Muslim Matter
Revolver Publishing by VVV 2016 ISBN 9783957633590 Acqn 26647
Hb 18x24cm 170pp 50col ills 23.50

This book brings together photographs, objects, and essays as a way to present the overlooked
and sometimes under-represented aspects of everyday life across various Muslim communities
and societies. In doing so, it recognises and reflects upon the importance of material and visual
cultures.

Our selection comprises of material gathered at the Berlin Graduate School Muslim Cultures and
Societies: photographs that researchers have recorded during fieldwork, objects and artefacts
that they have brought back from the field and accompanying essays that feature multi-
disciplinary perspectives on the subject.

Muslim Matter underscores the complexity and heterogeneity of Muslim lifeworlds: places where
prayer goes hand in hand with ideas of amusement and simple pleasures offset the harshness of
conflict-ridden environments; also communities which are in conversation with non-Muslim
majorities; and occasions where the human-ness of the subject takes precedence over its
Muslim-ness.

ort_m [Migration Memory]


Revolver Publishing by VVV 2016 ISBN 9783957633651 Acqn 27296
Pb 24x17cm 136pp 140ills 70col 20

ort_m stands for migration and its memory, as well as for the Mediterranean Sea. Topics that
move us are remembered and reconsidered: war, forced migration, globalisation, and colonialism
in non-European, European, and local perspectives, and their significance for art production. It
was our aim to present to the public the life experiences of migrants through art and to provide a
platform for dialogue.

From September to December 2015, artists from Hamburg produced art in workshops together
with migrants from non-European countries, many of which were themselves professional artists.
At the beginning of 2016, the participants presented this work in progress in an exhibition.
Migrants from Lampedusa and Ghana were also invited to introduce their projects.
Through installations, objects, sculptures, prints, film, photography, performance, rhythm and
poetry production, as well as art in public space, the ort_m exhibition opened space for reflection.
The accompanying programme invited visitors to lectures, film evenings, as well as to guided city
tours to vestiges of migration and colonialism.

ort_m is a model approach for the conception of transcultural spaces, in which the voices of those
are heard whose histories have, to date, been ignored by the European majority culture. In these
Third Spaces (Homi K. Bhabha) own perspectives, remembrances, narratives and images are
focused. ort_m invited citizens from Hamburg to deal with artistic views of migration and mobility
ciphers of globalization that will increasingly change the lives of all of us in urban society.

Orkan Telhan - Designature. The Nature Of Signatures In Art And Design


Revolver Publishing by VVV 2016 ISBN 9783957633620 Acqn 27297
Pb 20x28cm 187pp 115ills 95col 28.95

How shall our signatures define us, even as they define themselves?

Designature interrogates the nature of the essential signature found in everything, from the
simplest forms of life to humans, machines, and everyday objects.

The book features new kinds of signatures, living organisms, algorithms, tools, and
visualizationsthat are designed in light of new theories and technologies from artificial
intelligence, synthetic biology, new materialism, and object-oriented ontology.

These designs ultimately serve as critical reflections on society, and offer alternative forms of
critique to urgent issues such as xenophobia, religious fundamentalism, and the ethics of
manipulating nature.

Sabine Schirdewahn - Of Love And Care


Revolver Publishing by VVV 2017 ISBN 9783957633699 Acqn 27299
Hb 24x19cm 96pp 54col ills 22.95

Sabine Schirdewahns fascination with Icelandic houses and the memories they hold is the
inspiration for this series of photographs. In her exploration of deserted houses and interiors,
many kept in pristine, museum-like condition by their family owners, Schirdewahn seeks out the
tangible and intangible aspects of remembrance and privacy how the special qualities of a
place, personal histories, evidence of love and care, can be preserved and revisited, or likewise
fade away. In her visits to multiple such houses scattered across the beautiful Icelandic
landscape or set in fishing towns, she offers a glimpse of poverty, new opportunities, and the
narrative of memory in the modern age.
