Latin American Literature in Transition 1980–2018: Volume 5
How do we address the idea of the literary now at the end of the second decade in the 21st century? Many traditional categories obscure or overlook significant contemporary forms of cultural production. This volume looks at literature and culture in general in this hinge period. Latin American Literature in Transition 1980-2018 examines the ways literary culture complicates national or area studies understandings of cultural production. Topics point to fresh, intersectional understandings of cultural practice, while keeping in mind the ongoing stakes in a struggle over material and intangible cultural and political borders that are being reinforced in formidable ways.

The complete works
"Mario Botta -- The Complete Works" is the only complete edition of Botta's creative work co-designed and authorized by the architect himself; it is now internationally recognized as the definitive work on Botta. These volumes draw a complete picture of Mario Botta's creative work as an architect, furniture designer, and exhibition and stage designer. Volume highlights include the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco, the cathedral in Evry, the mountain chuch on Monte Tamaro (Ticino), the bank at Aeschenplatz, and the recently opened Tinguely museum, both of which are located in Basel. The newest projects are also introduced, such as the municipal library in Dortmund and the synagogue in Tel Aviv.
Recollected Work
Nothing about Dutch graphic design duo Mevis & van Deursen conforms to type. Praised for their innovative but clear presentation, they have designed everything from artist's books for Gabriel Orozco and Rineke Dijkstra to an official government stamp commemorating the marriage of Dutch Crown Prince Willem-Alexander, based on the number two, since the wedding date was 02-02-02. This book represents a range of work from the past 15 years, mostly books but also posters and smaller pieces. However, the artists have chosen not simply to present the work again but to make it new through collage and reinterpretative interplay, thus "recycling" their innovative design.

Anne Rochat
Cette publication, richement illustrée, offre pour la première fois un panorama du travail réalisé par Anne Rochat (*1982) ces dix dernières années. Se déclinant essentiellement au moyen de la performance, élaborée en réponse à des lieux et des situations données, la pratique de l'artiste s'appréhende tantôt en direct dans l'ici et maintenant de la performance, tantôt en différé au moyen de la captation vidéo. Comme le formule Anne Rochat: «Mes lieux de résidence, éphémères depuis dix ans, ont toujours été l'essence et l'objet de mes travaux. Fondamentalement, ma pratique consiste à faire l'expérience sensible du déplacement, de l'inconfort, de l'exotique, du dér...
