HELLO
Introducing Black Dog Publishing’s Spring 2014 list, we are delighted to
announce an exciting range of new titles, alongside our perennial bestsellers
and acclaimed backlist.
We begin with the announcement of one of this season’s most resonant titles,
Stanley Kubrick: New Perspectives, a richly illustrated exploration enabled
by the Stanley Kubrick Archive, London, profiling unseen archival material
alongside critical analyses of Kubrick’s films. Following this extensive profile
of one of cinema’s truly great innovators we are equally pleased to announce
the first comprehensive monograph on the artistic practice of a literary enfant
terrible — Douglas Coupland: Everywhere is Anywhere is Anything is Everything is
the resource for the best-selling author of Generation X, Microserfs and Girlfriend
In A Coma. This publication arrives in partnership with a major groundbreaking
solo exhibition of Coupland’s work at the Vancouver Art Gallery.
Following these explorations of two luminaries of the arts, we expand our focus
to present a food title that is sumptuously illustrated and, indeed, ‘good enough
to eat’. Experimental Eating is the first international survey of contemporary
experimental and experiential food-based creative practices across art, design,
catering, science and theatre, presenting an enticing journey into the world of
radical dining that will delight lovers of fine food and cutting-edge design alike.
Following our foray into ‘experimental eating’ we present Made By Hand, a visual
survey of some of the finest handmakers, the spaces in which they work, and
the products they create—a remedy to mass production and a celebration of the
return to artisan craft.
We continue with two further important collaborations, beginning with our
partnership with the Art Gallery of Ontario, and their major 2015 exhibition,
Camera Atomica. Camera Atomica is a unique and engaging exploration of how
the camera lens has shaped public perceptions of the atomic age and its legacy
of anxiety, whilst Carolee Schneemann: Unforgivable offers a comprehensive
overview of the multifaceted practice of this celebrated feminist artist.
Following Kubrick, Coupland and Schneemann, our embrace of significant
sur veys of esteemed names from the world of the ar ts continues with
publications encompassing a diverse cross-section of practitioners, such as
Gordon Smith, Myfanwy Macleod, Roja Dove, and Scott Conarroe. These titles
sit alongside a seminal survey of the late American artist Richard Artschwager
and the first comprehensive monograph on the work of Turner Prize nominee
Mike Nelson.
To complete our brief round-up of Spring’s highlights, we are excited to announce
Playa Dust: Collected Stories from Burning Man, a unique digest of essays
concerning a variety of formative experiences of the cult American desert
festival that has changed the meaning of collective gatherings forever.
Enjoy.

STANLEY KUBRICK
NEW PERSPECTIVES
EDITORS: RICHARD DANIELS, PETER KRÄMER, TATJANA LJUJIC
A richly illustrated exploration of the Stanley Kubrick Archive,
London, profiling vast amounts of unseen material alongside
esteemed critical analysis to tell the story of one of cinema’s
undoubted visionaries.
Stanley Kubrick: New Perspectives brings together essays by
scholars who have examined the traces that Kubrick’s work has
left in archives, in particular his own collection of film-related
materials, which was donated to the University of the Arts
London in 2007. Richly illustrated with film stills and previously
unseen material from the Stanley Kubrick Archive, this book is
designed to open the reader’s eyes to the wonder and richness
of Kubrick’s oeuvre.
Kubrick’s films have inspired a huge amount of critical
commentary, yet until recently critics and scholars have made
little use of archival resources. The essays included in this
collection offer new perspectives on Kubrick’s working methods,
the manifold influences on his films, their themes and style as
well as their marketing and reception. Between them, the essays
cover the totality of Kubrick’s career, from his beginnings as a
photojournalist and documentary filmmaker in the late 1940s and
early 1950s to his last movie, Eyes Wide Shut, which was released
a few months after his death in 1999.
Ranging from low-budget noir thrillers to spectacular historical
and futuristic epics, from war films to erotic dramas, from
horror to topical movies, Kubrick’s work explores fundamental
questions about sexuality and violence, combat and the military,
male bonding and marriage, human nature and social change.
In doing so, he has produced an archive of iconic imagery (and
sound) following the changing issues of twentieth century life.

DOUGLAS COUPLAND
EVERYWHERE IS ANYWHERE IS ANYTHING IS EVERYTHING
CONTRIBUTORS: DAINA AUGAITIS, BJARKE INGELS,
HANS-ULRICH OBRIST, MICHAEL STIPE, ET AL.
First comprehensive monograph on the artistic practice of the
best-selling author of Generation X, in partnership with a major
solo exhibition at the Vancouver Art Gallery.
This publication will be the first monograph to provide a
comprehensive overview of Douglas Coupland’s visual art
practice with significant critical assessments of his work. Existing
publications on Coupland’s artwork are limited in scope and
focus on a select portion of his oeuvre. This book however, will
be an enduring and extensive resource on Coupland’s artistic
practice, and is published in conjunction with a major exhibition
of his work to be held at the Vancouver Art Gallery in 2014.
Alongside his celebrated status as author of 13 best-selling
novels, including his seminal debut Generation X: Tales for an
Accelerated Culture, Coupland’s output reflects the commitment
of a true multidisciplinarian—he graduated in 1985 from the Emily
Carr Institute of Art and Design, Vancouver before furthering his
aesthetic studies at the Hokkaido College of Art and Design in
Japan as well as the Sapporo Instituto Europeo di Design, Milan.
After concentrating on his literary works for the entire 1990s,
Coupland returned to his dormant artistic practice, exhibiting
his work internationally in many solo and collective exhibitions.
He has also diversified further, emboldening his body of work
within non-fiction, film and television, as well as forays into
fashion and design.

desirability of popular culture to the intrigue of military imagery.

The exhibition Camera Atomica:
Photographing the Nuclear World
runs at the Art Gallery of Ontario,
Canada from 8 July 2015–25 Jan 2016.
A unique and engaging exploration of how the camera lens has
shaped public perceptions of the atomic age and its legacy
of anxiety.
Photographs have a crucial place in the representation of
the atomic age and its anxieties. Camera Atomica examines
narratives beyond the “technological sublime” that dominates
much nuclear photography, suppressing representations of
the human form in favour of representations of B-52 bombers
and mushroom clouds. The book proposes that the body is
the site where the social environment interacts with the socalled “atomic road”: uranium mining and processing, radiation
research, nuclear reactor construction and operation, and
weapons testing.
Cameras have both recorded and—in certain instances—
provided motivation for the production of nuclear events.
Their histories and technological development are intimately
intertwined. All photographs, including nuclear photographs,
have the capability to function affectively by working on the
emotions and fascinating audiences. Through a wide range of
visual documentation, Camera Atomica raises questions such
as: what has the role of photography been in underwriting
a public image of the bomb and nuclear energy? Has the
circulation of photographic images heightened or lessened
anxieties, or done both at the same time? How should the
different visual protocols of photography and be understood?
An exhibition of archival materials
from John O’Brian’s personal
collection of atomic photographs will
also be on show at WORK Gallery from
September to November 2014.

The accompanying exhibition, Young
Lords, runs at The Bronx Museum
of the Arts, New York, USA, from
12 September 2014 –11 January 2015.
12 NEW TITLES
A globally resonant and evocative publication of social change,
hailed as the first major publication of an untapped chapter of the
civil-rights era.
This fascinating book charts the history of the predominant
chapter of the Young Lords Organization formed in East Harlem
and the Bronx. A politicised, multi-ethnic movement that
sprung from Puerto Rican discontent in Chicago’s Lincoln Park
neighbourhood in the mid-1960s, the Latino-led civil rights
group expanded substantially within pockets of Puerto Rican
communities in major US cities throughout the decade.
Focusing on the ingrained social issues of the era such as the
inadequacy of public health, sanitation, housing, employment
and social resources, despite their relative eminence at the
time, the Young Lords are often overlooked in their consequence
by movements such as the famed and radical Black Panthers.
Thus this is the fist major publication to extensively cover the
origins, tactics and subsequent impact of the Young Lords as an
imperative movement of the era’s progress and history.
In collaboration with the Bronx Museum of the Arts’ 2014
exhibition entitled Demand and Supply: Legacies of the Young
Lords in Art and Activism, the book uses the untapped wealth
of documentary photography by Hiram Maristany, Michael
Abramson, and Carlos Flores alongside a wealth of political
posters, flyers and facsimiles from the YLO’s bilingual
newspaper Pa’ lante. Further media transposed from the
exhibition include transcripts and stills from radio, television
and newsreel coverage, creating a comprehensive and highly
important document of social change.

CAROLEE SCHNEEMANN

CONTRIBUTORS: MELISSA RAGONA, KRISTINE STILES, KEN WHITE,

A revelatory overview of Schneemann’s vast archive of work,
this rich publication spans the multifaceted oeuvre of this
groundbreaking and celebrated feminist artist.
Carolee
Schneemann
Carolee Schneemann is one of the most important artists of her
generation, with a career spanning seven decades, and work
in media as diverse as painting, sculpture, performance, film,
and video. Known to many for her groundbreaking feminist
performance and film works, Schneemann still considers herself
a ‘painter’, a reflection on her first accomplished works that
experimented with figurative abstraction. Her interest in painting
has continued through to the present, and was seen most
recently in her exhibition, Flange 6rpm, at PPOW, New York, 2013.
Unforgivable
An artist known for her experimental approach and political
convictions, Schneemann has been the subject of numerous
exhibitions and publications throughout her career, with work
in the collections of Tate Modern, the Commune di Milano, the
Pompidou Centre and MOMA, to name but a few.

Experimental Eating is the first international survey of
contemporary experimental and experiential food-based creative
practices across art, design, catering, science and theatre.
Profiling a range of culinary pioneers working across the fields
of art, science, theatre, catering and design, Experimental Eating
demonstrates how current creative collaborations are pushing
the boundaries of how we understand, experience and relate to
food and the rituals of dining.
The book encompasses unusual and cutting-edge foods, radical
dining events, “kitchen laboratory” experiments, food sculptures
and other documentation of the transient moments that make up
this field of experimentation.

MADE BY HAND
A visual survey of some of the finest handmakers, the spaces in
which they work and the products they create, Made By Hand is
a remedy to mass production and a celebration of the return to
artisan craft.
Profiling these makers with large images of themselves, their
workshops, products and techniques, Made By Hand takes
the reader through tailors, shoemakers, bee keepers, micro
breweries, jewellers and more. By focusing on the choice these
artisans have made to produce hand-made goods in an age
where mass-produced, imported wares are cheaper and easier to
produce, the book is a timely celebration of the return to organic,
hand-made and home-grown that is proliferating worldwide.
Each maker features with interviews probing their techniques,
the surrounding tradition and their motivation for working by hand.
This is accompanied by trivia, such as the celebrities they have
produced for and the most expensive pieces they have ever made.
Prefaced by an introductor y text about the ethos of hand
making, and with the juxtaposition of traditional craft alongside
contemporary hand making throughout, Made By Hand is framed
as an address to hand craft as an environmentally friendly and
economically healthy resurgence that is not only nostalgic but
also progressive and productive.

COLLECTED STORIES FROM BURNING MAN
RICHARD ARTSCHWAGER
INTO THE DESERT
EDITOR: SAMANTHA KURKOWSKI
AUTHOR: JOHN YAU
A compilation of essays about experiences of the cult American
desert festival that changed the meaning of collective
gatherings forever.
Burning Man’s in-your-face, counterculture vibe has meant
that the festival has always been something of a media
darling. But when the event sold out for the first time in
2011, there was a marked increase in the commentary about
its history, current status and future. When, in 2012, a new
random lotter y system for tickets left so many long-time
attendees ticketless, that commentary deepened. Questions
about the evolution, meaning and value of Burning Man as an
experiment in community, self-sufficiency and anti-capitalism
are being raised, and Playa Dust seeks to answer them.

16 NEW TITLES
Playa Dust is a compilation of essays by authors who are part
of the universe of Burning Man or who envisage the many
ideas and landscapes on its peripher y. By juxtaposing an
unusual array of voices and stories, the volume reveals the
complex nature of this annual pilgrimage, now in its twentyseventh year.
Contributors include those who built the first wooden effigies
on San Francisco’s Baker Beach from 1986 to 1990, in the
gatherings that would later become Burning Man; artists who
have installed works at the festival; writers, musicologists,
photographers and filmmakers who have made work there;
architects who have built there, sociologists who have studied
Burning Man’s experimental nature and even lawyers who
have brokered Burning Man’s controversial existence.
ART / POPULAR CULTURE
The first major monograph focusing on the drawings of the
renowned American Pop artist and conceptualist.
RICHARD ARTSCHWAGER
INTO THE DESERT
Richard Artschwager: Into The Desert meditates on the intimate
and influential relationship between the artist’s drawing and
practice as both a painter and a sculptor.
Artschwager is most known for his use of painting and sculpture
in exploring Pop art, Conceptual art, Minimalism and even
Surrealism, however drawing as a medium was always close
to Artschwager’s heart and integral to his work. Artschwager,
believing himself to be a poor draftsman, returned to study
drawing in his 70s, and it is this later period of the artist’s
practice that Into The Desert focuses in on.
Featuring works produced between 2003 and 2012 alongside
archival imagery of Artschwager at work in his studio, this
ambitious new book contextualises Artschwager’s drawings
using details, images of his paintings and works from much
earlier in his career. The book is prefaced by an introductory
text by leading American art writer and critic John Yau, who has
written extensively on Artschwager’s work and is something of
an authority on the artist’s practice.

This major collation of Conarroe’s sarcastically romanticised
wanderlust is also an immersive photographic statement
portraying the deadpan geographic beauty of vast stretches
of North America.
Scott Conarroe’s project began as a study of Canadian and
US railways, as well as the coastlines of these hulking giants.
Over time it became a portrayal of the Westernmost front of
civilisation; a bloc of British Empire and Cold War superpower.
Each work depicts images of idealistic beauty blocked by
portions of post-industrial malaise and decay. We are forever
approaching these grand vistas and roadways, where images
of capitalist infrastructure masquerade as an idealised sense
of freedom.
Comparable with Stephen Shore and Joel Sternfeld in a tradition
of exploring the ‘cinematography’ of a peculiar North American
ennui, Conarroe is brought to the forefront with this publication,
undertaken in collaboration with the Stephen Bulger Gallery
in Toronto.
By Rail and By Sea is an important photographic statement,
a kind of deadpan beauty that plays on themes of isolation,
transience and the infinite.

CONTRIBUTORS: ASAF GOTTESMAN, KENNY SCHACHTER, ET AL.
An engaging look at the last ten years of ‘art focused’ work by
the Paris-based multidisciplinarian and worldwide creative.
Arik Levy: Art, published as a sister volume to a forthcoming
book on Levy’s design, encompasses the last ten years of the
Israeli born, Paris-based, practitioner’s output. Artist, technician,
photographer, designer and filmmaker, Levy’s skills and indeed
outlook are entirely multidisciplinary, whilst his work can be seen
in prestigious galleries and museums worldwide. Influenced by
Arte Povera, he is comparable to Anish Kapoor and Jeff Koons
in sharing an exploration of advanced manufacturing processes
within his work, often taking the form of highly polished metal
structures. Yet Lev y is distinctly committed to an ideology
of nature and natural materials despite his working with the
constraints of industrial forms and manufacturing processes.
Indeed he considers himself more of a “feeling” artist, this tactile
association with nature fostered perhaps by his background
and time spent in different corners of the globe. To that extent,
perhaps his harmonious approach disseminates his interest in
the difficulties of categorisation within areas of the arts, where
objects, critiqued in often abstract terms, as being either ‘design’
or ‘art’ are judged differently in terms of value, both financial and
critical. In part this argument is addressed in the separation of his
work into two volumes, with the second, companion volume Arik
Levy: Design, being published next season.

Roja Dove, the world’s leading perfume authority, takes us on a
comprehensive and extravagant journey through the world
of scent in a fully updated edition of his best-selling book.
Kids London is a unique and practical book, filled with tips that
allow parents to make the most of the outdoor and alternative
experiences on offer in London.
Roja Dove’s passion for fragrance is contagious. As the world’s
leading perfume authority, Dove takes us on an extravagant
journey through the world of scent, from Ancient Egypt, where
myth has it that the fragrance Kypi induced mass surrender,
through to the 1920s, when Jean Harlow’s husband—maddened
by his love and frustrated by his impotence—drenched himself
in his wife’s perfume before ending his life. We hear about
the many episodes born from the bitter rivalry between Coco
Chanel and “that Italian”, Elsa Schiaparelli, and which of today’s
celebrity fragrances are the most offensive.
Whether you are a new parent in London, or a tourist with three
young children in tow, Kids London will tell you all you need
to know to entertain and inspire your children—and give you
a break—in the capital.
The Essence of Perfume is the first book by the world’s only
Professeur de Parfums, and it is as captivating as it is
informative. Beginning with a comprehensive discussion of the
sense of smell and the materials of the master perfumer, The
Essence of Perfume goes on to celebrate the great classics, the
makers who brought them to life and the bottle makers who
gave them shape. In an age where the methods and motivations
of the original perfumers are all but forgotten, Roja Dove
unfolds the gripping story of scent with all the passion and
devotion of a true artist.
With handy hints and secret tips for all budgets, this guide will
save you the agony of trying to navigate your way through the
many and varied activities for children that London has to offer.
The book is packed with insider knowledge on food and drink, art,
crafts, sports and physical activity, major attractions and parks
and playgrounds across the city. There is also focused information
on meeting other parents and support groups.
Kids London is structured geographically, with sections on north,
south, east and west London. The book features information on
how to get around the city, weather-dependent ideas and things
that only happen on specific days of the week. Its practical format
means that this pocket-sized guide is easy to use at a glance—
essential for the busy parent or carer of children from birth to 13.

A broad and important book cataloguing what is billed as the
most important exhibition of contemporary Cuban art outside of
Havana in decades.
This groundbreaking publication explores the radical story
of contemporary art in Central Asia since the collapse of the
Soviet Union.
As opined by the book’s title, this is a publication focused toward
the shared spaces and communal sensibilities of a city, rather
than an attempt to survey the entire contemporary output of this
anomalous nation. In essence, the study is a concentrated one
of modern Havana, taking note of those artistic, cultural, socioeconomic and anthropological influences on its art scene without
the intent of becoming pedagogic in the process.
Punk Orientalism explores the radical stor y of contemporar y
art in Central Asia since the collapse of the Soviet Union in
1991 following almost 75 years of Soviet rule. What ensued was
the chaotic emergence of various political, religious and ethnic
groups vying for power. At the same time a new generation of
contemporary artists were emerging from art schools into this
changing and divided society.
Including major contemporary figures such as Juan Carlos
Alom, Celia y Junior and Eduardo Ponjuan, The Spaces Between
discusses the modern current of unfocused politicisation
within the works featured, where issues of money, identity
and bureaucracy are garnered from each viewers reading and
imagination, suggesting reflections of the current emphasis on
the spectator as a contributor to the making of meaning.
Punk Orientalism examines this cohort of artists and
their creation of art that challenged the Soviet style dogmas
dominating academe in Central Asia. In critiquing societal
hypocrisy this formed a movement that contributed to the
evolution of a Central Asian contemporary art scene. Alongside
interviews and essays this book aims to provide both an
introduction and comprehensive survey of one of the most underresearched regions in the contemporary art world, yet one that
remains a truly emerging market positioned at the intersection
of Asia’s social, cultural and economic development. Focusing
on art from Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan,
Uzbekistan and Afghanistan it features a breadth of important
artists that form a comprehensive survey of the subject.
Published in collaboration with the Morris and Helen Belkin Art
Gallery, Vancouver, the book maintains the ambient approach
of the partnering exhibition in an attempt to depict the context
of Havana artists in the modern era. In part it discusses the
lo-tech necessities of contemporary artists working in the city
today, which has formed if not a coherent style, then a municipal
approach to practice. As such, much of the work uses recycled
materials or simple video and text-based elements to convey its
meaning in a manner more diverse and ambiguous than prior
generations of Cuban artists.

MACAO MACAU
ROGER PALMER, TIM SIMPSON
A dreamlike but cutting and unglamourous photographic
exploration of a fascinating, conflicted nation.
After 450 years of colonial administration, Portugal returned
the territory of Macau to the People’s Republic of China in 1999.
The government subsequently liberalised the local casino
monopoly and opened the industry to investment by foreign
gaming companies who have poured billions of dollars into the
city. As a result, Macau has become the world’s most lucrative
site of casino gaming, generating annual revenues quadruple
those of Las Vegas. Transnational investment has created a
phantasmagorical cityscape of iconic glass buildings and themed
casino resorts sat astride colonial era buildings and monuments.
Roger Palmer’s two series of photographs use old and new
technologies to reflect on the spatial confines of Macau.
Analogue black and white pictures employ outmoded techniques
to fr ame views of ur ban and mar itime l andscapes in a
densely populated zone that is constantly suspended between
development and decay. Through a series of digital photographs
Palmer represents evidence of contemporary signage found in
different parts of Macau.

The title Macao Macau refers to the cultural characteristic that
Walter Benjamin called “porosity”, a quality that has contributed
to Macau’s ambiguous sovereignty, ill-defined geographic
borders, and hybrid cultural life and one which is also present
in the strange slippage of the uncertain Romanised spelling of
the place. Such porosity is what fascinates Palmer about Macau
and what drives the approach of his photography and those
statements that his work helps to make.

An in depth profile of the new sculptural work from the revered
Canadian artist, referencing satirically overarching themes from
Led Zeppelin to JRR Tolkien.
Myfanwy Macleod: or There and Back Again is an ambitious new
monograph on the work of Canadian artist Myfanwy Macleod.
Focusing on a new body of sculptural work, produced specifically
for Macleod’s forthcoming solo show at Vancouver Art Gallery,
the publication presents the artist’s ambitions to deconstruct
social hierarchies, using a varied palette of cultural references.
Macleod’s work has previously referenced cultural nodes as
diverse as Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,
Jethro Tull’s Bungle in the Jungle and the cartoons of Chuck
Jones. Macleod makes these references through a combination
of form, content and technique: a recent work, Dorothy, for
example, comprises origami structures made from magazine
cutouts of the famously murdered Playmate Dorothy Stratten.
In her new body of work, the work at the heart of or There and
Back Again, Macleod explores the sexually evocative lyrics of Led
Zeppelin and the novels of JRR Tolkien. A vast stack of Marshall
amps, a skewed Chevrolet Camaro spinning on a rotisserie
and monumentally exaggerated heav y metal band logos all
feature in this exciting new book from one of Canada’s foremost
contemporary artists.

TRANSFIGURATIONS
PHOTOGRAPHS OF TAREK AL GHOUSSEIN
The first major monograph of the Palestinian Kuwaiti artist whose
work focuses predominantly on the metaphor-laden presence of
the lone figure.
Born in Kuwait in 1962, Tarek Al Ghoussein’s position as a
Palestinian-Kuwaiti shapes the dominant themes of identity,
displacement, and politico-structural control prominent in
his work.
His work, photographs often featuring the figure of the artist
silhouetted against barren landscapes, serves as a partial
allegor y for the obstacles and forms of control facing
Palestinians and the diaspora, as well as troubling Western
representations of Arabs as terrorists. Other series use the
desert as a stage for investigating the artist’s relationship to land
and place, and are done amidst the rapid urban transformation
of the UAE. In the words of Sabine Vogel, his work “goes beyond
the specific”, and “transforms direct political references into the
existentially universal”.
Transfigurations is published in collaboration with the Taymour
Grahne Gallery, New York and will coincide with a solo exhibition
at the gallery in 2014.

Ten Shows will be launched at the LA Art
Book Fair in January 2014.
Taking the singular viewpoint of this one institution, manifested
aptly in its collection of historical slides, Ten Shows charts an
exclusively visual trajectory into this now-obsolete medium of
documentation. The documentation of works by artists including
Allan Kaprow, Joan Jonas, Robert Morris, Jeff Wall and Carolee
Schneemann, amongst others, becomes the work itself, and the
archival inclination of the institution is shown as humbly beautiful.
Slides are organised into simplistic groupings, based on their
content’s formal elements; Abstract Weather Patterns; Clouds
in Grey Landscapes; Triple Shadows. The recurrence of certain
objects, shapes or circumstances in multiple images becomes
prevalent as Choit encourages the viewer to see comparable
beauty in the works of famous artists and anonymously produced
stock imagery.

A major new monograph on the ambitious new commission of the
iconic British Artist and Turner Prize nominee.
Mike Nelson’s newly commissioned installation, commissioned
on behalf of Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver, and The Power
Plant, Toronto, presents its audience with the notion of the lone
traveller. Drawing on archetypes such as the fur trapper, the
pioneering explorer, the Beatnik and the biker, Mike Nelson offers
a new reading of the lone traveller, focusing on the significance of
these characters in the context of masculinity and spirituality.
Nelson is best known for his architectural installations, which
unfold as narrative structures, where the viewer moves through
seemingly abandoned rooms devoid of figures. This publication
will draw out Nelson’s frequent return to the figure, namely
the archetypal lone wanderer, who underlays much of his work
whether as an implied trace or as sculptural assemblages.
While drawing from a wide range of Nelson’s work, the book will
spotlight The Amnesiacs, a serial work begun by the artist in 1996
and revisited for these exhibitions through two new commissions.
To accompany this new body of work, which comprises Nelson’s
first solo shows in Canadian institutions, the artist is also producing
an ambitious publication that presents developmental imagery
alongside installation shots of the new installations.

This major new artist’s monograph presents the works of
legendary Canadian painter, sculptor and printmaker, Gordon
Smith. Smith has been making work for decades and is most
famed for his painted works of figurative abstraction, though
he has an accomplished practice in hard edged abstraction
as well as in traditional figurative painting. This book is the
first to present all of Smith’s different styles along with both
contemporary and historical texts about his life and work in
one volume. As such, Gordon Smith is the most comprehensive
publication on this important twentieth and twenty-first century
artist to date.
Something of a West Coast icon, Smith, now 93 years of age,
is a revered figure in Canada and abroad. The impact Smith
has had upon Canadian art is evidenced in the prestigious and
varied collections within which his work is held: The Museum of
Modern Art, New York; the Smithsonian Institution, Washington;
the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa; the Victoria and Albert
Museum, London; to name but a few.
The accompanying exhibition opens at
Equinox Gallery, Vancouver, Canada in
autumn 2014.
This, most recent, publication on Smith’s life and work as an
artist is the definitive edition charting all elements of his rich
and diverse practice, a worthy testament to one of Canada’s
most significant artists, and one as prolific today as ever before.

This visually arresting book details the intriguing 11 year history
of Iran’s hosting of the elite of the art world’s avant-garde.
This engaging publication details the 11 year history of the Festival
of Arts Shiraz-Persepolis which ran annually between 1967
to 1978 and centred on the groundbreaking and controversial
programming of preeminent international performance, music,
dance and film to become the most radical intercultural crucible
of any commissioning festival in history.
The Festival of Arts liberated a contested modern space in Iran
and at the same time initiated and defined a utopian post-colonial
writing back across the fault-lines of the Cold War. It became an
artistically pioneering world stage proposing a new cultural model
for a post-colonial necessity — the first global exhibition predating
the 1986 Havanna Biennale by nearly two decades. The process
found a natural ally in the avant-garde and the Festival became
a haven for artist from all over the world experimenting with
new forms and engaging with rituals and traditions of the nonEuropean canon.

Performed against a mixture of cinematic backdrops, from
the ruins of Persepolis to open-air and site specific locations
across the city, the artists played to an audience to whom they
were predominantly alien. During this decade such luminaries
as Fernando Arrabal, Munir Bashir, Peter Brook, John Cage,
Tadeusz Kantor, Merce Cunningham, Jerzy Grotowski, Arthur
Rubinstein, Ravi Shankar, Uma Sharma, Andrei Serban, Karlheinz
Stockhausen, David Tudor, Bob Wilson, and Iannis Xenakis, would
take to the stage. With an aim to showcase and ultimately foster
the artistic development of Iran, local artists of multiple age and
discipline performed alongside these world names. Despite the
Festival’s permanent cancellation at the onset of the Revolution in
1978 and its condemnation by post-revolutionary cultural policies,
its creative legacy can still be noted prominently today.

This provocative publication charts the work of artist, writer, and
teacher, A Laurie Palmer whose output concerns itself with the
politics behind the nature of matter.
In The Aura of a Hole explores the work of A Laurie Palmer
an ar tist, writer, and teacher. Her work is concerned, most
immediately, with resistance to privatisation, and more generally,
with theoretical and material explorations of matter’s active
nature as it asserts itself on different scales and at different
speeds. Her work takes various forms — as sculpture, installation,
public projects, and writing.
This publication focuses specifically on a decade-long project
Palmer undertook — an extended exploration of mineral
extraction sites in the US. Through her narration, the project
discusses themes of the raw scientific and mechanical
aspects of the industry, alongside environmental justice, First
Nation rights, industrial agriculture, chemical weapons, low
temperature physics, the Cold War, the Iraq War, biotechnology,
bio geochronology, nanotechnology, Homeland Security,
globalised trade, global warming and unemployment.

The creative interaction and exchange between them spans
from 1964–1970 when the latter emigrated to Paris. Krasinski
developed in these years his seminal concept of the “Blue Line”,
a strip of scotch tape extending horizontally in a given space.
In 1964 Krasinski enacted his piece Spear in a Field, which was
the first ‘happening’ that his friend Kossakowski, originally a
reportage photographer, captured with his camera. The illusion
the artists created in the remaining photo series was much like
he would enact in his pivotal piece J’ai Perdu La Fin!!! in which
he pretends to have ‘lost the end’ of a cable cord.
This exciting publication in collaboration with Broadway 1602,
New York, presents Krasinski’s ‘happenings’ and mise en scènes
in the first comprehensive volume focusing specifically on his
partnership with Kossakowski. Never intended for an audience,
but strictly composed for Kossakowski’s camera, the result was
an original marriage of conceptual restraint and laconic humour.

THE LADY FROM THE SEA
PHOTOGRAPHER: THOMAS ZANON-LARCHER
DIRECTOR: JULES WRIGHT
A unique multi-displinary approach to Ibsen’s seminal work by
renowned fashion photographer Thomas Zanon-Larcher and
theatre director Jules Wright.
Inspired by Henrik Ibsen’s The Lady from the Sea, the photographer
Thomas Zanon-Larcher and theatre director Jules Wright
continue their series of narratives realised in performance,
film and photography, with actors placed in environments
external to the conventional set or stage.
Taking as their lead the notion that both the play’s protagonist
Ellida and her lover originate from the far nor th, ZanonLarcher and Wright set out beyond the Arctic Circle, to ISFjord Radio—the last departure point for the great solitar y
polar explorer s. W ith such an approach, the director,
photographer and actors establish the authenticity of solitude
emphasised within the essence of Ibsen’s characters and
the kind of driven isolation that perpetuates the classical
Norwegian constitution.
The book details Zanon-Larcher’s photographic methodology
and Wright’s creative approach, as well as the sheer presence
of the landscape itself. Beautifully shot on 6:12 colour and 5:4
black and white film, the panoramic images grapple with the
beauty and fragility of the Arctic, telling more than simply the
story of Ellida. These, together with in-depth discussions with
Wright and reproductions of Zanon-Larcher’s sketchbooks,
act to deepen our understanding of a unique and compelling
approach to a theatrical masterwork.

The significance of the book’s story is as much an important
record as it is an inspiration to any burgeoning artist or curator.
To look at the self-created etymology behind the name says as
much; Beaconsfield: to offer a space for artists and audiences
to experience high quality (hence ‘beacon’), challenging, new
artworks in a wide range (hence ‘field’) of contemporary visual art
media through commissions, group exhibitions, performances,
publications and events.
The fourth book in collaboration with the Royal College of Art
Photography Department showcasing the cutting-edge work of
these nascent artists.
Highly illustrated, the publication features original material
by this new generation of artists, specifically conceived and
produced for the publication. The works are presented alongside
texts by distinguished artists and academics, and edited by the
renowned photographer Rut Blees Luxemburg.
Science and Fiction charts the very cutting edge of contemporary
photography and will inspire anyone with an interest in photography,
moving-image and contemporary artistic practices.
Rut Blees Luxemburg is a Tutor at the Royal College of Art
as well as an internationally renowned photographer, known
for producing vibrant photographs of urban landscapes and
environments at night.
Olivier Richon is Professor of Photography at the Royal College
of Art, London.
An accompanying pop-up exhibition opens at WORK Gallery, London, in
conjunction with the Royal College of Art Summer Show in May 2014.
Published in partnership with the organisation, with generous
image sections and contributions from those involved in
Beaconsfield’s programme over the years, such as Bob and
Roberta Smith, Gustav Metzger, Paul Hobson, and Julian
Stallabrass, Chronic Epoch relays the stor y of a space
constructed with a desire to “fill a niche between the institution,
the commercial and the ‘alternative’”. The book shows how
Beaconsfield has sustained its own ethical and artistic standards
throughout and fostered a fresh take on contemporary art in
the process.

Originally conceived for the Council of Europe, the successful

under the moniker of the European Economic Community.
Designed by Arsène Heitz, a French draughtsman at the CoE,
and Paul Lév y, a Jewish-Belgian Holocaust sur vivor who
worked for many years as the council’s Director of Information,
the finalised design was presented to the CoE in 1955 at
its headquar ters in Strasbourg, Heitz’s hometown. This
publication profiles the documents, design proposals and written
correspondence between Heitz, Lévy and further collaborators
that would form the painstakingly diplomatic development of an

of the EU in the base colour of the flag was compiled. These
collated monochromes as such become a map themselves of
the socio-economic shift within EU member communities, an
embodiment of the disappearing textile industries of Europe.
Conversely, the blue of these monochromes can be viewed as
a physical representation of the EU’s modernist tradition; its
purity laws, its longing for transcendence and an optimistic
belief in utopian potential.
MATT MULLICAN
THE MEANING OF THINGS
The fifth volume of the series in collaboration with Fondazione
Antontio Ratti, this is a fascinating exploration of Matt
Mullican’s focus on the relationship between perception
and reality.
Matt Mullican is an American artist and a member of the
“Pictures Generation” along with such artists as Troy Brauntuch,
Jack Goldstein, David Salle, Jim Welling, Sherri Levine, Cindy
Sherman, Louise Lawler, Richard Prince and Robert Longo. His
practice addresses systems of knowledge, language, meaning,
and signification whilst focusing in upon the relationship between
perception and reality, in a sense, the seeing of something and its
subsequent representation.
The Meaning of Things documents the results of Mulligan’s
summer school at the Fondazione Antonio Ratti in Italy. The
exhibition revolves around Untitled, a set of four banners made
by Mullican for his solo exhibition at Le Magasin, Grenoble, 1990,
and then shown only one more time due to the large size of each
element comprising the work.
The banners show a repertoire of stylised figures that, following
a code elaborated by the artist, summarise key aspects of reality
and human experience. The visual language of the banners
is extremely immediate, similar to that of commercial logos,
urban signage or heraldry. The Meaning of Things contributes
to the understanding of the processes engaged in by the artist,
by looking at the collaborative nature of the workshops and
the collective narrative that is created, forming an invaluable
resource for students, curators and artists alike.

ART AND THE INTERNET
CONTRIBUTORS: JOANNE MCNEIL, DOMENICO QUARANTA, NICHOLAS LAMBERT
Art and the Internet is a much-needed visual survey of art
influenced by, situated on, and taking the subject of the Internet
over the last two and a half decades. From the early 1990s
the Internet has had multiple roles in art, not least in defining
several new genres of practitioners, from early networked art
to new forms of interactive and participatory works.

Art and the Internet features newly commissioned essays about
the history, development and future of Internet art from leading
writers and curators in the field. Alongside these are a selection
of reprinted essays and manifestos, along with new interview
material, offering an alternative chronology of the Internet via
the shifting ‘of the time’ opinions from the late 1980s until today.
The changing role of the artist online is discussed in a concluding
essay examining how the multifarious global art worlds use
the Inter net, from ac tivism to voyeur ism to mar keting,
featuring organisations such as Rhizome and e-flux and their
predecessors, illuminating how the Internet has irrevocably
altered the ar t world as a whole. All of the above are fully
illustrated by the work of leading practitioners in the field today.
Organised into chapters including “Net.Art”, “social mediainfluenced art” and “post-Internet art”, Art and the Internet is
an essential book for all those interested in contemporary art,
whether directly involved in the field or not.
COLOUR IN THE MAKING
FROM OLD WISDOM TO NEW BRILLIANCE
CONTRIBUTORS: PHILIP BALL, MARK CLARKE, CARINNA PARRAMAN
Colour in the Making is a visual history of art and design told
through the materials of colour—from the discovery and use of
early earth pigments to organic chemistry and into contemporary
dyes, inks, printing techniques and manufacture.
The book is structured around various essays providing the
historical and technical background for studies, which illuminate
art and science collaborations and innovations in the field of
colour and the artists’ projects they produced. Mark Clarke,
a colour conservation specialist working with the Winsor and
Newton Archive, discusses innovations in colour up until the
Renaissance. Science writer Philip Ball focuses on the advances
in organic chemistry in the nineteenth century, whilst writer and
research fellow Carinna Parraman examines the future of inks
and paint making.
These essays are accompanied by studies such as Louis Jaques
Thenard and the French government’s invention of “French
Blue”, leading to Yves Klein’s obsession with the same colour;
Cézanne’s experiments with Goethe’s theories; Joseph Albers’
colour experiments leading to Bridget Riley’s colour fields and
new developments in digital colours, which have led to works
such as Cory Arcangel’s arresting Photoshop colour gradients;
and Jessica Stockholder’s immersive work Color Jam, colouring
the streets of Chicago.

Satanism and aggressive nationalism. In reality, it is a constantly
evolving vehicle for musically and ideologically progressive groups
and artists, one that is increasingly forward thinking despite
maintaining a purity of expression that is tied to the past.

COSMIC ROCK AND ITS LEGACY

A fascinating overview of a hugely influential movement.
Q Magazine
The late 1960s in West Germany was a period of breakthroughs,
upheavals and reversals. Out of this climate, a music scene
exploded that would forever change the face of Western rock.
Krautrock encompassed a very wild and diverse range of sounds,
attitudes, and past musics, from free jazz to Karlheinz
Stockhausen, from Dada to Fluxus, from German Romanticism
to the Mothers of Invention. From the relentless drumming of
Amon DüülI, to the Eastern mysticism of Popol Vuh and the sonic
assaults of Conrad Schnitzler, Krautrock traces the history of
this phenomenon.
With photos, posters, record covers and rare visual material,
and testimonials from Gavin Russom (Delia and Gavin/Black
Meteoric Star), Plastic Crimewave, Stephen Thrower (Coil/
Cyclobe) and Ann Shenton (Add N to (X)), this is an essential
compendium to a music whose spirit and ideas still inspire
contemporary culture.

Out of Hand: Mater ializing the Postdigital examines the
increasingly important role of digital fabrication in contemporary
art, design, and architecture practice from 2005 to the present.
New levels of expression will demonstrate the reciprocal
relationship between art and innovation as seen through the lens
of emerging twenty-first century aesthetics. Out of Hand, the first
publication to examine this interdisciplinary trend, accompanies
a major exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design, New York,
bringing together for the first time an array of seminal works by
more than 80 international artists, architects, and designers,
including Ron Arad, Barry X Ball, Wim Delvoye, Zaha Hadid,
Stephen Jones, Anish Kapoor, Marc Newson, Hiroshi Sugimoto,
and Frank Stella.
The book is organised around six themes. Magnus Larsson’s
proposed mobile 3D printer in “Modeling Nature” uses microbes
to create habitable structures from desert sand. In “New
Geometries” mathematical formulae inform the creation of
intricate designs with distinctive angles and whorls. Historical
decorative styles inspire the artists in “Rebooting Revivals” to
rework the past for the present. Movement, sound, light, and
other sensory elements serve as the basis for the works in
“Pattern as Structure”: the form for Lucas Maassen and Dries
Verbruggen’s Brain Wave Sofa derives from the designers’
brainwave pattern while thinking of “comfort”. “Remixing the
Figure” presents artists who engage with new technology
through tr aditional and moder n figur ation. Finally, in
“Processuality” conceptual works, such as Allan McCollum’s
The Shapes Project, which configures a unique heraldic device
for each person on the planet, address possibilities of limitless
mass customisation.

Charles Edenshaw is the first survey of this iconic figure in
Northwest Coast art, produced in collaboration with the Vancouver
Art Gallery to coincide with a landmark exhibition of Edenshaw’s
work. The book brings together the largest number of his works
ever assembled and offers a rare opportunity to view his legacy.
Working in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries,
Edenshaw was an exceptional carver of wood, silver and argillite,
imbuing traditional Haida design with an innovative and elegant
personal style. Recognised in his time as an outstanding
carver, his work continues to be a great inspiration, and his
remarkable objects tell us much about Haida culture, with a
sophistication that is befitting of their aesthetic achievements.
Charles Edenshaw provides a useful context to the Haida
tradition and explores Edenshaw’s roots, including interviews
with his descendants still based in the region. His distinctive
style is addressed, along with issues surrounding the attribution
of Haida artworks. Much attention is also given to his legacy
and subsequent influence on current art; the book includes
interviews with contemporary artists Raymond Boisjoly, Neil
Campbell, Robert Linsley and Isabel Rorick. Packed with
lavish illustrations and beautiful colour photography, this title is
essential for anyone with an interest in Northwest Coast art.

in conjunction with New York’s Sculpture Center, a not-forprofit arts institution dedicated to experimental and innovative
developments in contemporary sculpture.
Inquiries into Contemporary Sculpture aims to explore what
constitutes, excites, entangles, and necessitates ideas and
questions around sculpture. Each volume in the series chooses
a different line of inquiry into the medium, aided by a select
group of artists, curators and historians.
Where is Production? is an exploration into the medium’s modes
and sites of production. It questions the meaning of the word
“production” itself, what it encompasses, and how it informs and
leads sculptural practice today; featuring insightful essays by
Sculpture Center staff: Mary Ceruti, Executive Director and Chief
Curator and Ruba Katrib, Curator; alongside artist Carol Bove
and Michelle Kuo, Editor-In-Chief of Artforum magazine.
A thought-provoking study of contemporary sculpture, Where is
Production? is a close look at the work of this important New York
institution, and the perfect companion for those interested in the
field of sculpture, contemporary art and theory.
ON NOT KNOWING
HOW ARTISTS THINK
EDITORS: ELIZABETH FISHER, REBECCA FORTNUM
On Not Knowing brings together contemporary artists and thinkers
from a range of disciplines to explore the role of ‘not knowing’
within the creative process. The state of ‘not knowing’ or engaging
with the unknown is an important aspect of all research. For
artists it is crucial, as the making process often balances a strong
sense of direction with a more playful or meditative state of
exploration and experimentation.
How far does our openness to aesthetic experience, and new
forms of knowledge, depend on our capacity to enter and indulge
states of wonder and awe, doubt and failure, ignorance and play?
How critical are these conditions to the creative process? How do
artists invite the unknown into their creative practice?
“When we talk about not knowing, we often mean not being
able to recognise or identify something, not being able to bring
concepts to bear to determine an object or goal. But in the
absence of knowing what something is or where we are going,
we draw on many other kinds of knowledge to open paths
forward: practical knowledge, in the Kantian sense of knowing
what to do, our moral sensitivity and judgement; bodily knowledge
born of habit and acculturation; as well as what Plato calls techne,
the craft and skill involved in making. [...] Letting go of conceptual
knowledge can be the condition for renewing the activity of
thought, as well as for bringing other kinds of knowledge into
play.” Dr Rachel Jones.

THE METABOLIC LANDSCAPE
PERCEPTION, PRACTICE AND THE ENERGY TRANSITION
AUTHORS: GINA GLOVER, GEOF RAYNER, JESSICA RAYNER
The Metabolic Landscape navigates the disciplines of art, science
and philosophy to picture and interpret the planet’s current state
of ‘metabolic distress’. Humankind’s search for more powerful
sources of energy to sustain an urbanising existence has created
an energy transition that, while hugely beneficial to human
existence, is now being identified as a source of harm. Just as
metabolic disease refers to energy-sourced medical problems,
so too the planet, the authors propose, is showing increasing
signs of metabolic distress.

The distinctive approaches of each author/artist within the
book allow for a diverse and comprehensive discourse on
these emerging themes of progressive ecological disturbance:
Gina Glover’s work exploits atmospheric weather and ambient
lighting conditions to draw attention to such energetic places
and artefacts as coalfields in the Arctic, nuclear installations
in France and hydraulic fracturing sites in the USA; Jessica
Rayner observes how theories of the sun have varied according
to the symbolic or scientific precepts of the day, drawing
comparison between manufacturing, properties of the sun and
changing theories of energy; and Geof Rayner constructs an
accompanying textual narrative which shows how the energy
transition has profound evolutionar y consequences, not
only for ex ternal nature, but how we see and interpret
the landscape.
The Metabolic Landscape is a beautifully illustrated, fascinating
and engaging exploration of the unfolding relationship between
energy and the landscape, and our interpretation of it.

that shifts from artistic concerns to more explicitly political
subjects, and to the complex spatial relationships that were
involved in the development of the authors’ dialogue.
Consisting of a set of textual and visual fragments that move
the reader between different forms of representation and
knowledge, the uncertainty that defines the political conditions
explored is echoed in the sense of indeterminacy created by
the book’s format. The effect is one of semiotic and semantic
plurality, which allows for open explorations. Involving paintings
by David Reeb and photographs and articles by both authors, the
book also includes works by other visual producers, including
Hans Haacke, Peter Kennard, Miki Kratsman, and ActiveStills.

An accompanying exhibition,
Phil Bergerson: Emblems and
Remnants of the American
Dream, runs at the Ryerson
Image Centre, Toronto, Canada,
from 22 January – 13 April 2014.
American Artifacts is a complex and poetic photographic portrait
of America as it simmered its way through the first decade of
the twenty-first century. It reflects that span of years some
have called the “lost” decade. American Artifacts is a personal
exploration by an empathetic neighbour—the Canadian
documentary photographer Phil Bergerson (Born Toronto, 1947).
Much like the discovery process of the archaeologist, Bergerson
describes his approach as sifting through the remains of a
culture—sifting through the shards of artifacts left behind
by a rushing humanity as it made its way through the streets
of a tumultuous America. His book is a collection of these
message shards—often ironic, sometimes full of pathos. All
represent the concerns of a struggling humanity: their fears,
desires, and hopes with many images vibrating between reality
and metaphor. A variety of recurring themes are reflected in
photographs of shop window displays, and in the objects and
signs from the forgotten corners of the hundreds of towns and
cities he visited in bringing about this body of work.
In organising his 120 colour photographs to best portray the
complexity of America, Bergerson turned to the art of sequencing
as his primary expressive vehicle. Working in the sequencing
traditions of Walker Evans, Robert Frank and Nathan Lyons,
Bergerson has orchestrated the dynamic interplay between
several themes to project their multi-layered meanings.
ARCHIVE: IMAGINING THE EAST END
EDITOR: ZELDA CHEATLE
CONTRIBUTORS: SUSAN ANDREWS, NICHOLAS HAEFFNER
The East End Archive at the Cass holds projects or bodies of
work from artists and photographers such as Jo Spence and Tom
Hunter, aspects of whose practices have been concerned with the
East End of London and its diaspora; the East End is seen as both
a geographic and conceptual space, interpreted as a perpetually
shifting frontier where dreams, dissent and transformation
co-exist. Traditional and historic views together with the newly
fashionable status of certain areas of the East End are also explored.
Archive: Imagining the East End comprises a wide variety of
approaches to photographic work in representing the area drawn
from preliminary deposits within the archive. It is accompanied
by essays by leading academics, photographers and archivists
which investigate the concept of a photographic archive in
historical and theoretical contexts.
“Cities have always presented opportunities for transformation….
The East End—our east end—has been, at least since Gustav
Dore’s London Pilgrimage of 1872, a territory perpetually in need
of transformation, vicious and semi-criminal, a dark continent
off-limits to all but the most intrepid missionaries and pioneers.
As parts of it have succumbed to gentrification by way of romantic
ruin, so ‘East End’ has moved outwards, beyond Shoreditch,
beyond Whitechapel, beyond the Isle of Dogs, beyond Hackney. In
fact ‘East End’ is in reality a state of mind, the necessary frontier of
‘regeneration’ wherever that may be…”. D Howells. Activate 4, 2008.

Lace: Here: Now tells the story of how lace continues to inspire,
fascinate and excite contemporary practice in all spheres of art
and design. The prolonged fascination with lace is of particular
interest in the city of Nottingham where the machine lace
industry emerged and flourished during the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries. Nottingham once stood at the centre of
the world’s lace industry and this legacy is still evident within
its built environment. The area called the “Lace Market” bears
all the architectural evidence of this commercial textile activity
demonstrating the importance of machine made lace to the
identity of Nottingham and beyond.

THE DECORATED SCHOOL
ESSAYS ON THE VISUAL CULTURE OF SCHOOLING
EDITORS: JEREMY HOWARD, CATHERINE BURKE, PETER CUNNINGHAM
The Decorated School: Essays on the Visual Culture of Schooling
is a new multi-text publication discussing the relationships
between architects, artists, educators and school users. It
reclaims mural painting, sculpture and other forms of ar t
in school buildings as an international phenomenon, as a
pedagogic tool, and as a realm of significant yet liminal public
art. Bridging disciplines and approaches the authors reveal that
‘decorated’ goes beyond surface to fabric, design and education.
Studies in this book focus on the modern era and public schooling,
and trace developments from the early days of mass education to
the present. Questions of ideology, aesthetics, child development
and taste come to the fore as the authors take us through an
impressive range of emotive and colourful works.
The subjects covered touch on didactic issues from across the
globe, encompassing aesthetic, historical and philosophical
concerns.This beautifully illustrated book is an outcome of
a two-year international research network project funded by
the Arts and Humanities Research Council and led by Catherine
Burke and Jeremy Howard.

ANARCHY IN THE ORGANISM
EDITOR: SIMEON NELSON
Anarchy in the Organism is an in-depth reader exploring a variety
of discourses derived from responses to Simeon Nelson’s
affecting art installation of the same name. As the artist-inresidence at the UCLH integrated Macmillan Cancer Centre,
Nelson engaged with ideas of complexity theory, cybernetics,
philosophy of science and human biology to create a work
featuring four simultaneous algorithmic videos and eight–speaker
‘whispering windows’ audio diffusion. The public installation
focused on imagining cancer as a complex adaptive system
arising within the body, investigating what properties of growth
and development the disease shares with social, cultural and
natural arenas.
Simon Walker-Samuel, Jorge Castillo-Sepúlveda & Francisco
Tirado, Monia Brizzi and Gilly Angell all offer contemplatory
essays, with the book also offering expositional texts: notes on
the installation’s musical accompaniment by the composer Rob
Goodman; and notes on the scientist and artist responsible for
the piece’s video coding, Nick Rothwell.
Anarchy in the Organism presents integrative ways of looking at
disparate phenomena to confront the possible meanings of cancer.

Poet-Linc: poetry slam is the unique documentation of a contest
created to celebrate an untapped pool of talented young New
York artists composing original poetry around a central theme:
“I have a voice”. Collated with the Lincoln Center for the
Per forming Ar ts and non-profit organisations from each
of the city’s five boroughs, the initiative was divided into three
thematically diverse rounds—Declarative Poem, Narrative Poem
and Free Verse/Free Style—over an intensive six-week period. The
competition comprised a fierce series of ‘battles’ between the
separate community organisations involved, each competing for
just two spots in the Grand Slam Final.
Poet-Linc: poetry slam contains over 100 poems from the stars
of the series, alongside work from established world names
such as Darian Dauchan, Erik Maldonado and Shanelle Gabriel,
as well as critical texts on the medium and the season. The
poems themselves portray a varied and illuminating survey into

Over the last decade, the work of Greek-born artist Kalliopi
Lemos has exposed the wounding of human dignity. In her latest
exhibition I Am I Between Worlds and Between Shadows, Lemos
focuses on the experiences of women and the frequent abuse of
their self-respect, believing that dignity is an inherent quality in
and an essential part of every human being.
Comprising commissioned text and colour imagery, the book
reveals the dual processes of art and the occult as tied up in a
seemingly never-ending quest to uncover ‘truths’. Art is seen as a
magical process, in which objects, images and ideas become
transformed through the mutual belief of the artist and viewer.
The roles that Judd adopts examine this fusion of practices,
often positioning himself as the initiate, at the fulcrum between
immersion and separation.
Communion includes essays by Emma Cocker, Senior Lecturer in
Fine Art, Nottingham Trent University; Alun Rowlands, Lecturer
in Fine Art, Univeristy of Reading; John Slyce, Senior Lecturer
and Research Tutor, Royal College of Art, London; and Pandora
Syperek, Department of History of Art, University College London.

Kalliopi Lemos is a Greek sculptor, painter and installation artist
based in London. Lemos studied at the Byam Shaw School of Art
and at Central Saint Martins, and her work studies the narrative
of journeys, displacement and the politics of forced migration.
Navigating in the Dark documents a series of exhibitions of Lemos’
work at three international venues, with the exhibitions being a
culmination of her work over the past decade. The large-scale
installations explore themes of physical and spiritual migration,
and are presented alongside each other in full-colour image for
the first time.
Additionally, five texts explore her work and methodology.
Arthur C Danto discusses each installation in relation to
wider themes; Jim Fitzgerald carefully obser ves each of
the installations and their particular qualities with attention
to Lemos’s Greek heritage; whilst Simon Critchley presents
the wider themes of the artist’s work from a philosophical
viewpoint. The book also includes an introduction by Curator
Maria Maragou and a discussion between Lemos and theatre
director Theodoros Terzopoulos.

The use of text can be seen in some of the most avant-garde
artwork of the twentieth centur y. René Magritte used it as
an instrument for Surrealist subversion when he inscribed his
painting with the statement “Ceci n’est pas une pipe”, while Marcel
Duchamp’s readymades established a linguistic basis for the
artwork in which titling, nomination and concept were prioritised.
In the late 1960s and 1970s, artists such as John Baldessari,
Martha Rosler, Lawrence Weiner and Joseph Kosuth helped codify
the completely new boundaries of what constitutes art.

to the art form, celebrating drawing as ‘the process of seeing
made visible’.
From studying our relationship with drawing right from our earliest
encounters with it as children, before a distinction between
writing and drawing is made, the book explores the freedom of
expression that drawing allows. Drawing Projects profiles ten key
artists and illustrators—revealing their working environments and
practices—including Dryden Goodwin, Cornelia Parker, Claude
Heath, William Kentridge and Keith Tyson; with each artist
commenting on the value of drawing in their own work.
Drawing Projects also includes 15 projects for the reader to

A mesmerising journey through the city. The Telegraph
Mapping London: Making Sense of the City is the best-selling
anthology of over six centuries of London maps, tracing the
mesmerising evolution of the city and exploring the personal and
social conditions of its inhabitants as history unfolds.
The book is a cartographic journey, charting the influence of
Roman city planning, Saxon feudalism, Medieval tumult, imperial
hubris, contemporary town planning, and more, on this great
metropolis. In this comprehensive survey the maps are allowed to
speak for themselves, revealing not only their political and social
context, but also the dreams of their makers and the drama of
their creation. Often these maps are objects of great skill and
beauty with the names of the greatest of their makers still revered
today, such as Ralph Agas, John Cary, John Nash, Joseph Cross,
Richard Horwood, Dr John Snow and Wenceslaus Hollar.

KENNETH ANGER
A DEMONIC VISIONARY
AUTHOR: ALICE L HUTCHISON
My films consist of a series of idealisms reflected in the idea of
beauty. Now beauty can be a terrible thing, beauty can be twisted
and abused. Kenneth Anger
Artist and filmmaker Kenneth Anger is a counterculture icon,
with a career spanning over 60 years—from the classic Fireworks,
1947, lauded by Jean Cocteau and Tennessee Williams, to the
influential Scorpio Rising, 1963, to more recent projects not
discussed in detail until now.

Alice L Hutchison sets Anger’s work within the social and
artistic context of the twentieth century—from the bohemian
world of Cocteau’s Paris of the 1940s and 1950s to psychedelic
London in the late 1960s to Anger’s hometown of Hollywood,
made infamous in his Hollywood Babylon books. With many
new reproductions, Kenneth Anger provides an essential
introduction to one of the pioneers of independent filmmaking.
Alongside the text by Hutchison, this publication consolidates
English and French texts as well as interviews with Anger,
alongside commentaries on his work by Stan Brakhage, Anaïs
Nin, Samson De Brier, Jonas Mekas and Carolee Schneemann.

arts on his films. Lavishly illustrated with film stills and never
before seen photographs, Tarkovsky also includes an illustrated
filmography and cinematic timeline.
Contributions include the first ever English translation of

GIUSEPPE PENONE
THE HIDDEN LIFE WITHIN
EDITOR: MATTHEW TEITELBAUM
AUTHORS: JOHN BENTLEY MAYS, GERMANO CELANTE, DIDIER SEMIN
Conceptual sculptor Giuseppe Penone’s work is primarily
concerned with the relationship between man and nature.
Belonging to Italy’s Ar te Povera movement in the 1960s
and 70s, Penone uses simple materials from everyday life to
unsettle the boundaries between art and nature, and to point
out the interdependence among organic life forms. He expands
the sculptural process by introducing a ‘natural dynamic’,
transforming the sculpture into an essential form, which takes
shape naturally, with nature used to explore the mysteries of
time and our existence.

THINKING IS MAKING
PRESENCE AND ABSENCE
IN CONTEMPORARY SCULPTURE
EDITOR: MICHAEL TAYLOR
AUTHORS: MARTIN HERBERT, FIONA MACDONALD, MATILDA STRANG
The sculptural object has spent much of the recent past being
made to disappear from view. The word ‘sculpture’ might still
carry connotations of weight, scale and material, yet none of
these things may necessarily be present in any particular work.
Whether lost into a void, left behind or exploded to occupy the
architectural space that once simply contained it, the sculptural
object as the flotsam of an artist’s engagement with process and
materials, seems to have been in a continual state of crisis since
first becoming detached from its plinth.
As for the sculptor, the artist as maker, they can often be seen
performing as magician, orchestrating events and actions which
culminate in the object of our desire, the decorative assistant,
simply vanishing from the stage.
With essays exploring the nature and function of the sculptural
object by Martin Herbert, profiles of past winners of the award by
Fiona MacDonald and a history of the object by Matilda Strang,
Thinking is Making questions both the presence and absence of
the object and its maker within contemporary sculpture.

Critical Dictionary is an ambitious cornucopia of thoughts, images
and illustrations from online art magazine criticaldictionary.com,
in addition to newly commissioned work. Inspired by Georges
Bataille’s “Critical Dictionary”, this title strives to declassify
terms in a playful manner emphasising the open-ended, the
provisional and the unfinished nature of language.
The title alludes to the mock dictionary that Georges Bataille
edited for Documents in 1929 and 1930. Abandoning the
conventional approach of dictionaries and their solely supportive
use of imager y, Critical Dictionar y allows images to act
progressively, with many of the entries illustrated by several
examples leading to an evolving discussion on interpretation.
Critical Dictionar y comprises contributions from ar tists,
illustrators and photographers including Adam Broomberg
and Oliver Chanarin, David Campany, Common Culture, Karen
Knorr, Ann Lee, Jake Walters and Penelope Umbrico. Entries
include Algeria, Civilization, Drone, Error, Forest, Informe,

The Art of Walking: A Field Guide is the first comprehensive survey
of walking as a central tactic, strategy or theme in contemporary
art. An introductory essay identifies breaks and continuities
between ‘walking artists’ now and the pedestrian activities of the
historic- and neo-avant-gardes of the early and mid-twentieth
century, respectively. Subsequent sections deal in depth with
recent art, engaging with different types of walkers including
pilgrims, peripatetic writers and philosophers, dandies, drifters,
marchers, stalkers, tour guides and dog walkers.
Each section is visually led and often entails the active involvement
of contributors including David Bate, Rut Blees Luxemburg, Tim
Edgar, Christian Edwardes, Jan Estep, Simon Faithfull, Hamish

his juxtapositions of photography with monochrome painting. His
work can be considered a reflection of his position as social historian,

literature, the role of the institution, architecture, urban development,
gender relations, environmentalism and civil disobedience.

INSECT THEATRE
PHOTOGRAPHER: TIM EDGAR, AUTHOR: HUGH RAFFLES
Insect Theatre is the result of photographer and lecturer Tim
Edgar’s three-year project examining the insect life in his home
through a close-up lens. With macro photography Edgar is able
to capture the fragile nature of the insects and the conflict in the
chaotic web in which they reside, providing a uniquely personal
and fascinating view of the creatures sharing his domestic space
and the ‘performances’ they play out.
Anthropologist and insect expert Hugh Raffles annotates Edgar’s
project, discussing the life and death situations in the cobweb
and the chaos of the domestic insect world. With four short
texts Raffles makes Edgar’s project easily navigable, pairing the
close observation of natural science with a sense of intrigue and
wonder whilst observing the natural world.
An essential book for those interested in insect studies, natural
science and art photography, Insect Theatre provides an eyeopening commentary on the spectacle of the everyday and the
insects that we live with.

SEEING IS BELIEVING
THE POLITICS OF THE VISUAL
AUTHOR: ROD STONEMAN
Seeing is Believing: The Politics of the Visual is a personal and
analytical investigation into the politics of visual communication,
exploring the complex and reciprocal dynamic between world
and image in our visually mediated society: everyone ‘knows’
images can be false or deceptive, but we all live and work in
constant denial of this idea and its implications. In a world saturated
with media we act as though we are immune to their effects.
The book features six key sections—“History/Politics”; “Art/
Culture”; “Film/Television”; “Products/Possessions”; “The
Quotidian/The Strange”; “Verisimilitude/Delusion”—each
investigating clusters of images to explore differentiated themes
of pictorial operation including photography, graffiti, painting,
film and television.

Internationally renowned artist Krzysztof Wodiczko presents an
ambitious cultural project for the abolition of war, involving the
design and construction of a grand architectural and institutional
supplement that would transform the Arc de Triomphe, Paris,
into the World Institute for the Abolition of War.
His project is a proposal for an international trans-disciplinary
place—one integrated Un-War Memorial—functioning as both
a symbolic structure for inspiring philosophical and political
engagement, and as an activist centre to encourage analytical,
proactive and transformative approaches to the abolitionist process.
As well as an extended essay by Wodiczko, the book is supported
by a text from Douglas Fry, one of the more outspoken advocates
for “the abolition of war”. The book is fully illustrated with upto-date renderings of Wodiczko’s project, documentary visual
material and poignant statistics.

ART
New Wave reveals that there is often more than meets the eye
in the conception and design of flags. From ubiquitous national
flags through to signal flags, as well as flags that make up and
have inspired artistic conceits from Delacroix’s Liberty Leading
the People to Banksy’s shrewd graffiti art, this book also
presents useful general knowledge facts about flags.
Spanning geography, politics, history, culture, design and art and
presented in an accessible and refreshing format, New Wave is a
playfully entertaining exploration of the diversity of flags, as well as
the rituals and communication aspects that inform them.

WORK
EDITIONS
WORK is an independent gallery
and event space based at 10a
Acton Street that presents
a varied interdisciplinary
programme in close collaboration
with innovators in the fields of
art, architecture and design from
around the world.
The AfterWORK Events Series,
produced in conjunction with Black
Dog Publishing and PAPERWORK
Bookshop, is a public programme
incorporating panel discussions,
book launches, artist talks and
film screenings, which provides an
accessible means of stimulating
critical debate around the themes
and practices of exhibiting artists.
WORK Editions are limited edition
prints produced by exhibiting
artists and available for sale
exclusively through the gallery.
