Mobil, autonom, vernetzt
Barbara Preisig
Published by Edition Metzel, München, 2018, 240 pages (b/w ill.), 21 × 29.7 cm, English
Price: €38 (Out of stock)

The publication Mobil, autonom, vernetzt, Kritik und ökonomische Innovation in Ephemera der Konzeptkunst, 1966–1975 deals with the advertisements and exhibition announcements printed by Jan Dibbets, Adrian Piper, Daniel Buren and Eleanor Antin between 1966 and 1975. These ephemera—simultaneously works of art, advertising instruments, and documentations for artistic actions—are exemplary for the communication-based, flexible, and mobile practice of conceptual art. A 2015 interview with Barbara Preisig discussing ephemera can be found here.

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).
