Rereading Appropriation
Published by If I Can’t Dance I Don’t Want to Be Part of Your Revolution, Amsterdam, 2016, 632 pages, 15 × 22 cm, English
Price: €20 (Out of stock)

Rereading Appropriation reconsiders the artistic strategy of appropriation through later elaborated theories of affect, to explore how an understanding of ‘reciprocal investment’ reconfigures appropriation as an act that is based in connecting, acknowledging and being porous to material. Rereading Appropriation compiles texts read in the sister reading groups of If I Can’t Dance, I Don’t Want To Be Part Of Your Revolution during its Edition V – Appropriation and Dedication (2013–2014).

Coasts
Daniel Gustav Cramer
Published by Daniel Gustav Cramer, Berlin, 2017, 4 pages, stapled, 15 × 21 cm, English
Price: €5 (Out of stock)

Published on the occasion of Daniel Gustav Cramer’s exhibition Coasts, as part of Art Basel Parlours, 2016. Curated by Samuel Leuenberger.

Coasts, a sound installation placed in the first-floor rooms of a townhouse currently undergoing renovation, is Cramer’s first presentation of his archive of recordings taken in various coastal regions spanning the continents from Darwin, Australia to Ericeira, Portugal to Santa Monica, California. The architecture of the building creates a purely individual experience for the visitor who can listen to a singular recording or, by walking through the spaces, experience the overlap of a multitude of recordings.

Limits to Growth
Nicholas Mangan
Published by Sternberg Press, Berlin, 2016, 246 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 17 × 24 cm, English
Price: €28

Edited by Aileen Burns, Charlotte Day, Krist Gruijthuijsen, Johan Lundh. Texts by Max Andrews and Mariana Cánepa Luna (Latitudes), Helen Hughes, Ana Teixeira Pinto.

This publication accompanies Australian multidisciplinary artist Nicholas Mangan’s survey exhibition Limits to Growth. The exhibition and book bring together four of Mangan’s most significant works of the past seven years, alongside a new commission. The works in the show tackle narratives from his own geographical region—Asia Pacific, in which his home country of Australia plays a colonial role—and weaves them into a bigger picture to take into account the global economy, resource extraction, and the ultimate power of the sun. Featuring an in-depth series of conversations between the artist and the Barcelona-based curatorial collective Latitudes, and essays by Ana Teixeira Pinto and Helen Hughes, this publication is richly illustrated with documentation of Mangan’s artworks and historical source material.

Copublished with the Institute of Modern Art, Brisbane; KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin; and Monash University Museum of Art, Melbourne. Design by Žiga Testen.
