There Is in the Kitchen

Charlotte Koopman

€15.00

Charlotte Koopman has run a kitchen for the past 15 years and has always responded to both crises and festivities by cooking. ‘There Is in the Kitchen’ is a look at how to begin writing, which turns out to be not that different from preparing a meal. Both are prose bordering on poetry, both speak in a multitude of languages. 

‘There Is in the Kitchen’ is a series of essays, an inventory of what coexists in the kitchen, a larder stocked with particular interests. Ranging from the singular- Mandarino Tardivo di Ciaculli or Pistacia Terebinthus to the expansive- the cross- rhythm, close encounters, seasonality.

Poetry €8.00

13 poems of various length.

"I have used a procedure to write them and I am happy to share it, but it isn't what's most important about these poems. The subject matter that, I eventually realised, they share to the extent of justifying bundling them up in one pamphlet is religiosity, what stands between belief and act, be it faith or trust."

Still Life 4

Hamish MacPherson

STILL LIFE is an online and printed zine about relationships and configurations in which one person is still while others are not. Or where one person is passive and others are active. It’s about how we put ourselves in other people’s hands. Or how we are put in other people’s hands. It’s about care and power and vulnerability and agency. And other things not so clearly named. It’s about the different kinds of knowledge that people have about their own and other people’s bodies. And the kind of philosophical and political understandings woven into that knowledge.

F.R. David - Very Good

Paul Abbott, Will Holder

F.R.DAVID is a typographical journal, dealing with the organisation of reading and writing in contemporary art practises. The 19th issue, “very good*” is edited with Paul Abbott. Like music, the issue’s “theme” is better off unaccounted for, and up in the air, like a flock of birds (creatures who feature heavily), circling around performance, listening bodies, given time, and loving relations.

The nineteenth issue of ‘F.R.DAVID’ is edited by Will Holder and Paula Abbott, and will serve as a reader for “We can still see the horizon (and it’s curved)”, a summer residency in Scotland led by the editors. It includes a surprising array of contributions from writer Jorge Luis Borges, journalist and writer Italo Calvino, composer Hugo Cole, literary critic and theorist Barbara Herrnstein Smith, percussionist Milford Graves, philosopher Michel Serres, novelist and essayist Wilson Harris, poet Bernadette Mayer, composer and music theorist Harry Partch, pianist and poet Cecil Taylor, and several others.
