Feministisk selvforsvar rummer viden om sexisme, vold og overgreb, øvelser i selvforsvar og beretninger fra mennesker, der har oplevet at blive krænket. Samlet skaber Feministisk selvforsvar et overskueligt overblik over et komplekst problem, der aldrig er en privat sag – af samme grund kommer forandringerne derfor først, når vi alle får indsigt og nye redskaber. Feministisk selvforsvar er en håndbog med konkrete bud på, hvordan nye tanker og handlinger kan skabe en tryggere verden. Ambitionen er, at flere formår at sætte grænser og råbe nej – i fællesskab.
Photographs of contemporary Veles are intertwined with fragments from an archaeological discovery also called 'the Book of Veles' -- a cryptic collection of 40 'ancient' wooden boards discovered in Russia in 1919, written in a proto-Slavic language. It was claimed to be a history of the Slavic people and the god Veles himself--the pre-Christian Slavic god of mischief, chaos and deception
Two by Two is a fast-paced swirl through the dancing scene in L.A., where Leonardo DiCaprio has been known to swing at The Derby and Sandra Bullock salsas at El Floridita. Eve Babitz, a writer known for her hip, off-the-cuff, idiosyncratic style, spends two years of her life, ruins nine pairs of shoes, and goes through countless dance partners learning to appreciate and master all the hot dances from foxtrot and two-step to lindy, tango, salsa, and swing. Along the way she meets obsessed dancers and listens night after night as they pour out the secrets of their style—who the best teachers are, where to find the perfect dancing shoes, and how to fall in love with your partner. Eve brings the flirtatious energy of dancing alive like no other writer. Two by Two is not a book that teaches you how to dance, but it will surely make you want to learn once you've read it.

In 2010, more Americans lived below the poverty line than at any time since 1959, when the U.S. Census Bureau began collecting this data. In 2011, Kira Pollack, Director of Photography at 'TIME', commissioned photographer Joakim Eskildsen to capture the growing crisis, affecting nearly 46.2 million Americans. Based on census data, the places with the highest poverty rates were chosen when Eskildsen, together with journalist Natasha del Toro, traveled to New York, California, Louisiana, South Dakota, and Georgia over seven months to document the lives of the people behind the statistics. The people Joakim Eskildsen has portrayed are people who struggle to make ends meet, who have lost their jobs or homes, and often live in unhealthy conditions. They usually remain invisible in the American society to which the myth of the American Dream is still very strong. Many of the people held there was no such dream anymore, merely the American Reality.
Brutally and forcefully, Becoming Animal connects the animalization of art history to the use of negatively charged animal metaphors in contemporary, everyday rhetoric. Unlike animals, humans are painfully conscious of their own existence and mortality. Becoming Animal explores this fact through works by Francisco de Goya, Albert Oehlen, Gardar Eide Einarsson, Matias Faldbakken and others.
