Tatsuya Ariyama - The Shape Of Sound. Photos By Keigo Saito


Little More 2019 ISBN 9784898155080 Acqn 30059
Pb 17x26cm 128pp col ills £30

Tatsuya Ariyama presents 'The Shape of Sound', a book born out of the curiosity of an audiophile
and music lover in search of an answer to the eternal question: what makes "good sound"?
Ariyama, who mainly works in the field of magazines, books, and art direction, wrote and
designed the book. It features interviews and photographs from his travels to Shizuoka, Akita,
Chiba, and even London to meet with people who devote their life to sound. On his quest he
witnessed the process of cutting records, an electric circuit board from 30 years ago, a stylus
shaved out of natural diamond, and the painstaking restoration of record players manufactured 50
years ago.

Teppei Takeda - Paintings Of Painting


United Vagabonds 2019 ISBN 9784908600050 Acqn 30080
Hb 25x30cm 80pp col ills £61.50

Teppei Takeda's abstract approach to painting has attracted a great deal of attention, but until
recently the artist had remained unknown. Takeda first worked at Makoto Saito Design Office, but
in 2005 set up his own atelier in Yamagata to focus on painting. This book features 'Paintings of
Painting', the abstract series of portraits he has produced in the more than ten years since then.
Working with bright colours and thick smears of paint, Takeda renders his subjects' faces
unrecognisable, yet still immediately human. The book is designed by renowned creative director
Fabien Baron, and its cover features a special design that is wrapped in a full-size poster of one
of the paintings.

Laith Mcgregor – Archipelago


Perimeter Editions 2019 ISBN 9780987637116 Acqn 30097
Hb 24x32cm 72pp col ills £42

Laith McGregor's latest publication forges a somewhat unlikely dialogue between the artist's often
divergent processes and aesthetic outcomes. Drawing on two very different but interlinked bodies
of work - McGregor's long-running Island Drawings and more recent Island Collages - the book
juxtaposes the Australian artist's meticulously rendered, monochromatic drawings with his
spontaneous, colour-rich and playfully formal collages. 'Archipelago' skirts a line between artist
book and monograph, wrangling McGregor's works in a loose, intuitive fashion, all the while
affording them the critical attention they demand.

Sense Sound Sound Sense - Fluxus Music, Scores & Records


Danilo Montanari Editore 2019 ISBN 9788885449398 Acqn 30121
Pb 17x24cm 224pp col ills £32.75

Reprinted on the occasion of an exhibition at the Whitechapel Gallery in London, this book
presents the international Fluxus legacy through sound. With works by John Cage, Philip Corner,
Dick Higgins, Alison Knowles, George Maciunas, Claes Oldenburg, Yoko Ono, and others, it
explores the interest of Fluxus artists in music and sound through performance, scores, records,
and objects from the Luigi Bonotto Collection. Their public events challenged conventional form
and content in music, and the approach to music scores was equally radical. Instead of traditional
sheet music, they devised notational systems based on graphics, poetry, and the visual arts.

The Entanglement Of Theory In The Arts


ArtEZ Press 2019 ISBN 9789491444586 Acqn 30122
Pb 13x21cm 192pp £18.50

What do we mean by theory in the arts, and what role does it play in that sense? Theory appears
as an active, transformative, fluid, and communicative element of art practices, and research in
the arts in particular. Theory is the fluid that perfuses and connects the territory of fine art and
design, as well as other art forms such as music, architecture, writing, moving images, dance,
and theatre. At the heart of this publication is the new field of research in theory and the way the
ArtEZ Theory in the Arts research group investigates its possibilities and extends its boundaries.
Editor Peter Sonderen currently chairs the professorship Theory in the Arts at ArtEZ University of
the Arts.

watercolour, lithography and etching, ceramic and metal. He is known for offbeat depictions of
everyday scenes, often including displaced objects, people, and animals. The book features
paintings, prints, drawings, ceramics, and wooden tables inset with ceramic tiles - all of which
explore the domestic space we inhabit. Especially dogs and cats feature prominently in many of
McKenna's works, and act as poignant symbols of companionship and the bond between humans
and animals.

This book is published on the occasion of 'Rhizome and the Dizziness of Freedom', the first solo
exhibition in Italy by artist Mona Osman. The exhibition consists of a series of paintings made
specifically for Collezione Maramotti and developed in parallel to each other. Osman works from
the idea of combining Biblical narratives with existentialist concepts, thereby raising questions
rather than offering answers. Through her painting, she carries out a philosophical and spiritual
investigation into the search for Self, which she believes is impossible to define in terms of the
fixed or absolute understanding of one's own essence. With handwritten texts by the artist.

The work of photographer, filmmaker, and installation artist Ann Kleberg Tham looks at existential
questions through the lens of everyday situations. The artist uses a variety of methods as she
examines how the staged and the documentary intersect, with both studio-based projects and
experimental investigations exploring the tension between the photographic representation and
reality. This volume offers a comprehensive presentation of the Swedish artist's work over the last
two decades, together with a selection of previously published texts on her work, new writings by
Silvana Lagos and Jan Holmgaard, and a conversation with the artist and Marie-France Rafael.

Baum / Jakob Blumenlese


Vexer Verlag 2017 ISBN 9783909090853 Acqn 30261
Hb 21x30cm 178pp col ills £47

This volume is the result of the "Connected in Isolation" project by Jacqueline Baum (1966) and
Ursula Jakob (1955). The two have been working as a collective since 2009, often using a
documentary approach through montage to create a multi-perspective and polyphonic view. Their
focus is on shifting realities, whether in a political and social or personal context of identity. The
image material here has been partly used in its original size. The folding of the printed sheets,
overlaying of image and text, and printing in four basic colours result in a fragmentation of the
depicted flowers. Three interviews enable different perspectives on their composition,
representation, and production.

With their vivid palette and light, dynamic brushwork, the paintings of French fauvist Raoul Dufy
(1877-1953) continue to enchant audiences today. Dufy was also a textile designer, an aspect of
his oeuvre which this catalogue presents in great detail. With works from collections throughout
Japan, it shows elegant, modern paintings for textile patterns and silk fabrics used by early 20th-
century haute couture designers like Paul Poiret. The artist worked in many themes - the sea,
music, flowers, insects, and pure geometric forms - but was also known for his masterful
commercial work, making designs for the textile manufacturer Bianchini-Ferier from 1912 to 1928.

Samurai - Peacekeeping Contributors In Edo Period


Seigensha Art Publishing 2020 ISBN 9784861527517 Acqn 30269
Pb 21x21cm 206pp col ills £26.50

When describing Japanese culture, one of the most common terms that is used, both in Japan
and abroad, is "samurai". Yet the image created by this word varies widely. The samurai were
known by a variety of names, but today these words are not necessarily used with a proper
understanding of their historical backgrounds. This book accompanies an exhibition that
examines the samurai who lived during the Edo period, the time when the modern image of the
samurai was formed, in an attempt to discover their true nature. It looks at their lives and work
through paintings, writings, and photographs, and presents items that have been passed down
through samurai families.

Beauty Of Japanese Art - From Rimpa And Ukiyo-e To Present Art


Seigensha Art Publishing 2020 ISBN 9784861527548 Acqn 30270
Pb 21x21cm 206pp col ills £31

Although it absorbed many influences from China, Japanese art developed along a unique path,
which led to the emergence of a "Japanese style" characterised by simplified expression, clarity,
and a decorative quality accentuated through the use of colour, as well as gold and silver. This
was applied not only to painting but also to crafts associated with everyday life. In particular the
Rimpa school is recognised for innovative approaches and bold compositions marked by a strong
emphasis on ornamentation. This volume is published in conjunction with an exhibition surveying
Japanese art from the perspective of design at the Toyama Prefectural Museum of Art and
Design.

This publication emerges from an effort to better understand the conditions of contemporary art in
disparate places. Featuring new writings in a variety of discursive forms (commissioned essays,
conversations, profiles), the book is organised around three key terms: local time, situated
infrastructure, and "cotranslations". Furthermore, it gathers perspectives and approaches to "the
local" from art initiatives that operate outside of conventional frameworks. As the authors consider
place and context in terms of social, economic, political, and historical circumstances, their
writings also reflect upon these notions as sites for different conceptions of the self in relation to
the world.

This book presents the iconographic research conducted by artist Lauren Tortil over the past

genealogy reaches beyond the principle of lineage. In 460 images, Lauren Tortil articulates her
thoughts through material from various registers: paintings, film extracts, technical drawings,
photographic archives, etc. The reading is accompanied by a booklet with three texts and pictures
annotated by the artist. Exhausting, recontextualizing and shifting its subject beyond the initial
military territory, this book reminds us that listening practices are deeply intra-connected to
politics, science, medicine and art.

'Dig a Pony' is a collection of abstract spaces of thought, in the form of a series of visual narrative
strands by artist Dominik Stauch. It is essentially an artist's book with selected works. Stauch's
entire oeuvre is about the utopia of order, seen in the consistent interaction of colours and forms.
His reduction of basic geometric shapes allows him to experiment conceptually with the latest
techniques. Yet this book subverts the artist's attempts at order through an apparent lack of
planning and a celebration of ignorance. Seemingly random silver overprints impose on the
reproduced artworks, adding an additional layer of efficiency versus nihilism. Includes a text by
Catrina Sonderegger.

by solar panels in the church tower. One triggers a piano to play in the morning, while the other is
aligned so that it catches the afternoon sunlight. The notes are left to chance, a relinquishing of
control by the artist that is also reflected in the four folding screens positioned in the church nave.
A conversation between the artist and Kathleen Buhler and text by Marina Porobic complete the

foundational element in his oeuvre. Essays and an interview with the artist provide insight into
Mattila's works, with contributions from Tomi Moisio, Jean Ramsay, Mike Watson, and
psychologist Gote Nyman.
