Shows, Signals, Unvernehmen brings together fifteen years of art critic, curator, and artist Christian Egger’s writings, from 2005 to 2020. The texts include interviews with artists such as Jutta Koether, Amelie von Wulffen, and Gelitin, as well as reviews for magazines such as Camera Austria, Springerin, and Spike. This exemplary collection not only provides an overview of the exhibition practice of contemporary art production, primarily in Austria of that period, but also describes critical reflection and an intensive examination of the various varieties, tendencies, and protagonists of these years. More than this, the cumulative effect of the writings is to offer answers to how art provokes a response in the critic that he or she doesn’t understand but so sets out to understand.

In June 2019, Elise By Olsen was invited to deliver the graduation lecture at Elisava School of Design and Engineering in Barcelona. The lecture took form as a loose conversation with professor Saúl Baeza, taking By Olsen’s past, present and future projects as points of departure to navigate freely through her thoughts, approaches and techniques. This conversation ended up taking somewhat of a retrospective look at the way By Olsen has manoeuvred through various projects and creative formulas, reconciling the realms of fashion, art and media, from a very early age onwards.

In its obsession to classify and find an underlying order to nature, one of the objectives of science has been to develop a system of taxonomies for bodies. Through their representation systems and the devices used for their exhibition, cartographies of the
