One Thing I Know
Pati Hill
Published by Daisy editions, Lisbon/Paris, 2022, 108 pages (b/w ill.), 12 × 18 cm, English
Price: €10

One Thing I Know is Pati Hill’s third novel, first published in 1962, when she was forty-one and had just given birth to her first and only child. It is the last novel she wrote before claiming to “quit writing in favor of housekeeping”.

Untrained as an artist, she began to use the photocopier as an artistic tool in the early 1970s and continued to do so until her death, leaving behind an extensive oeuvre that explores the relationship between image and text. In addition to this comprehensive body of xerographic work, she published four novels, a memoir, several short stories, artist’s books, and poetry.

Afterword by Baptiste Pinteaux.

Spirits And Objects
Josef Strau
Published by Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König, Köln, 2022, 198 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 16 × 23 cm, English
Price: €22

This publication assembles a selection of texts produced between the years 2005 and 2020, starting with The Non- Productive Attitude (2005), his prominent reflections on the anti-productive attitude in the Cologne art scene of the time. The experience of having to write the essay overnight within a few hours, and without any time for revision, triggered his interest in exploring forms of unintentional writing, and consequently the replacement of the intentional author by an unconscious writer / producer. This mode of automatic writing has manifested itself until today, and has become the core of Strau’s artistic practice.
