Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. With Postproduction, the third and final issue of In Medias Res, Fluentum's research project on the history of its premises concludes by literally taking stock of both the production of and productivity inherent in moving images. At the core of this publication are new essays on film shot in the building: beginning in the mid-1990s, mere months after the US abandoned its West Berlin headquarters, these films formed part of reunified Germany's nascent creative industry, and continued to be made throughout the 2000s. This chronology is speculatively extended by time-based artworks that were commissioned as part of Fluentum's multiyear program series In Medias Res: Media, (Still) Moving, which this publication both documents and further explores through artistic contributions. Though varying in their commerciality, audience, and aesthetic, they similarly employ the material and ideological architecture of the space as a matrix for creating history, allowing one to uniquely trace how the past becomes real through the present.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Katrin. The Tale of a Young Writer is a novel by the artist Unica Zuern (Berlin 1916Paris 1970). It was written in 1953, although it would never be published in her lifetime. This is the first translation of the tale from German into English. Zuern tells the story of fifteen-year-old motherless Katrin, an aspiring writer, who lives with her father, also a writer. The novel is set in an imaginary world, a metropolis called Linit, split into three levels: Oberstadt (Hightown), Mittelstadt (Middletown) and Unterstadt (Lowtown), overlooked by a Volcano where the artists live and crossed by the river Emil. Presented as a book for children, apparently written for her own daughter (named Katrin), Katrin also draws on the personal biography of Zuern herself, in terms of her relationship with her father and the city of Berlin after WWII, and her experience with people on the margins of a society characterised by great tensions.

But they also have a subversive aspect capable of questioning the status quo. Often understood as representations of actual, desired, or imposed social personas, masks hold a special relation to identity, signaling specific attributes and capacities of a personor the lack thereof. [. ] As a symptom of an era of extreme transformation, masking has gained renewed traction and urgency. From the online avatars used for activism, entertainment, or propaganda to the different dynamics either emptying or occupying our streets, practices of caricature, camouflaging, face swapping, masquerading, mimicry, protection, ridicule, social makeup, and transformation have become a staple of our everyday ritualized lives. Could we, therefore, speculate about an ongoing transformation from Machos facial society into a mask(ed) society? Employing and underlining the subversive potential of masking, this exhibition looks into the ongoing radical reshaping of our multiple historical, sociopolitical, gendered, and transcendental identities, inquiring about current processes through which we shape-shift from one to the other.

Compassion and Inconvenience combines artist Vika Kirchenbauers 30-minute video work Compassion and Inconvenience (2024)with its script reproduced alongside stills and audio descriptionsand her essay Instituting Inconvenience and Colonial Relations: The Genesis of European Contemporary Art Institutions in Mid-18th Century London (2025). Both these contributions engage with the historical context of the cultural scene in mid-18th-century London, when the first public presentation of contemporary art took place. In a setting inextricably entangled with early capitalism and British colonialism, an emergent artistic elite fundamentally influenced how, for whom, and under what conditions contemporary art entered the public sphere. As part of this genesis, moral philosophical concepts and artists feelingsmost distinctly around compassion and inconvenienceplayed important parts in inserting imaginings of superiority and constellations of dominance into the core of European notions of art and taste. By deepening into the historical roots of contemporary art exhibitions, this reader examines the conditions under which what we now consider self-evident came into being.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. 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, Michele Graf and Selina Grueter, 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 capitals value-forms eliciting critique and complicity in tandem.

Residencies Reflected looks at international artist residencies with a societal and ecological mind shift, treating both the productive experimentation and artistic freedom they enable and the information about places, environments, and communities that they produce as well as their artistic, poetic, psychological, social roles in the ecological crisis.

The authors are curators, artists, and academics operating in the residency sector.
