Curators of architecture exhibitions are often concerned with the problem of how to present objects that ultimately cannot be brought into the exhibition space. Such shows are often difficult for lay audiences to interpret—little focus is placed on communication. However, there are also architecture exhibits that concentrate on communicating an experience, making it possible to build an intense relationship between the audience and the content on display. The result of a research project organized in 2013 by the faculty of Design and Art of the Free University of Bozen Bolzano, Displayed Spaces focuses on the question of how spaces might communicate architectural ideas in a redevelopment project and its accompanying exhibition proposed for the city of Bolzano, Italy. The book is organized into two sections—the first introduces project criteria and the curatorial considerations on content and its presentation; the second begins with an analysis of the public, with particular attention to the different types of visitors—and demonstrates how spatial engagement can generate a personal relationship between visitor and exhibition. Bringing together essays by theoreticians, curators and practitioners involved in exhibition production, this analysis of contemporary architecture exhibitions concludes by asking what is more important: the experience of the exhibition or its effect on the debate on architecture and its history. Essays by Giovanna Borasi, Anne Holtrop, Wilfried Kühn, Emanuela De Cecco, Something Fantastic, Ilka & Andreas Ruby, Andres Lepik and Tina di Carlo and two interviews with Kersten Geers (OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen) and Maarten Gielen (ROTOR).

Arts for Living offers an alternative, multifaceted history of an iconic cultural institution, The Abrons Arts Center. Located in New York City’s Lower East Side, the center was designed by Prentice and Chan, Ohlhausen, and built during the crisis-ridden 1970s as a community art center with educational facilities for a local low-income population. A rare interview with architect Lo-Yi Chan that elucidates the design process as well as essays by Alan Moore on the East Village art scene that arose out of the 1970s fiscal crisis and Kim Förster on pedagogical programs in architecture for youth in New York are accompanied by a color-photo essay by Jason Fulford depicting the current social life of the arts center. Designed by Geoff Han, and including original archival documentation, Arts for Living is an important architectural case study of a public space designed to foster commu- nity life in a multiethnic, changing neighborhood. July 2015, Softcover 8 x 8 inches, 128 pp, 15 color ISBN: 978-0-9882906-0-0 Retail price: $29.95 COMMON BOOKS, NEW YORK WAPKE FeeNSTRA Vlassenbroek _________ Broekkant A Schelde Riverscape Due to rising sea levels, the landscape between Vlassenbroek and Broekkant in Belgium is fast returning to its original ecology as a riverbed. Inspired by this elusive landscape, Tekenen in Vlassenbroek—a new artist’s project from Wapke Feenstra, co-founder of Myvillages—documents its shifting panorama in a collection of drawings by local workers, fishermen, engineers, architects, artists and visitors to the site. These varied and personal sketches, following in the plein air tradition of the area, render the fleeting landscape much as painters and sketch artists did in the last century. As this part of Belgium once again becomes mud flats and marshes, Feenstra gently records the process in this unique publication. Myvillages is an active international artist collective addressing the evolving relationship between rural and urban in a variety of forms of production. October 2015, Softcover 8 ¾ x 10 ½ inches, 208 pp, Extensive b&w and color ISBN: 978-94-90322-55-7 Retail price: $35.00 JAP SAM BOOKS, THE NETHERLANDS THE PUBLIC INTERIOR AS IDEA AND PROJECT Mark Pimlott In his third publication, The Public Interior as Idea and Project, noted author, artist and architectural designer Mark Pimlott demonstrates how public interior environments are inscribed with cultural ideas across time. Assembled from his lecture series The Architecture of the Interior, at the Delft University of Technology, Holland, Pimlott presents over 200 illustrations organized according to six themes: Palace, Garden, Ruin, Shed, Network and Machine. He explores through the examples included in this volume the canon of the ideas consciously or unconsciously embedded in them. Mark Pimlott’s practice encompasses installation, photography, film, art for public spaces and architecture, with a focus on interiors. He has taught architecture and visual arts since 1986 and is now based out of TU Delft. January 2016, Softcover 6 ¾ x 9 ½ inches, 176 pp, 150 b&w and 30 color ISBN: 978-94-90322-52-6 Retail price: $39.95 JAP SAM BOOKS, THE NETHERLANDS DELFT UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, THE NETHERLANDS 4 Previously Announced 49S CITIE WORKac (Ed.) The much-in-demand 49 Cities, first published by Storefront for Art & Architecture, the internationally recognized NYC center for alternative thinking in art and architecture, is now available in its third edition. This fascinating compilation of “fantastic projections” by architects and planners dreaming of better and different cities ranges from 500 B.C. to the present. With every plan, radical visions were proposed, embodying not only desires but also fears and anxieties of the time. Today, with the failure of the suburban experiment and looming end-of-the world predictions—global warming and waste, post-peak oil energy crises and uncontrolled world urbanization—architects and urbanists find them- selves again at a crossroads. 49 Cities is a call to re-engage cities as the site of radical thinking and experimentation and an invitation to move beyond “green building” towards an embrace of delirious imagination, empowering questioning and re-invention. Essays include Michael Webb, Sam Jacobs and newly added former Ant Farm member Chip Lord. July 2015, 3rd Edition, Flexicover 9 ¼ x 9 ¼ inches, 160 pp, 25 b&w and 125 color ISBN: 978-1-941753-05-7 Retail price: $36.00 INVENTORY PRESS, NEW YORK Frontlist 5 Art + Culture LINDER Radical feminist and well-known punk and post-punk provocateur Linder is joined by leading Dada and Surrealism curator/critic Dawn Ades in this extensive monograph of Linder’s provocative photomontages—Linder’s first since 2006. Best known for its replacement of sexualized imagery with domestic commodities, Linder’s work violates, liberates and celebrates the human body while questioning the mechanics of gender and its ties to consumer culture and media. Her surprising, humorous and at times shocking, almost violent images and precise compositions, actively published in 1980s fanzines, expose powerful fantasies and repressions underlying social expectations of identity. Spanning almost four decades, this monograph interweaves numerous photomontage series throughout the artist’s career in over 250 full-bleed illustrations to demonstrate Linder’s brilliant manipulation of disparate source material—from brightly saturated male pornographic imagery to softly lit portraits of ballerinas. In conversation with the artist, Dawn Ades explores the ambiguities and close relationships between domestic and pornographic imagery, fashion and glamour, beauty and repulsion in Linder’s work, and discusses with the artist the early experience of sexual abuse underlying her combination of pornographic and balletic imagery. Together, they discuss Linder’s process of finding, collecting and assembling the montages, and how the artist enlarges her negatives digitally to make the figures unrecognizable. Finally, in exploring the role of narrative and humor and her upcoming performances in which the artist employs a version of automatism, Ades places Linder’s provocative work firmly in the context of the history of photomontage. July 2015, Hardcover 9 x 11 ¼ inches, 270 pp, 255 color ISBN: 978-1-909932-09-8 Retail price: $60.00 RIDINGHOUSE, LONDON Frontlist 7 + QUE 20 ANS APRÈS Collected Words and Images Sabine Folie (Ed.) Director of the Generali Foundation from 2008 to 2014, Sabine Folie helped establish the institution’s reputation for generating new critical discussion on contemporary art through revisiting modernism. This voluminous survey catalog, richly illustrated with photographs and source materials, documents the extensive collection of works acquired during Folie’s tenure. Essays by theorists and artists reflect on contemporary art themes exploring areas such as linguistic devices, the dismantling of representation and the reorganization of pictorial space, the changing roles of artist and museums, the relationship between subject and environment due to globalization and post-colonialism, artistic processing of history and the production of memorial culture. Included are commentary and artworks by Lothar Baumgarten,

  • Only the Good Ones: the Snapshot Aesthetic Revisited
    ONLY THE GOOD ONES: THE SNAPSHOT AESTHETIC REVISITED Press release Galerie Rudolfinum January 24 – April 6, 2014 Exhibition curator: Michal Nanoru Galerie Rudolfinum presents Only The Good Ones, an exhibition tracing the snapshot – the unpremeditated, spur-of-the-moment amateur photograph – as a source of inspiration for art photography. The exhibition presents the work of forty photographers, primarily Americans, plus German photographer of Czech descent Jürgen Teller and British photographer Corinne Day, who introduced the world to Kate Moss. The snapshot, spontaneously capturing a commonplace moment, with minimal direction and little appreciation for artistic or journalistic convention, full of red eyes, severed heads, leaky shutters, and drugstore hyper-saturation, has formed a fundamental part of photographic production throughout the 20th century and remains the default choice for inexperienced owners of compact cameras and phones. But over the years, the snapshot has often inspiration for artistic endeavors not limited by the family photo album lying in a box up in the attic. “Their potential was used by artists who were already involved in the gallery scene, or whose snapshots helped them into the gallery scene,” curator Michal Nanoru explains. “This is why the exhibition is named after the usual series of questions the photo lab used to ask – Glossy or matte? Three and a half by fives? All the pictures or only the good ones? ‘The good ones’ usually meant the ones in which the main object was in focus, ones that even managed to feature some sort of main object that wasn’t the photographer’s huge pink thumb on the lens, or that weren’t just the blank first frames from loading the camera.

  • From the Margins
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE [email protected] FROM THE MARGINS SEPTEMBER 16 - NOVEMBER 15, 2019 Image Credit (clockwise): Benjamin Fredrickson, John Paradiso, Luis Alberto Rodriguez, Shikeith, Paul Mpagi Sepuya, Naima Green, Stanley Stellar WASHINGTON DC - 2019 marks thirty years since the cancellation of The Perfect Moment: Photographs of Robert Mapplethorpe at the Corcoran Gallery of Art. And in this new perfect moment, this appealing anniversary wrapped neatly in black and white, it is easy to draw a line directly from the present back to one point in the past. However, when time is compressed as such, what happens to the in-between? From the Margins aims to examine the foreclosure presented by Mapplethorpe’s legacy by pivoting towards Glenn Ligon’s response to Mapplethorpe. In this way, Ligon’s Notes On the Margins of the Black Book serves as a guide to generating critique. In Ligon’s incisive work, photographs from Mapplethorpe’s infamous Black Book are paired with texts taken from writers such as Ralph Ellison, James Baldwin, and Zora Neale Hurston, as well as quotes from everyday patrons to New York City bars and clubs. In his response to Mapplethorpe, Ligon reveals the inextricability of identity, race, sex, history, and politics. From the Margins views Ligon’s work as critique, but more specifically critique as care. Works on view such as Naima Green’s Pur·suit updates Catherine Opie’s Dyke Deck to better reflect the lived queer experience of today, with 54 card-sized portraits of queer womxn, trans, non-binary, and gender nonconforming people. Stanley Stellar, whose acclaimed photographs of New York City men spanning over four decades, continues to capture vulnerability and sensuality in all their endless manifestations.
