A collective effort from a vital scene in Kampala, KIKOMMANDO takes its name from Ugandan street food of flat bread and beans. As a ‘food of soldiers’ offering maximum energy for minimum funds, the eponymous mixtape, video series and book project is an equally nourishing and ambitious proposition. It all began in the East African summer of 2018, during a two-month residency at the Nyege Nyege label and collective’s villa, in collaboration with their sublabel Hakuna Kulala. Producer and PAN artist Simone Trabucchi (aka STILL) opened the door to his temporary studio in the city and a crucial cross-cultural collaboration was born.Includes a set of stickers & mixtape download code.

Bandra Sentimental, the new photography book on the block, documents style on the streets of Mumbai. With a cast chosen from the city’s streets, their flamboyant styles intact, the book aims to showcase everyday life in the city. Commonplace to the Indian, sometimes shocking to an outsider, the fearless amalgamation of colour, fabric, pattern, design and cut, worn by men out and about, comes not from wanting to make a statement but a natural sensibility within.

Next Spring is an occasional series of reviews that offers a different approach to the writing of art criticism. Focused on the reading of one film work, each book in the series presents a parallel text on the artwork as both a critical response and literary production. The film selected and the text produced consider ecological issues, environmental concerns, and systematic revisionings. The language of place is given priority and image reproductions used nominally. Paris, May 16, the pilot issue, includes writings by Clara Schulmann, Barbara Sirieix, and Jennifer Teets, as well as a visual essay by Scott Rogers on the invitation of Richard Frater.

Afterwords by Timothy Snyder & Yuval Noah Harari and Nan Goldin. In partnership with the Office of the President of Ukraine and the PinchukArtCentre. Published on the occasion of the 2022 Venice Biennale exhibition This is Ukraine: Defending Freedom, issue seven is the culmination of Yevgenia's war diary, alongside monumental work by Kadan and Khomenko. 'The young artists in this book continue to live and work in wartime Ukraine. They confront the daily onslaught of death and its reckoning. But, in the face of war, they still preserve its unintelligibility. It is by such means that history might walk down another path than the one its perpetrators intend.'.

F LETTER assembles the feminist poets who have palpably changed the Russian language over the last decade. Against the backdrop of state violence and oppression, this is electric dissent in pursuit of a democratic, egalitarian future. A lexicon for revolution worldwide. But this anthology's brilliance lies in its rhythm, energy, and depth of emotion - in its universal relevance rather than applied politics. As Eileen Myles writes of its verse in a foreword to the work, "there are lines like a curse that yodel radiantly out of the toothy mouth of the curser...lines that are just so fucking metonymic in their grace...I've been invited to witness. To smell the crowd and be charged by history."

In 2018, the Museum Villa Stuck presented a comprehensive retrospective with works by the goldsmith and silversmith Rudolf Bott. The book accompanying the exhibition is a 672-page monumental work.

With a 340-page photo report by Jörg Koopmann and Lene Harbo Pedersen, who photographed the objects across Europe at the lenders and in Bott's studio.

You ever read the back of a book and blah blah blah words and more words, and function. Poets depend on the emotional character of words. Manuals depend on the instructiveness of words. Yet words can be pronounced backwards or cut up and given new meaning, they can be looked at for their mathematical value, pondered over how they change in translation or seen as hiding messages within them.

Antny Kreeg 47 and his lady-friend Contruh Guerre (pronounced “Country Girl”) had a rent-controlled apartment on the 112th floor (where the players dwell) of the Empire World Trade Twin Towers and they were never heard of again after 9/11. The ideas in this book were buried under

An immaterial museum, a social sculpture, a laboratory for the museum of the future: this book is an exhibition filled with moments of inspiration on Vienna's legendary museum in progress. With its projects in public and media spaces, the museum has been operating beyond traditional forms of presentation for contemporary art since 1990. museum in progress uses open spaces as temporary spheres of activity for art interventions, on billboards, on building facades, in concert halls, on television and even on board aeroplanes. In much the same way as if it were a laboratory, museum in progress is constantly undertaking cutting-edge experiments with art projects that take effect as a sociopolitical action. The artistic intervention by Adrian Paci makes every copy of the book unique.

The publication is developed as a reflection on books as archives of touch. Visiting our local public library, the Philipp Schaeffer Bibliothek in Berlin, we checked out a selection of books that caught our attention. Bringing them home, we took photographs of handling and reading the books, which we then printed out and inserted back into the books. Following this, we returned books to the library with these hidden pages added.

Handmade is an ecstatic archive of synthetic handmade Artist’s books. Sequenced in no particular order, the project searches for meaning in the future tense through time, text, and touch. Using a combination of images and descriptions, the book chronicles not only a series of material proposals but also a visual discussion between the authors. Constructed entirely from text to AI generated images, the book works with collage at the granular level, speculating on what the form of a book might become when drawn from an impossibly broad archive of digital images.
