Mise en Abyme – Photographic Derivatives, Catherine Maddrell

A crab‘s claw against a blue background. On 32 photographs the same claw, the same background, the same perspective, the same light. Nevertheless each picture is a little bit darker than the previous one, the claw seems to move to the lower edge of the picture until it disappears into the black. “Mise en Abyme – Photographic Derivatives“ is the title as well as the program of Catherine Maddrell’s series.

ed. by Suzana Milevska, various writers
book, hardcover, 420 pp, ill., colour
Ljubljana, Slovenia: P.A.R.A.S.I.T.E. Institute. 2010

The project The Renaming Machine looks at the complex entanglements involved in the political and cultural processes of renaming. Its main concept reflects the crucial need to question the way these processes have influenced the construction and destabilization of the memory of national, cultural andpersonal identities in the former Yugoslavia and South-Eastern Europe over the past two decades. Alongside the philosophical and theoretical implications of the “mystic writing pad” of historic renaming, the project examines clandestine ideological patterns of the “desiring renaming machine” at work behind the dominant and visible social machines. Particularly with the break-up of Yugoslavia, the renaming “apparatus” erased and overwrote most traces from the Tito era, including the Yugoslav leader’s own name, which had been attached to many places in the former country.
Participating writers and artists in the book are (among others):
Sanja Iveković, Tanja Ostojić/DavidRych, Tadej Pogačar, Dan Perjovschi, Lia Perjovschi, Irwin, Alexander Vaindorf, Sasha Huber, Kalle Hamm, Mladen Stilinović, Hristina Ivanoska, Zdenko Bužek, Barbara Borčić, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak , James E.

GAGARIN 22/2010

Gagarin – the artists in their own words – is entirely dedicated to the publication of original texts of artists, who are now working, anywhere in the world. Gagarin wants to publish their words in an unfiltered way, in the form of autobiographical texts or interviews. Gagarin does not restrict itself to a particular period or import and runs through the codes that are applied in the world of art. Gagarin is aimed at those who do not tend to wait until everything is accepted and synthesized and those who ar prepared to leave the road to search for stimulating art and ideas while they are still fresh.

Contributors issue 22/2010:
Joseph Kosuth, Paolo Chiasera, Matej Krén, Tintin Wulia, Alicja Kwade, Roman Signer, Eulalia Valldosera
