<p>Having survival kits used in Apollo and Mercury space missions as inspiration, the artist book Noah s Ark An Improbable Space Survival Kit advances a set of conceptual and artistic tools to be used in a crisis situation our present times and to imagine the future. </p><p>The accelerated rhythm of global climate change, vanishing bio resources and the effects of the Anthropocene pose the urgency of survival in stronger and stronger terms. What are the possible scenarios to be followed? Nowadays, leaving the Earth and colonising outer space is gradually becoming a potential alternative reality. The unknown cosmos is gradually turned into a world to be seen, grasped, explored and inhabited. </p><p>The Artemis Moon Mission is scheduled for 2024. Worlds, potentially hosting life or capable of sustaining it, are being envisioned and searched for; exoplanets are discovered; self-sustainable space habitats are imagined. Contemporary Noah s Arks are designed, human life prolongation is sought for, and Military Space Commands are created. Ethical questions abound regarding the attempt to colonise and inhabit space, as well as regarding human responsibility toward outer space, which starts to be marked by an Anthropocene stage. The actively sought for planetary migration toward space simultaneously contains the promise of the future as well as the germs of contamination and destruction of the worlds it encounters. </p><p>Is outer space a viable scenario for life prolongation and survival? If so, does it breed life as we know it, or do we witness an ontological shift in what life means? </p><p>This project is supported by Konstnärsnämnden, The Swedish Art Grants Committee. </p><p>Artistic Concept: Corina Ilea and Stefan Constantinescu </p><p>Design: Radu Manelici </p><p>Illustration: Mihai Coliban</p><p>Text contributions by: Corin Braga, C t lina Curceanu, M RX Dentith, Simon Harel, Laura T.

Tham & Videgård - On- Architecture Bok
<p>The title - <i>On: Architecture</i> - comes out of Tham & Videgård s desire to think and talk about the fundamentals of architecture. The book shares this conversation with the reader and shows, through seventy-three project examples, how their ideas have been tested in practice. "<i>Architecture concerns us all. It is the most comprehensive and complex art form in society. In our work, it emerges from an ongoing discussion about architecture and a desire to explore what architecture can be</i>" says Bolle Tham & Martin Videgård. Tham & Videgård, founded by Bolle Tham and Martin Videgård in 1999, are internationally recognized, award-winning architects of unique buildings at a wide variety of scales. The new book, the most comprehensive publication to date, includes a broad selection of built, unbuilt and ongoing projects from the studio s over twenty years in practice.

Texts by Kieran Long, director, ArkDes, Daniel Golling, curator, ArkDes and photography by Åke E:son Lindman. </p><p>Bokens titel - <i>On: Architecture</i> - utgår ifrån Tham & Videgårds önskan att föra ett samtal om arkitekturens fundamentala aspekter. Boken delar detta samtal med läsaren och visar, hur deras idéer har omsatts i sjuttiotre projektexempel. "<i>Arkitektur angår oss alla. Det är samhällets mest heltäckande och komplexa konstform. I vårt arbete uppstår den ur ett kontinuerligt samtal om arkitektur och en vilja att utforska vad arkitektur kan vara</i>" säger Bolle Tham & Martin Videgård. Tham & Videgård som grundades av Bolle Tham och Martin Videgård 1999, har blivit prisade och är internationellt erkända som arkitekter av unika byggnader i varierande skalor.

Matts Leiderstam - Seen Through The Grid Bok
<p>Matts Leiderstams konstnärliga och forskningsbaserade praktik står i nära förbindelse med konstens historia. Metodiskt söker han efter alternativa, queera, berättelser kopplade till att betrakta en målning. Leiderstam undersöker rutnätet som verktyg för bildkomposition, vilket utvecklades under den italienska renässansen. Rutnätet har haft en central roll inom bildskapande sedan dess, även för fotografi och inte minst för den datagenererade bilden, i en samtid där vi oavbrutet är uppkopplade till ett världsomspännande datanät via våra skärmar. Boken ges ut med stöd av Vetenskapsrådet och Siri och Sven-Ivar Linds fond, Kungliga Akademien för de fria konsterna. </p><p>Matts Leiderstam s art and researched-based work is closely related to the history of painting. He is systematically looking for alternative, queer, narratives relating to viewing a painting. Leiderstam explores the grid as a tool for the composition of images, which was developed during the Italian Renaissance. The grid has been central to image-making ever since, including for photography, and not least for computer-generated images in a contemporary context where we are continuously connected to a global data network via our screens. The book is published with support from the Swedish Research Council and the Siri and Sven-Ivar Lind Fund, Royal Academy of Fine Arts. </p>

Shaping Text Bok
Everyone is a typographer. This is the inevitable conclusion when looking at the way in which today's computer users are forced to make decisions about fonts and layout for their day-to-day communication. Writing, typesetting and printing have become part of almost everyone's experience. However, many users are clueless about how fonts work, what constitutes a functional layout and how to communicate best with readers. There has even been a decline in basic typographic knowledge among young design professionals. And yet, a thoughtful and purpose-driven shaping of text lies at the basic of effective, powerful graphic communication. Shaping Text takes a practical and broad approach to typography. It is aimed at design students and graphic designers, and also at those who are concerned with content: writers, editors and publishers. Showing a wide range of examples from first-rate designers across the world, the book examines why and how typographic designs work well in a given context. Particular attention is given to the team play between the text itself - written language - and the design - the shaping of the text - to form a new, multi-level visual message with a complex content. Many textbooks on typography look at the details of type and lettering first, often taking a historical approach, then zoom out to gradually reveal a larger whole. Shaping Text works the other way around. It starts by looking at graphic products - in print, on the screen and in the environment - and then examines the constituting elements, including type, image, ornament, layout, and colour. Historical examples are used as references for most genres of text-shaping; a chronological overview of type design and printing techniques forms a lengthy appendix rather than the core of the book. Finally Shaping Text is firmly rooted in contemporary design praxis. It discusses the state of the art in type design and technology, and tackles problems and questions that font users may be struggling with. Besides being a typographic writer and consultant for leading companies such as FontShop and MyFonts, the author has worked as a graphic designer and teacher; Shaping Text reflects this broad experience with typographic form and content.
