Fucking Good Art : the interviews
Rotterdam was het centrum van de kunstwereld, met internationale coryfeeën als Chris Dercon, Catherine David en nationale als Wilma Sütö en Arno van Roosmalen, maar opeens waren ze allemaal weg, gedeeltelijk vervangen door Sjarel Ex en Hans Maarten van den Brink. Vijftien jaar werden er interessante tentoonstellingen georganiseerd en buitenlandse tentoonstellingsmakers ingevlogen. Wat ging er verkeerd? Wil de lokale politiek geen moeilijke kunst, maar publieksevenementen? Interviews met de Rotterdamse betrokkenen.
Ven a este tribunal y llora
Hace unos años, Linda Kinstler se enteró de que un hombre que llevaba décadas muerto —un nazi que había pertenecido al mismo comando asesino que su abuelo— era objeto de una investigación judicial en Letonia. Se trataba de Herberts Cukurs, el «carnicero de Riga», un célebre aviador que, tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, huyó a Brasil hasta que el Mosad lo asesinó en 1965. Debido a la desidia de la fiscalía y al blanqueamiento de la biografía de Cukurs en nombre del orgullo patrio, existía el riesgo de que el proceso desembocara en su absolución.

Come to This Court and Cry
'A tremendous feat of storytelling, propelled by numerous twists and revelations, yet anchored by a deep moral seriousness . . . Enthralling' Guardian'Part detective story, part family history, part probing inquiry into how best to reckon with the horrors of a previous century, Come to This Court and Cry is bracingly original, beautifully written and haunting. An astonishing book' Patrick Radden Keefe, author of Empire of PainTo probe the past is to submit the memory of one's ancestors to a certain kind of trial. In this case, the trial came to me.A few years ago Linda Kinstler discovered that a man fifty years dead - a former Nazi who belonged to the same killing unit as her grandfather - w...
Front Desk/back Office
"Subversive" may be the best description for this little volume pointing out that commercial art galleries are schizophrenic; they explicitly present things with an intellectual and aesthetic value, while on the other hand the experience most definitely has a price tag attached. Rob Hamelijnck presents a selection of photographs he took - mostly without permission - of the pristine front desks and messy back rooms of galleries around the world, and reveals the hidden side of the art machine. Essays by French architect Thibaut de Ruyter and Dutch sociologist Olav Velthuis address provocative questions such as, "Why do all galleries have the same mid-century chairs?" and "Why doesn't the high-heeled young woman at the door ever say hello?" The book is the second of the limited editions produced in the Fucking Good Art series.
