The Constituent Museum

  • Categories: Art

This book offers a diverse, rigorous, and experimental analysis of what is commonly known as education, mediation, or interpretation within museum institutions. It takes the visitor not as a passive receiver of predefined content, but as a member of a constituent body, one who facilitates, provokes, and inspires. The publication situates these practices within the socio-political context and the physical and organisational structure, and attempts to understand this change in an integral, interdisciplinary manner. It addresses such issues as ownership and power dynamics, collective pedagogy, co-curation, crowdsourcing, digital cultivation, activating archives, and more.

Journey to the Lower World

Cultural Writing. Poetry. Art. Photography. Film. Marcus Coates is setting off on a journey to the Lower World where he will perform a Siberian Yakut shamanic ritual for the residents of Sheil Park, Liverpool. This book tells the story. Edited by Alec Finlay as a "bookscape," JOURNEY features a DVD of Coates' performance, photographs by Nick David and writings by Mark Wallinger and JJ Charlesworth. About Coates' piece, Wallinger writes: "The work treads a fine line between pathos and bathos. It is touching because it has enacted the fears and vulnerability of audience, which are real enough if ultimately unknowable, and finds its own strange way to an image of hope for them to take away."

Cultural Writing. Art. Visual puns and scrappy textual tricks abound in this vivacious collection by Glasgow based artist and writer Daivd Bellingham. "IDEAS LEAVE OBJECTS STANDING" claims Bellingham, and after perusing through this book which presents a selection of his art pieces, who could argue with him? Using objects and words in various combinations, Bellingham takes a playful approach to convey his ideas ('made rather than found'), which do exactly as the title suggests. The collection includes graphic and typographic work, texts, poems and photographic pieces.

"International Booker-longlisted author Clemens Meyer returns with Dark Satellites, a striking collection of stories about marginal characters in contemporary Germany. A train driver's life is upended when he hits a laughing man on the tracks on his night shift; a lonely train cleaner makes friends with a hairdresser in the train station bar; and a young man, unable to return to his home after a break-in, wanders the city in a state of increasing unrest. From the home to places of work, Meyer transforms the territories of our everyday lives into sites of rupture and connection. Unsentimental and yet deeply moving, Dark Satellites is a collection of stories from our time, as dark as the world, as beautiful as the brightest of hopes." --Amazon.com

Heart of Glass

In this edgy and romantic follow-up to her New York Times bestselling debut memoir, Chanel Bonfire, Wendy Lawless chronicles her misguided twenties—a darkly funny story of a girl without a roadmap for life who flees her disastrous past to find herself in the gritty heart of 1980s New York City. Before downtown Manhattan was scrubbed clean, gentrified and overrun with designer boutiques and trendy eateries and bars, it was the center of a burgeoning art scene—both exciting and dangerous. Running from the shipwreck of her glamorous and unstable childhood with a volatile mother, Wendy Lawless landed in the center of it all. With an open heart and a thrift store wardrobe, Wendy navigated thi...
