Worms #8 'The Elements Issue'
Clem Macleod (Ed.)
Worms Magazine - 23.00€ -

In this special edition, double-cover issue of Worms, we bring you not one, but two cover stars. The  indelible Tyson Yunkaporta and the iconic Anne Waldman adorn both sides of Worms 8 which can also be thought of as ‘The Elements Issue’. It was dreamt up in a dreary and grey August in London, while the rest of the world suffered through the hottest days on record. As we witnessed, and continue to witness, such climate catastrophe, we turned to the literature we love to help us understand, to challenge us, and to offer us some comfort. 

The issue is split into four sections—earth, fire, air and water—but its roots and webs push beyond what we typically think of as ‘the natural’: tales from the kitchen from Rebecca May Johnson and Slutty Cheff, reflections on gardening and colonialism, writer's block and clogged pipes, how to blow up pipelines with Andreas Malm, grief and writing, recovery and nature with Octavia Bright, social mobility with Isabel Waidner, the wide range of issues raised by the underrepresentation of First Nations people in literature with Evelyn Araluen and much, much more. 

We hope that this issue can be a flame of hope, inspiration, or something that simply sustains in such turbulent times.

Featuring 
Tyson Yunkaporta, Isabel Waidner , Jamaica Kincaid, Melissa Broder , Evelyn Araluen, Bruce Pascoe, Octavia Bright, Nora Treatbaby , Nerea Calvillo , Anne Waldman , Alexis Pauline Gumbs , Léuli Eshrāghi, Madeline Cash , Andreas Malm, Rebecca May Johnson

Famous for my Dinner Parties - Issue 001
famous for my dinner parties (eds.)
famous for my dinner parties - 12.00€ -

After three years online, the Berlin-based food culture magazine ‘famous for my dinner parties’ is going paper! For this first edition zine, the team selected their favourite stories, essays, fun facts and photo series of the last few years, and threw some new bits and bobs into the mix, too. It’s about fake news and futurism, fast food and food faux pas, food fights, furious foodies and the best film ever made. It’s about things that look good and things that taste good, and also about things that leave a bitter taste in one’s mouth.

famous for my dinner parties is a magazine and platform celebrating, portraying, questioning and discussing different aspects of the culture around food and eating.

Spike #78 – The Night
Rita Vitorelli (ed.)
Spike Magazine - 18.00€ -

Winter issue, featuring Mark Leckey, Ellen Cantor, Gertrude Stein, Piotr Uklański, P.Staff, Josephine Pryde, Blackhaine, Diego Marcon, Ingrid Wiener, Olivier Assayas, Jamieson Webster, Steven-Phillips-Horst...

Spike's latest issue is a beacon lit to rescue The Night. Long held under suspicion as the domain of outcasts and phantoms, the night has come under pressure to extend the horizon of work and production.

What faith, the state, and capital fear are the perils and promises of the dark's formlessness: to withdraw into the pure solitude of sleep and dreams' unreason; to blush with the pure elation of dance and a rave's ephemeral friendships; even to have one's edges undone by the murmurs of ghosts or a celestial sign.

Need a break from the tyranny of the sun? Then light a candle, a headlamp, a flare – anything but your phone – and grap your copy to follow us into the possibility of the night.

De tweede Nederlandstalige GLEAN editie.

Jan Van Imschoot – Painting with a Vengeance
Jan Van Imschoot was tien jaar oud toen hij voor het eerst naar het Lam Gods van Jan van Eyck ging kijken. Tot op vandaag laat het schilderij hem niet los. ‘Het is de moeder van alle meesterwerken. Niemand heeft het ooit echt kunnen vatten, zelfs als je daar een heel leven aan zou wijden blijft het een mysterieus werk.’ Kathleen Weyts sprak met de schilder naar aanleiding van zijn grote overzichtstentoonstelling in het S.M.A.K.

Aay Liparoto – Small Acts of Violence
Wat gebeurt er als liefde gepaard gaat met fysiek of verbaal geweld? Wat als we zelf degene zijn die gewelddadig zijn? Herkennen we onszelf als dader? En hoe verhouden liefde en geweld zich tot een gevoel van veiligheid? Aay Liparoto’s filmische VR-ervaring in argos, Small Acts of Violence, verkent de verstrengeling van liefde, onvrijwillig fysiek geweld en zelfverwonding in intieme en familierelaties. Bas Blaasse ging met hun in gesprek.

Dorothy Iannone – Alles op Venus
De tentoonstelling Love Is Forever, Isn’t It? in het M HKA extraheert een overzicht uit het rijke en gelaagde oeuvre van Dorothy Iannone. Haar oeuvre heeft onmiskenbaar een narratief karakter: duizenden woorden, zinnen, alinea’s, brieven en teksten krioelen kleurrijk doorheen de zalen van het museum. Het is onmogelijk om alles te lezen, laat staan alle narratieven mee te krijgen. Maar alle aspecten van Iannone’s kunst komen aan bod en leven naast elkaar in een niet-lineair verhaal. Dagmar Dirkx bespreekt de expo.

Voorbij de leegte van de woestijn
Wolfram Vandenbergen en Frederik Thys bespreken de expo Performing Colonial Toxicity die momenteel loopt bij Framer Framed in Amsterdam. Architectuurhistorica Samia Henni construeert een alternatief archief voor de amper gekende nucleaire bladzijde uit de koloniale geschiedenis van Algerije. Een alternatief archief, want hoewel officiële documenten over het koloniale nucleaire programma in Algerije bestaan, houdt de Franse overheid ze vooralsnog achter slot en grendel.

Boeken
In onze maandelijkse boekenrubriek licht Els Roelandt twee recente boeken uit: The Uncanny van de als documentair fotograaf opgeleide Léonard Pongo, en Bring No Clothes: Bloomsbury and the Philosophy of Fashion door Charlie Porter. Door de vele zwart-witfoto’s van de Bloomsbury Group zouden we haast vergeten dat de leden ervan met regelmaat in uitbundige kleuren gekleed gingen, en bovendien zelf graag hun eigen kleren maakten en repareerden. Zo werd handwerk een filosofie en een manier van in het leven staan, een boodschap waarin Porter troost, comfort en geluk vindt.

Verder in november
Naar aanleiding van hun 25-jarig bestaan gaat Tamara Beheydt in gesprek met de coördinator van NICC, Anyuta Wiazemsky Snauwaert. Isabelle De Baets spreekt met de Nederlandse kunstenaar, toekomstdenker en schrijver Louwrien Wijers. Barbara De Coninck bezoekt kunstverzamelaar Walter Vanhaerents, de man achter de Vanhaerents Art Collection. We bespreken de performance Swallow Me Whole van Flora Van Canneyt en Ans Van Gasse. En uiteraard geven we een royale selectie ‘gleanings’, onze redactionele tips van lopende tentoonstellingen en niet te missen evenementen en happenings. Met onder andere Mashid Mohadjerin en Shervin/e Sheikh Rezaei bij Cc Strombeek, Hélène Amouzou en Nicole Eisenman in Londen, twee expo’s in Berlijn, en in Brussel de groepstentoonstelling Connecting bij KANAL, Laurent Dupont bij Gauli Zitter, Léon Wuidar bij Rodolphe Janssen en Mariana Castillo Deball bij Mendes Wood DM.

GLEAN - Issue 2 (ENG edition)
GLEAN (eds.)
GLEAN - 20.00€ -

Striking a balance between lightness and seriousness, this Winter Issue of GLEAN offers plenty of in-depth reflection as well as a glimpse of what lies around the corner.

Guest Editor: Oscar Murillo
For each issue, GLEAN invites a Guest Editor to curate a section of the magazine. We interview them and ask them to invite three writers or artists who have influenced their practice (or who otherwise deserve our attention) to take up space in our pages. Oscar Murillo (1986, La Paila, Colombia) lives and works between London, La Paila and (since recently) Brussels. On the occasion of his first solo show at WIELS in Brussels, titled ‘Masses’, which opens in February 2024, we asked him to serve as Guest Editor for our Winter Issue. Murillo asked curator and researcher Renan Laru-an and writer and producer Anna T. Pigott to contribute texts. Artist and writer Rene Matic provided a visual contribution.

Studio Visit: Che Go Eun
Finding an affordable and suitable studio space is perhaps one of the greatest challenges a young artist faces. Not only does there seem to be a shortage of adequate infrastructure in densely populated cities such as Antwerp or Brussels, but the rental prices are also very high. Level Five VZW is an artist cooperative managing several studio spaces in Brussels. Tamara Beheydt visited artist Che Go Eun in her shared studio space at Level Five’s location next to WIELS Contemporary Art Centre.

The Artist’s Library
Each issue, Els Roelandt delves into the personal library of an artist for the Artist’s Library – a column celebrating books and their writers, editors, publishers, designers and readers. For this month’s contribution, she visited Olivia Plender in Stockholm on a dark afternoon in November. The two browsed and discussed Plender’s impressive library, which contains many titles related to plants, feminism and books by and on women who are carrying on the struggle to dismantle patriarchal structures.

Hana Miletic
Having transitioned from a kind of street photography to weaving, Hana Miletic embraces the act of reproduction. Her work with textiles has evolved into an embodied and social practice. Miletic contributed the cover images for this Winter Issue, which are also being printed as a limited GLEAN artist’s edition. María Inés Rodríguez, director of the Walter Leblanc Foundation in Brussels, met up with the artist, who is gearing up for a busy season. Miletic’s work is on view in no fewer than four group shows across Europe and her first solo exhibition in the US will open next spring.

Pages 8 - When Historical
Nasrin Tabatabai, Babak Afrassiabi (eds.)
Pages Magazine - 12.00€ -

What determines our place in history? If it is the past, there we also find the material support with which we reconstitute our historical place. Our relation to history remains retrospective, but also anticipatory.

Events begin with a break from history. But they soon are recaptured by it and fetishized as historical triumphs or failures. Still something remains of past events that, although conditioned by history, is irreducible to it: a surplus that finds way to our time, something out of time that forces us to actively anticipate a renewing in past events.

Pages 9 - Seep
Nasrin Tabatabai, Babak Afrassiabi (eds.)
Pages Magazine - 12.00€ -

This issue of Pages assumes seep as a post archival mode: in the Merriam-Webster dictionary the verb 'seep' is translated as follows: to flow or pass slowly through fine pores or small openings, to enter or penetrate slowly, to become diffused or spread.

The biology or politics of seeping is like that of raw petroleum oozing at natural oil seeps. Unlike refined oil which has sponsored modernization and its aligned archives, crude oil pours beyond historical purpose and defies structural elevations. It instead disfigures the ground through which it dubiously spreads.

Seeping is a posthumous affair. It is the gradual leaking of a long withdrawn interior. Like the bleeding of a punctured corpse, when the pumping of the heart has stopped, when the body is lifeless and apathetic to any 'hail', yet continuing to bleed. Seep as archive is an eternally post-apocalyptic expansion, retraction, deviation, subtraction, or simply the arrival of (non-)things.

The Posthumanist #1 Sleep / Schlaf
The Posthumanist (eds.)
The Posthumanist - 12.00€ -

The Posthumanist is a bi-annual English and German magazine featuring art, design, technology and writing. Each issue presents one theme from various more-than-human perspectives, inviting readers to imagine what living together on planet earth is and could be. 

The idea for the publication emerged from a desire to discuss concepts and expressions of critical posthumanism and feminist new materialism in public contexts and to explore what inclusive futures could feel like. 

CENSORED 09 - It's About Time!
Apolline et Clémentine Labrosse
Censored Magazine - 20.00€ -

"Vous rappelez-vous de la dernière fois où vous vous êtes ennuyé·e ? Comment le temps maintient-il les structures du pouvoir en place ? Pourquoi la génération “working girl” ne fait-elle plus rêver ? Pourrions-nous imaginer d’autres temporalités, plus féministes et queer ? Dans son numéro “IT’S ABOUT TIME!” sous forme d’enveloppe géante, la revue Censored examine le concept du temps d’un point de vue féministe. Elle explore la manière dont le rythme de la vie est régi par des exigences sociales normées en abordant notre relation au travail, à la maternité, à la lutte et à la notion de liberté."

À travers des dialogues entre différentes époques, il explore des thèmes tels que la performance, les amitiés créatives et le repos et le divertissement. L’édition inclut des archives, dont un entretien entre Angela Davis et Toni Morrison, des lettres de plusieurs auteurices et poét-esses contemporain·es, des analyses, séries de photos ainsi que cinq cartes blanches à des artistes.

nY52 — sex negativity
Persis Bekkering, Marija Cetinic, Stefa Govaart, Tessel Veneboer (eds.)
Tijdschrift nY - 15.00€ -

Geïnspireerd door recente ontwikkelingen in queer en trans theory, het academisch discours in de traditie van de psychoanalyticus Jacques Lacan, en black studies, presenteert en lanceert nY met dit nummer het begrip ‘seksnegativiteit’, dat wijst op het destabiliserend, desoriënterend potentieel van seksualiteit, zonder er een nieuwe, gedroomde status quo tegenover te stellen.
