Maxime Le Bon

In banana boxes, Maxime Le Bon collects and stores a lot of documents in a jumble. Most of them are printed, cut out from newspapers, magazines, old publications, erratas and other fragments of texts. Added to this are drawings that he improvises - some of them torn or stained that he don't want to display or throw away. This collection of heterogeneous items is then being rearranged and slipped into plastic pockets where he stores them. Unstable and in constant change, this improbable archive grows with the years. It sedimented layers of experiences and constitutes this heterogeneous deposit from which can emerge all sorts of fragmentary narratives and accidental arrangements. The publication ZILCH brings together a selection of images from this extensive archive.

Touch Response

Lore Smolders

Touch Response is about lacking language and how to (not) interpret images. This is a book on vulnerability, as a description, prescription or side effect. It is made in a difficult period of fatigue and pain, mainly in the sofa in my living room, as a dialogue with myself and other invisible forces.

Drawings by Lore Smolders - visual artist
Interview with Birds WG - healer, writer, performance artist
Text editing by Isolde Vanhee and Joan Somers Donnelly

Shirana Shahbazi

Published on the occasion of her exhibition at the Palais de l'Athénée, Geneva (September 18–October 18, 2025) following her Prix de la Société des Arts de Genève award in 2025, this new artist's book by Shirana Shahbazi is fully dedicated to her "Displacement" series (2023–2025). To describe it, she states: "I use multiple exposure and overlapping to create an independent experience of time and space. The simultaneity of different realities is relevant to many of us. I think a lot about how to depict these complex realities."

Designed by Norm, Zurich, this publication is itself an inquiry into space and time, and our relationship to them. Each alternate page is trimmed short, creating new perceptions. The artist adds: "I enjoy deconstructing rooms, creating new ways of experiencing them. Sharpening the awareness while you see the works." The latest book in a series of acclaimed photography publications, this volume is characteristic of Shahbazi's distinctive and conceptually rigorous approach to photography in which light, vibrant color field, and layering play key roles. Flipping through the pages of An Exciting Opportunity Lies Ahead of You is a dream-like journey through architecture and senses. 

Born in Tehran in 1974, Shirana Shahbazi moved to Germany at the age of 11. She studied photography in Dortmund and Zurich, where she lives and works today. Her practice has been dedicated to generating a hybrid visual language that defies simple categorization and can be experienced on multiple levels. It challenges the translation and the transcultural construction of meaning. The physical presence of her work is just as important as its semantic underpinnings.

Treatise of a Coat

Helen Marten

Featuring coloured pencil, watercolour, ink, airbrush, acrylic and graphite, alongside other more unusual media like sand, silicone or olive oil, this book is a sumptuous, visual document of Marten's drawing and painting practice on paper. Designed as an unruly "artist's book", Treatise of a Coat has multiple physical and linguistic folds. The title is a forcing of the homonymic similarities of coat: the literal jacket that is unfurled to expose the naked and unruly shame of human forms; the fur or hair of an animal; the verb-function of to coat, with its intentional building up of visual desire - the acts of lacquering, spreading, enclosing, flooding, directing, or husking that line and colour expedite when creating an image. The constituent materiality of this book is designed with the physicality of making a work on paper in mind.
