Philipp Timischl - Artworks For All Age Groups


Revolver Publishing 2019 ISBN 9783957634177 Acqn 29418
Pb 23x31cm 48pp col ills £16.50

Philipp Timischl's artists' book ARTWORKS FOR ALL AGE GROUPS shows a photographic
series with a conspicuously glamorous female figure; it is the artist himself in drag. Accompanied
by a muscular young man, she is taking a private stroll through the Secession's deserted
galleries, secret corridors, and offices. Yet her appearance and bearing suggest a misconception
of what is normally considered appropriate in this setting. If Timischl relies on an exaggerated
impersonation of heteronormativity, humour, and artificiality, it is not to invest his work with the
aesthetic allure of camp. Rather, he seeks to spotlight a form of feigned self-confidence prompted
by insecurity, marginalization, and being torn between milieus and classes. The protagonist's
colour-coordinated makeup and outfit in fact suggest that she took great care to mimic the
institution's aesthetic and the figures in the Beethoven Frieze. Still, she apparently misread the
unspoken rules on how to be and act that are in effect even in a liberal space such as the world of
contemporary art.

Kris Lemsalu – Albummm


Revolver Publishing 2019 ISBN 9783957634184 Acqn 29419
Hb 13x16cm 100pp col ills £42.50

The Estonian artist Kris Lemsalu creates complex sculptures, installations, and performances that
fuse the animal kingdom with humankind, nature with the artificial, beauty with repulsion,
lightness with gravity, life with death. She revives traditional techniques and methods to combine
animal bodies and porcelain objects with found (natural) materials such as furs, leather,
seashells, wool, or paper in theatrical installations that whisk us off into a world of the fantastic
imagination. Spanning a wide range of media and modes of production, Lemsalu's multifaceted
oeuvre incorporates elements from performance art, found objects, manufactured pieces, and
music. Her multimedia creations attest to her passion for detail, hinting at a critique of society by
revealing tensions between the politics of gender, art-making, nature, and time-honoured
craftsmanship. Lemsalu is fascinated by the possibility of making objects that are not
aestheticized - their physical presence is narrative rather than representational. In her self-
portraits, she often reinvents herself as a creature blending masculine with feminine features,
surrounding herself with a new reality whose complexion and character are perpetually shifting.

Hb 24x30cm 160pp col ills £30.50

Elif Uras's first monograph, realized with Galerist and part of Kale Groups 2018 project in support
of ceramics in art, explores the artist's practice spanning paintings, ceramic objects, installations
and works on paper from multiple perspectives. ELIF URAS investigates the feminist undertones
of her works, the diverse "traditional" techniques utilized in the ceramic objects, and how her
unique patterning, ornamentation and narrative storytelling connect these works with her
paintings.

Lara protects me
Revolver Publishing 2019 ISBN 9783957634368 Acqn 29421
Hb 24x18cm 208pp col ills £19

Tbilisi is the new Berlin, they say. Long party nights and room for personal development attract
more and more people to the capital of Georgia. As a centuries-old hub of central trade routes,
Tbilisi brought the peoples together, involuntarily, through occupations and conquests, or frankly,
as a refuge for those displaced elsewhere. LARA PROTECTS ME tells the story of a mysterious
message. The note of the unknown Lara becomes the starting point of a search. Who is Lara?
Artists, designers, curators and authors give possible answers and invite you to explore the
country and its history. The result is a multifaceted picture of a new Georgian self-image and a
young art scene that moves between fashion, music and art.

Maik Schluter - In Your Face


Revolver Publishing 2019 ISBN 9783957634252 Acqn 29424
Hb 21x31cm 96pp col ills £13

Facts, taken for granted, and the belief in images by the media society are called into question. In
the same way that the audience members are spoken to on a physical level, physicality is a
central theme to most of these projects. They speak to the desire to recognition and the
perfection of the self, both of which entail existential risks or lead to physical interventions or even
surgery; to examinations of sexual identity and self-presentation, the alienation and
technologization of the body. The subjective perspectives of IYF depict the breaking points of
these social developments and conflicts. In the space between the instantaneous snapshot and
the manifesto, a unique imagistic narrative about social norms and subjective renditions of
everyday reality emerges.

Kyra Tabea Balderer - Nach der Palme der Vogel


Revolver Publishing 2019 ISBN 9783957634283 Acqn 29425
Pb 24x31cm 128pp col ills £23.50

Kyra Tabea Balderer's photographs appeal to all our senses. Their colours are tantalisingly
beautiful and they are so painterly and haptic, we almost feel like touching them. It is hard to
believe that what we see are prints! The artist achieves this by genuinely photographic means:
she uses light and shade deliberately and choses focus and depth of field with great precision
when photographing her self-made constructions with her large format camera. In this way, Kyra
Tabea Balderer cleverly combines sculpture, painting and photography.

their lives during the ongoing financial crisis.

Revolver Publishing 2019 ISBN 9783957634450 Acqn 29429
Pb 25x20cm 224pp col ills £21

Every year, an interdisciplinary workshop takes place in Cuba at the Universidad de las Artes ISA
in Havana. Based on the assumption that through an intensive sensory-aesthetic examination of
the perceptive organism with exercises for the individual senses the self and world experience is
expanded and thus the artistic work as well as the empathy ability is inspired and promoted,
senseLAB supports this through a common experimentation in analogous fields of experience
Reflecting on your own doing and designing. An extensive photo section documents this work
and also conveys the extraordinary atmosphere of Havana.

Marko Lipus - Kratzungen Blau


Revolver Publishing 2019 ISBN 9783957634306 Acqn 29430
Pb 20x24cm 68pp col ills £16.50

With his photo book SCRATCH BLUE Marko Lipus presents the complete 18-part series of his
photographic works made at the Leipzig Cotton Mill. The abstract-landscape original photographs
were edited using a special method of scratching developed by the author and intervene
interventionistically in the image surface, whereby deeper layers of the image come to light.
Through this form of experimental photography he transforms the medium, which has long been
negotiated in absolute categories.
