    "To expand is to reduce, to affirm is to negate; the problem is how not to let any of these moments crystallize into a position or a program via the fetishism that transforms relations into objects. "-Marina Vishmidt Autoreduction is a project initiated by Dora Budor at Progetto (Lecce, Italy) in the summer of 2021 that began with detouring a solo exhibition onto a collaborative course to traverse the itineraries of work, leisure, and consumption in southern Italy. Conceived as a companion to the exhibition, the book features commissioned texts by Noah Barker and Marina Vishmidt, with contributions by all the artists originally participating in the exhibition (Noah Barker, Dora Budor, Michèle Graf and Selina Grüter, Niloufar Emamifar, and Ser Serpas), together with an addendum by Stefano Faoro. In "Case of Enrichment" Noah Barker assesses how the exhibition and region of Puglia instantiate what Luc Boltanski and Arnaud Esquerre have called the enrichment economy - which is characterized by the enrichment of existing things and places and modelling of the consumer on the collector. In "Why Must You Reduce Everything to Money?" Marina Vishmidt casts reduction as a political and artistic strategy; from a form of resistance developed by Italian Autonomists to its aesthetic application as a mode of refusal. Informed by the industrial history of the Salento region, which once featured a heavily feminized and militant tobacco workforce and now sees this legacy sanitized as a heritage for luxury tourism, Autoreduction rides the carousel of capital's value-forms eliciting critique and complicity in tandem.

    "Cinzia Ruggeri's clothes refuse to be just clothes. They are better understood as genre-defying explorations of the human body." -Financial TimesThis is the first major survey of artist and fashion designer Cinzia Ruggeri (1942-2019), a unique figure of Italian postmodernism who moved freely across disciplines. From clothing and accessories to furniture and lighting--as well as sculptural installations often including these objects--Ruggeri created worlds that were continually imaginative, provocative, elegant and unpredictable. Ruggeri founded her own fashion line in 1977 and immediately became known for her use of architecture and geometry, such as the ziggurat and representations of the shape of Italy. During her lifetime she also worked and collaborated with Brian Eno, Occhiomagico, Alessandro Mendini, Casa Vogue, Maison Carven and Studio Alchimia. This catalog offers the most complete overview of Ruggeri's career, thanks to research conducted by MACRO (Museum of Contemporary Art of Rome) in collaboration with the Archivio Cinzia Ruggeri in Milan.

    Each copy of this gorgeous volume on the Italian chair designer comes with a unique cover in resin and canvasCome Stai? is a new collectible artist's book commissioned by Bottega Veneta with Italian designer and architect Gaetano Pesce (born 1939) and Bottega Veneta's creative director, Matthieu Blazy.

With an insightful interview between Pesce and Hans Ulrich Obrist, this limited-edition artist's book explores the ideation and process of the collaboration, uncovering many connections between Pesce and Blazy's creative practices and values. Contributions from Blazy and Maria Cristina Didero document the project's origins and place in Pesce's wider oeuvre, while photographs by Stephen Shore, Sander Muylaert and Matteo Canestraro illustrate the chair's development and production. The volume conveys the Come Stai? design with an atypical profile informed by the chair shape and a cover inspired by its resin and canvas materials. Like the chair itself, each book cover is unique.

    Inventive text collages made from Calvin and Hobbes comicsLos Angeles-based Tony Lewis (born 1986) is part of an exciting generation of artists working to collapse the boundaries between genres and forms. He has quickly established himself in the art world by forming a distinct visual vocabulary that integrates poetry and text with the properties of abstraction. His monochromatic drawings pull from various visual and written sources, ranging from the personal to the political. Separating, rearranging and erasing text, he shifts the way we read to open up new and unexpected meanings.To create Anthology 2014-2016, Lewis deconstructed hundreds of Calvin and Hobbes comic strips, reordered them and shaped them into poems through a process of erasing, editing and rearranging dialogue. Each poem is assembled as a collage of individual drawings that explores the collaborative nature of creativity and authorship, leaving meaning open to a range of interpretations.

    "[...] what I consider to be one of the most important arts of the future: the art of translation. "-Édouard GlissantWith The Poetry of Translation, Kunst Meran Merano Arte investigates the compelling phenomenon of translation. Over seventy works by over thirty artists shed light on the process of translation from novel perspectives. Inspired by the living multilingual environment of South Tyrol and its eventful history of interethnic cohabitation, Kunst Meran Merano Arte offers the ideal context for a research on translation and questions surrounding identity, multiculturalism, and diversity. The essays and visuals included in the book address translation in its complexity: on the one hand, as a source of inclusion, international understanding, creativity, genius and poetry, while on the other as a cause of misunderstanding and exclusion. It is understood here as a creative process through which something new is always created.

    "Chests fall up and down. Particles fow from inside the lungs into the open air. They comingle until pulled again into another chest. Quietly the bodies exchange gasses, heat, moisture. They create their own weather. Currents twist in the air until coming to rest in a pair of lungs, only to be expelled back into the rafters. All this is invisible. Nothing could be seen if there were eyes open to look. " -Becket Flannery Isabelle Andriessen investigates ways to physically animate inanimate (synthetic) materials in order to provide them with their own metabolism, behavior and agency. Her sculptures are agents inhabiting the liminal space between sculpture and performance, composed of materials that act and evolve, seemingly beyond control and often irreversibly. On the occasion of the exhibitions DORM (2021) and BUNK (2021), this publication brings together three distinct voices. Sci-fi writer and art critic Mark Von Schlegell contributes a short story in which an engineer is trying to locate a lost AI as a spaceship hurdles of course. In an autonomous photo series photographer Nikola Lamburov reimagines Andriessen's sculptures, capturing their processes in sticky, eerie and surreal landscapes. Through fractals, liquids, vapors and metals, curator Laura McLean-Ferris's essay traces the state changes that are enacted across Andriessen's works, and in doing so fnds systems of porous entanglement that fourish in a world without humans.

    On an immersive, multi-authored installation led by Clemente at Dallas ContemporaryThis book documents a 2019 installation by Francesco Clemente (born 1952) at Dallas Contemporary, consisting of a mural realized with three Oaxacan artists and two series of large-scale sculptures made with Indian artisans. The site-specific fresco consists of new zodiac signs invented by the artist, including a diver and two snails opposing one another, embellished with sepia-toned waves.For Clemente, these personal zodiac signs serve as symbols of gates, serving perhaps as pathways to spiritual realms or alternate realities. His mixed-media sculptures also feature charged symbols of liminality such as ladders, labyrinths, gates, doors and keys.These recent works reflect Clemente's ongoing exploration of spirituality, mythological narratives and symbolism through surreal, quasi-religious content. The overall dreamlike atmosphere produced by this large-scale installation is firmly in keeping with Clemente's uncanny and fantastic imaginary.
