Events

We are taking a break from the 20th of December. We won't be shipping orders during this time, and may respond slowly to emails. We'll reopen on the 27st of January with new books, a winter stock sale, and a new program - see you then!

rile* welcomes Clara Amaral with her performance work 'She gave it to me I got it from her'. It is a book and a choreography, read out loud and handled by a performer, for a group of people.

Welcome for the launch of Cruiser L'Utopie by José Esteban Muñoz (Brook, 2021), the first French translation of Cruising Utopia (NYU Press, 2009).

Join us for A SPACESHIP MOMENT, a hybrid talk between drama and ISABEL WAIDNER on their latest novel STERLING KARAT GOLD. 

Join us for a collective reading of Monique Wittig's epic novel Les Guérillères (1969) as a part of the first edition of Lesbiennale, Lesbian* Arts Festival. Together we will read an annotated version of the entire 144 pages of the novel, translated to english in 1971 by David La Vay.

Welcome for the launch of Stage of Recovery, a new publication by Georgia Sagri (Divided, 2021).

Welcome for the launch of Atlas Europe Square, a publication by Yves Mettler (Urbanomic, 2021).

Welcome to the launch of Sisters of the Wind, a publication by Juliette Lizotte and Office of Metaphors, with an interactive audiovisual performance of the world, inspiring potions and mysterious spell books. Sisters of the Wind is the fruit of artistic research on witches, ecofeminism, and science-fiction.

Over three days in August we installed a reading salon at SAAL Biennaal in Tallinn. Housed in the cellar of Kanuti Gildi Saal visitors were invited to read, converse and hangout in the space. During the opening hours of the reading room/bookshop, we screened “Xenotopia” a newly commised film by Quanta Qualia (Siet Raeymaekers and Tomàs Dittborn). 

We are closed this summer from the 26th of July until the 26th of August. In August, we will be with some books at the SAAL Biennaal 2021 in Tallinn, Estonia. Maybe see you there! The webshop will be closed between the 10th and 19th of August, so packages won't be sent out during that period. Have a beautiful summer. x

Welcome to “Living contents”, a set of lectures, publications and performances by students and guests of the ReadingListeningSpeaking seminar at Erg Brussels.

Welcome to rile* for the live reading of If Repeatedly Then Reception, with Bryana Fritz, Quinsy Gario and Stefan Govaart. If Repeatedly Then Reception reads texts repeatedly. More than one, it summons simultaneity and seeks a third sentence. Day one draws together a selection of texts by authors who wrote with devotion unto us the readers. Day two offers devotions the readers wrote themselves.
