Iris Touliatou
Published by Grazer Kunstverein, Graz, 2022, unpaginated (b/w ill.), 10.5 × 15 cm, English

prefaces to appendage appeared in conjunction with the exhibition appendage by Iris Touliatou. It gathers a series of prefaces to the exhibition, written by Arnisa Zeqo, Lisa Holzer, Tom Engels, and Quinn Latimer, and preceded by scattered imagery of the Grazer Kunstverein’s infrastructure before the arrival of appendage. Convened by Iris Touliatou, these voices conjure premonitions, blessings, openings, or, simply put, moments of an attached before. Designed by Julie Peeters.

Cut a Door in the Wolf
Jason Dodge
Published by Bill, Brussels, 2022, 68 pages (colour ill.), 30 × 21 cm, English
Price: €30

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Cut a Door in the Wolf at MACRO Museum, Rome, 11 November, 2021–16 March, 2022. An exhibition in the form of a single, site-specific artwork by Jason Dodge. In exploring systems made up of organic and inorganic matter, he is interested in the refuse that humans shed every day: micro- and macro-landscapes made up of the familiar and often discarded things that result from our individual and collective habits. Dodge recognises this not as a singular artistic process, but rather as a shared landscape in which cause and effect are circular phenomena that belong to everyone. He therefore investigates the potential of his audience as producers of meaning. This publication documents the work through a series of photographs.
