Il libro, rappresenta una sorta di "Testamento spirituale" dellautrice, in cui, la salute viene vista come "Arte del vivere quotidiano", apportando le giuste modifiche al proprio stile di vita, in senso costruttivo. In questi, termini, lessere umano e unanima in cammino verso la propria realizzazione ed evoluzione.Attraverso la riflessione su vari temi umanistici ed esistenziali, lautrice ci accompagna in un viaggio metafisico e filosofico, in cui ogni essere umano, puo rispecchiarsi e comprendere come migliorare il proprio atteggiamento nei confronti della viva vita, fino a diventare, la "migliore versione di se stesso".Fare arte implica essere creativi, sviluppare e mettere in atto i meccanismi della creativita. Ma allora, cosa centra larte con il concetto di salute? Esiste un legame profondo, in quanto, lessenza della bellezza, il saperla cogliere non solo nellosservare un dipinto, ma anche nellosservare e sperimentare la vita nella sua totalita, ci permette di stare bene, di sentirci intimamente e profondamente connessi con quella parte autentica di noi, che e il Se. Si tratta di considerare la propria salute come espressione della spiritualita e della bellezza presente in ognuno di noi, in quanto siamo esseri bellissimi, unici ed autentici.E spesso ce lo dimentichiamo"Per stare bene, sia nel corpo che nello spirito, abbiamo bisogno di aprire nuovamente gli occhi alla bellezza, presente fuori e dentro di noi".

Artist Ida Applebroog uses a wide variety of media to express themes of struggles within gender and political roles, as well as sexual-identity issues. The publication Scripts is a facsimile of excerpts from one of her personal notebooks containing a compilation of handwritten notes, storyboards, mise-en-scene drawings, and musical notations. Underlining, as well as annotations in different colors, shows that the artist has intensively worked through her notes several times. Some of the fragments on these pages read: "Silences are the undercurrent of all dramatic events.""Each performance should be more of silence than words.""Any silence must be punctuated by sound eventually." For Applebroog, the staged scenes function as "a mode of narration," and "the narratives are not meant to be truths; the characters simply are." With only a few words and brief instructions, Applebroog develops stage plays of great dramatic density that she simultaneously comments on, questions, and interprets, thus delivering an insight into her working method. Ida Applebroog (*1929) is an artist living in New York. Language: English

Notebook 089 is a result of the immense changes that have taken place in the world since 1989. With the end of the Cold War, the utopian neoliberal fantasy of a global capitalist expansion, unfettered by the limits of any borders (psychic, physical, ethical, national, or ecological) and governed through an extension of credit/debt coupled with correlated "structural adjustments," assumed a new function for nation-states around the world, as a privatizer of gains, and a socializer of costs. In a span of twenty years the insolvency of this paradigm has become evident; not only has an entire world been gripped by conflict, depression, extreme inequalities, and irreversible ecological damage, but, in addition, the economic basis underwriting all of this is unable to continue without the very state intervention that had supposedly been rendered unnecessary. These notes do not recount this story, but rather take place in its wake, while also marking out the process of thinking through this critical epoch, in the midst of collective meetings and discussions leading up to and through what would be called Occupy. Rather than fixing these movements, this notebook collects a series of positions, ideas, and conversations, which trace individual articulations and provide multiple cartographies of events in which people said "no" to regimes of concentrated wealth/power from Cochabamba to Tunis, from Cairo to Fukushima, from Madrid to Athens, from New York to Carbondale, and beyond. Here, one will find a continuation of those struggles for autonomy and the affirmation of different forms of life in note form.Ayreen Anastas and Rene Gabri are artists and Agents for dOCUMENTA (13).

In the form of a lexicon, artist Mariam Ghani describes, together with her father, the renowned anthropologist and political scientist Ashraf Ghani, the cycle of repeated collapse and recovery that Afghanistan has undergone over the course of the twentieth century. The lexicon comprises seventy-one mostly illustrated terms that include central figures and places, words that carry a specific (political) meaning in the Afghan context, and entries on recurring events and defining themes. The notebooks point of departure is a detailed reflection on the reign of King Amanullah Khan (191929), whose successes and failures yielded a model for reformers who succeeded him. These thoughts are followed by a series of terms related to, among other things, Dar ul-Aman Palace, now a ruin, which was part of Amanullahs design for a "new city," and which characterizedas a space of exception, a center of conflict, a prototype for future plans, and a symbol of past failurestwentieth-century Afghan planning policy.Mariam Ghani (*1978) is an artist based in New York and Kabul. Ashraf Ghani (*1949), author of Fixing Failed States (in English) and A Window to a Just Order (in Dari and Pashtu), lives in Kabul.Language: English

For this series, artist Lawrence Weiner (*1942) has made an artists book in exactly the same format (A6) and with the same number of pages (24) as his first contribution to documenta 5 in 1972, curated by Harald Szeemann. The partly handwritten instructions, statements, definitions, poems, and pictograms give an insight into his artistic practice andas eloquently as poeticallytransfer his ideas around dOCUMENTA (13) into language. A central figure in Conceptual art from its beginnings, Weiner works in a wide variety of media including video, books, performance, and installation.Language: EnglishLawrence Weiner (*1942 in the Bronx, New York) studied literature and philosophy at Hunter College in New York. After an intensive study of the traditional arts of painting and sculpture, he developed his own approach to art, using language, in the late 1960s. His work has been seen in countless solo shows and large, important international exhibitions. Recently, the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; K21, Dusseldorf; and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, produced a retrospective of his work titled AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE (2007/08). Weiners work has been shown at the documenta 5 (1972), 6 (1977), and 7 (1982), and will also be seen in 2012 at the dOCUMENTA (13) in Kassel. The artist lives in New York and Amsterdam.

Louise Bourgeois (19112010) was born on December 25, 1911. This book, which is devoted to the central themes of the late artists oeuvre, is being published on the occasion of her one-hundredth birthday. It examines her life, her exploration of the works of other artists, and the transformation of her emotions into works of art. Over the course of nine chapters, characteristic works are presented in the context of art history by comparing and contrasting them with works from the Beyeler Collection. The book brings home the fact that Bourgeois not only offset the important antagonism between the figurative and the abstract in modernism, she also helped to provide a unique interpretive level to modern art beyond that of the purely visible. This publication is an introduction to the life and work of a woman who was one of the most important artists of her time. ( German edition ISBN 978-3-7757-3311-3) Exhibition schedule: Fondation Beyeler, Basel/Riehen, September 3, 2011 January 8, 2012 Language: English LOUISE BOURGEOIS (19112010) is one of the most influential artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, best known for her formally inventive and psychologically powerful sculptures.

This notebook combines photographs by Palestinian artist Emily Jacir with a text by political philosopher Susan Buck-Morss, who teaches at the City University of New York, written in response to the images and to conversations with the artist. Jacirs photographs depict the former Benedictine monastery of Breitenau, near Kassel. A prison camp in the Nazi era, it became a girls reformatory after World War II. These images as well as other photographs taken in Kassel are accompanied by selections from the artists diary entries, which investigate questions around the histories of the represented sites. Recalling Walter Benjamins reading of Paul Klees Angelus Novus, Buck-Morss textual response unravels how truth and collective memory are established and how the inextricable relation between knowledge and power leads to the selection of what is archived and remembered.Language: English

This extraordinary book reveals the secrets of automata mechanisms, which were developed over generations by makers who closely guarded their designs in the competitive business of automata making. Written by a specialist restorer, it gives a unique appreciation of the internal mechanisms that allow an automaton to move as if alive. Organised into popular subjects that are explored in entertaining detail, this book is a rich resource for makers, artists, restorers and collectors alike, as well as those who simply find themselves asking the question How does it do that?Secrets of Automata is the culmination of its authors career-long fascination with automata mechanisms. Michael Start specialises in restoring clockwork figures and singing birds produced in Paris during the 19th century. It is no accident that this time and place became known as the golden age of automata; the craftsmen of Paris competed with each other to capture a share of a growing global market for mechanical wonders.The various methods of portraying mechanical life using complex mechanisms and clever design were rarely recorded or publicised - but they are there, sealed within the automata themselves. As a restorer, Michael is unique in being able to provide a written expose of the historical techniques of the lifelike movement. In Secrets of Automata, it is his great pleasure to share them with you.

What is there to hope for today? How does hope manifest itself at a time when a linear understanding of the future, of growing prosperity, security, and progress is canceled? How can hope be thought beyond market-driven forms of worldbuilding? Is there a third approach in which hope as a critical practice opens a path to alternative futures? After Techno Globalization Pandemic and Kingdom of the Ill, HOPE is the third chapter of the long-term project TECHNO HUMANITIES, exploring the urgent questions of what it means to be a global citizen in the present-day dependency between ecology, technology, and economy. HOPE brings together a wide range of artistic positions from different generations that see the end of future as the start of new beginnings and an incentive to validate more circular and re-generative practices as a source of wonder and collective movement.
