Robert Filliou and George Brecht's Mönchengladbach kassettenpublikation catalogue / multiple.From the edition limited to 440 numbered copies.The exhibition 'La Cedille Qui Sourit' was held at the Städtisches Museum Mönchengladbach from June 18th to July 27th 1969. The three parts of the joint exhibition were: 'I. Vorspiel zum Cédille / Prelude to the Cedilla / Prélude à la Cédille. II. Le Cédille Qui Sourit 12 rue du May Villefranche-sur-Mer A. M. September 1965 - Oktober 1968. III. Das ständige Geschehen / The Eternal Network / La Fête Permanente. Was das Cédille sein wird ist / What the Cedilla will be is / Çe que deviendra la Cédille est devenue.''La Cédille Qui Sourit' was Brecht and Filliou's artist run shop or rather 'non-shop' - the raison-d'etre was to eschew typical commercial activities - in Villefranche-sur-Mer. Stocked with artist books and multiples from Filliou and Brecht's Fluxus associates together with examples of their own work and other ephemera from their working process: letters jokes puzzles recipes poems and sketches. The venture lasted as indicated above from 1965 to 1968 before its metamorphosis into 'The Eternal Network'.Whilst the format of boxes as exhibition catalogues follows the Mönchengladbach format the use of a matchbox design was unique and appears to have been the brainchild of Museum Director Johnanes Cladders.Rennert / Titz 7.

Brecht's mistrust of the press imagery emerging from the Second World War led him to compose four-line poems which he juxtaposed with photographs sourced from newspapers and magazines many of which were from LIFE magazine as Brecht was living in the United States in exile from Nazi Germany. Broomberg & Chanarin concerned with the proliferation of imagery relating to the 'War on Terror' that began with 9/11 have taken copies of the 1998 first English edition of Brecht's War Primer as the starting point for this revised version. Keeping the original captions intact they have partially overlaid the original photographs selected by Brecht with contemporary imagery from both sides of the recent conflict drawn from online sources. The URL for each image is provided with a caption in a new set of notes screenprinted over the originals. Broomberg & Chanarin were awarded the 2013 Deutsche Börse Photography Prize for this work.
