Die Sanftmütigen
Sommer 1991. Berlin. Fast wie in einem Rausch beginnen Lucille und Alexis ihre Liebe. Ihre Leben treffen sich am Abgrund des jeweils anderen und entwickeln in ihrer Intensität schnell ein unheilvolles Füreinander. Beide haben ihre eigene Zeit, ihre eigene Perspektive, und so wagt dieser Roman den Aufbruch in eine neue Erzählstruktur, bei der sich Vergangenheit und Zukunft aufeinander zubewegen. Wie weit sich Lucille und Alexis im Laufe der 47 Jahre auch voneinander entfernt haben, was Veränderungen mit ihnen gemacht haben, sie haben sich nie verloren. Außergewöhnlich, stilistisch überzeugend und bis zuletzt aufwühlend zeigt der Roman ein beeindruckendes Panorama des Erwachsenwerdens.
Writings on Wade Guyton
Few figures have had an impact as important on our understanding of artistic production after the turn of the millennium as Wade Guyton, whose practice has widely prompted reconsiderations of longstanding models of medium-specificity, appropriation, and critical engagement--and, perhaps more provocatively, performativity and readymade gesture--in art.This volume takes stock of critical perspectives on Guyton's work over the course of the artist's career, assembling both expansive, scholarly essays and more concise, journalistic assessments by an international array of authors including Daniel Baumann, Kirsty Bell, Bettina Funcke, Tim Griffin (editor), and John Kelsey.Just as significantly, this book holds up a mirror to the rapidly changing context for Guyton's work, which in a few short years shifted from discussions of the widespread use of modernist motifs in art during the early 2000s to others revolving around the artwork, anticipating its continuous circulation as digital media became ubiquitous in art and culture alike.Published with the Kunsthalle Z�rich. This book is part of the JRP Ringier Documents series.

A Country for Dying
An exquisite novel of North Africans in Paris by "one of the most original and necessary voices in world literature" WINNER OF THE 2021 PEN TRANSLATION PRIZE Paris, Summer 2010. Zahira is 40 years old, Moroccan, a prostitute, traumatized by her father's suicide decades prior, and in love with a man who no longer loves her. Zannouba, Zahira's friend and protege, formerly known as Aziz, prepares for gender confirmation surgery and reflects on the reoccuring trauma of loss, including the loss of her pre-transition male persona. Mojtaba is a gay Iranian revolutionary who, having fled to Paris, seeks refuge with Zahira for the month of Ramadan. Meanwhile, Allal, Zahira's first love back in Morocco, travels to Paris to find Zahira. Through swirling, perpendicular narratives, A Country for Dying follows the inner lives of emigrants as they contend with the space between their dreams and their realities, a schism of a postcolonial world where, as Taïa writes, "So many people find themselves in the same situation. It is our destiny: To pay with our bodies for other people's future."
