We have just returned from Venice after a productive week at La Biennale Arte, brimming with fresh ideas and excitement.
Highlights from our program included the insightful panel "Publishing as an Artistic Tool," featuring renowned artists such as Luis Lázaro Matos, Simon Starling, Luca Trevisani, the publisher Winfred Heininger of Kodoji Press, and the moderator Alice Rigo Saitta. The dialogue provided an engaging exploration of the intersections between publishing and artistic expression.
Afterwards we held the talk titled "I Want to Make Another Book Right Away" with publisher and artist Jason Dodge and Céline Fribourg, founder of Édition Take 5, and the moderator Lorenzo Benedetti. This session captivated attendees with its deep dive into the creative and logistical aspects of contemporary bookmaking.

We were also thrilled to host the book launch for "Nil Yalter: Circular Tension," authored by Prof. Dr. Omar Kholeif and published by mousse. This publication examines the extraordinary life and work of Nil Yalter. The event was particularly special as it coincided with the celebration of Yalter receiving the prestigious Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.
