MACK Politics and Passions
Book SynopsisIn 2009, the artist Anna Ostoya created a booklet with textual collages using an essay by the political theorist Chantal Mouffe, 'Politics and Passions: The Stakes of Democracy' (2002). In the essay, Mouffe critiqued the then-dominant 'beyond left and right' politics of neoliberalism and warned of its dangers - the rise of right-wing populist parties. Fascinated by Mouffe's strikingly prophetic ideas, as well as her bold call to fight the status quo in order to radicalise democracy and to prevent violence, Ostoya returned to the booklet in 2019. She composed for it a series of portraits based on sketches of people on the New York City subway and on reproductions of her paintings and collages from the preceding decade. She also conducted a conversation with Mouffe about the politics of the last forty years, about the contemporary moment and about art, which is included in this publication.

MACK Evidence
Book SynopsisThis limited edition artist’s book brings together digital collages and manipulated photographs by painter James White based on the celebrated and hugely influential series 'Evidence' by Mike Mandel and Larry Sultan. In 'Evidence', Sultan and Mandel drew on the archives of more than a hundred US government agencies, finding surreal narrative suggestions in deadpan images that were intended as functional documents, upending and interrogating the documentary natures they espoused. The book has been a continual reference for the grayscale photographic paintings for which James White has become known. In this volume, White pays tribute to Sultan and Mandel’s project by further undermining the evidentiary nature of the photographic medium through a process of intervention and painterly gesture which disrupts and reconstitutes the images’ mercurial surfaces. Published as a limited edition of 1000 signed copies.

Prestel Street Art's Rising Stars: 24 Artists You Should
Book SynopsisMaking their statements on the walls of the world's major cities, these emerging artists are also making their way to the forefront of an increasingly crowded genre. As street artists move from the fringe to the mainstream, it's hard to know who is a true talent and who's just a flash in the pan. Filled with stunning photography and portraits of each artist, this book identifies twenty rising stars whose imaginative and technically brilliant works are bringing them to the forefront of the genre. Each artist is profiled in multiple-page spreads that include background texts, portraits, and a sampling of their work. Included here are London-based artist Ben Slow, whose black ink and deeply expressive faces grace a number of buildings in the UK capital; Parisian artist Ardif, whose hybrid creatures merge machines with nature; Inti, who uses large, vividly colored murals to critique modern Chilean society; and American Vince Ballentine, whose technique combines elements of rap and hip hop. Whether rebelling against the establishment or bringing communities together; highlighting important issues or expressing a unique creative vision; these artists are living proof of street art's lasting influence, infinite adaptability, and remarkable diversity.

Transcript Verlag Emerging Bodies: The Performance of Worldmaking
Book SynopsisThe concept of "worldmaking" is based on the idea that "the world" is not given, but rather produced through language, actions, ideas and perception. This collection of essays takes a closer look at various hybrid and disparate worlds related to dance and choreography. Coming from a broad range of different backgrounds and disciplines, the authors inquire into the ways of producing "dance worlds": through artistic practice, discourse and media, choreographic form and dance material.The essays in this volume critically reflect the predominant topos of dance as something fleeting and ephemeral - an embodiment of the Other in modernity. Moreover, they demonstrate that there is more than just one universal "world of dance", but rather a multitude of interrelated dance worlds with more emerging every day.

Edition Reuss Day of the Dead Tattoo Artwork Collection:
Book SynopsisAll of the artwork in this collection -- Skulls, Catrinas and Culture of the Dead share a common theme: a lust for life and reverence of death -- all explored in engaging paintings, drawings, photography and sculpture. This book represents a veritable compendium of skulls and Catrinas with impressive artistic scope, and a valuable source of inspiration for contemporary tattoo artwork. Skulls and Catrinas are the most significant attributes of Mexico''s traditional celebration of The Day of the Dead, El Dia de los Muertos. Such pleasures are brilliantly displayed in the artwork featured, in full vibrant colour, on the pages of this book. In this massive hardcover, Edgar Hoill has assembled renowned tattooists from around the world, who uniquely interpret the icons of this sacred day. The Calaveras, literally, skulls are artfully manifested in various forms among the artwork. Images of Catrina, the covert queen of the dead, within this book demonstrate how the artists view death as something to be laughed at and not feared. Also populating these pages are beautiful women with skeletal features transposed over their faces, bringing to mind the joy and suffering of love.
