NERVE RAG

Though I’m sure many have heard of  (and read from) it, this post goes to Merve Verlag,  mono.kultur’s neighbor during the MISS READ Berlin Art Book Fair.  The quintessential philosopher’s publication since 1970, it has introduced to the intellectually voracious such venerable minds as Louis Althusser and Gilles Deleuze.  In contrast to the stagnancy that usually pervades academia, [...]

TIN CAN TOILET PAPER ROLL

ENOISMS #01: OBLIQUE STRATEGIES

Even though people don’t buy books, they go for a beer without any hesitation. Broken Dimanche Press finds a good solution to that by publishing ‘beer bottles’ as the new issue of The Kakofonie European Journal of Art and Literature. The multi-linguistic journal is known for taking different forms such as parasitic wrapping, ‘the artwork that [...]

SCATTERED CROWDS

Sometimes we like to torture ourselves with drooling over worthwhile exhibitions in places where we are not, like this gem of a project at the wonderful location of Bockenheimer Depot in the city of Frankfurt, which master choreographer William Forsythe, he on our personal wish list for an interview, filled up to the roof with [...]
