Emiliozzi Giordano
La gioia dentro. Ediz. illustrata
ill., ril. Giordano Emiliozzi ha voluto cogliere gli aspetti più quotidiani della vita di una comunità di donne - prima che di monache - votatesi all'eterno, e nei suoi scatti fotografici l'evidente differenza di durata fra l'apparire di volti, di gesti e persino di risate e l'essere ai quali essi appartengono produce una sorta di abisso concettuale o solo - se si preferisce una dizione più lieve - uno scarto di tempi. [...] Il mezzo moderno cerca fra gli interstizi preliminari della clausura; ambirebbe scoprirvi l'anello che non tiene; vorrebbe forse trattenere la stoffa dal divenire intonaco. Emiliozzi però non vi insiste troppo, sicché alla fine la sua stessa macchina forografica si converte, proclamando sommessa in bianco e nero: 'Utere praesenti memor ultimae'.

EMINE CEYLAN.
Emine Ceylan. Climates.= Iklimler. [Album of photographs]. Translated into English by Priscilla Mary Isin.
New English Paperback. Oblong 4to. (22 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 72 p., 62 numerous photos. Emine Ceylan. Climates.= Iklimler. [Album of photographs]. Translated into English by Priscilla Mary Isin. "At every stage of my work, it is 'sensation' which has priority rather than 'information'. These photographs are a reflection of life as I perceive it and do not set out to mirror original realities. However, they do aim to reflect naturalness. By focusing not on the extraordinary but the ordinary which is always within our range of vision, on changeable simplicity, I hope to make contact with the essence in the depths of life." These are the words of Emine Ceylan on her works in this book. She continues: "I would like to hope that these obscure images which are the outcome of long and laborious work will, like the flame of a torch, light up small details in the lives of some people, reveal some small secrets, make a tiny contribution to reinforcing their relations with nature and provoke them to stop for a moment and think about the intrinsic essence of life. I have entitled this album Climates, the name of a book which I love by André Maurois, because I believe that people have 'climates' in the form of transient images just as nature does.". 750 copies were printed.

EMIR RAZ FUNES.
The route of Dor Nassia and other stories. Designed by Savas Çekiç. Edited by Michael Conduit.
New English Paperback. Foolscap 8vo. (19 x 12 cm). In English. 128 p., ills. The route of Dor Nassia and other stories. Designed by Savas Çekiç. Edited by Michael Conduit. These great, primordial creatures, too old even for simple comprehension, screamed in their final, fading moments, the ululation of their death-throes oscillating across the ears of all those who ran, like the young Denis Ardeyevich. Hauntingly, they creaked and heaved, as they, one-by-one, succumbed to the raging fires.". It is a world gone mad. A boy sits upon the imperial throne of Aravarnia, juggling to the fiddle of an immortal sorcerer. In his vision, the Continent convulses; Civil war rages in Khorat, as brother kills brother across the snowy steppes. Armies clash and shatter. Hamlets and cities burn. Pallid children starve within their charred, skeletal wrecks. Khorat bleeds. The Aravarnians march forward, fuelled by Imperial ambition. Banners held aloft, their well-trained armies cross the Ekaterin, into the war-torn fray. The Rebelling Duke, Prestor Volunoff, relents, and retaliates. His forces counter Aravarnia before the city of Dor Nassia. They lose. In a legendary fit of embers and smoke. It is a spectacular victory. Yet great moments are as dull as they get: boring, annoyingly heroic. Unabashedly exaggerated, and filled to its corpulent brim with hyperboles galore. This is not the story of that great victory. This, is the story of what came after.

Emmanuel Alloa / Yael Bartana, Erika Balsom, Juli Carson
Yael Bartana, This first monograph dedicated to the work of Israeli-born artist Yael Bartana.
Softcover, 190 PAGES. ISBN 9783037644928. This first monograph dedicated to the work of Israeli-born artist Yael Bartana (born 1970) gives a comprehensive overview of the artist's films, installations, performative projects, photographs, and sound works of the past 15 years. From Bartana's early video vignettes to her most recent project What if Women Ruled the World? (2017), by way of her monumental trilogy And Europe Will Be Stunned (2007-11) with which she represented Poland at the 54th Venice Biennale, the book highlights the artist's fascination with the ways that social rituals shape both individual identities and collective memory. Bartana's works are themselves modeled on the aesthetics of the ritual, and are therefore performances that unapologetically seduce us. Her films draw attention to the fact that cinema is a ritual, and that the camera, perhaps better than any other device, mimics the ritualistic in its ability to fetishize, seduce and draw us into the ceremony we are watching.By (author) Emmanuel Alloa , By (author) Nora M. Alter , By (author) Erika Balsom , By (author) Yael Bartana , By (author) Juli Carson , By (author) Gil Z. Hochberg , By (author) Nicole Schweizer
