout-pages, texts and interviews by the artist. Designed by Yvonne Quirmbach.

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Ana Mendieta: Body Tracks at the Kunstmuseum Luzern, 19 October, 2002–23 February, 2003.

Considered a pioneer of performance art, land art and body art, Ana Mendieta left Cuba for exile in the US in her early youth and died under tragic circumstances in 1985. Linking avant-garde forms of expression with the spiritual mysticism of SanterÌa, a syncretistic religious movement, but also with issues of gender and questions of migration, her work is relevant still today.

With texts by Patrick Dondelinger and Laura Roulet.
