Ken Gonzales-Day
Through visualizing, absence, and erasure, Ken Gonzales-Day reveals the deeply political act of seeing, forcing us to reconsider the histories we inherit. Ken Gonzales-Day's work confronts the role of the visual in conveying history or in history's absences, including bodies and spaces deliberately erased, forgotten, or never acknowledged. As illustrated and discussed in Ken Gonzalez-Day: History's "Nevermade," his photography, film, drawing, and painting interrogate race and power, questioning how bodies are seen, rendered, or made invisible. His art moves between presence and absence, compelling viewers to confront their own position in relation to systems of oppression and representation. This volume, accompanying the exhibition of the same name, offers the first comprehensive study of Gonzales-Day's practice. Organized around his major series, sections of the book--including Rethinking History, Collecting Race, Forging Community, and Redrawing Boundaries--explore how his work engages with archives, bodies, museums, and public space to challenge institutional narratives. Through critical analysis and over one hundred full-color images, Ken Gonzales-Day: History's "Nevermade" illuminates the profound political and theoretical stakes of his art. Essential reading for students, scholars, and practitioners in art history, photography, museum studies, American history, and decolonial and queer studies, this book is a testament to the power of art to reckon with the past and imagine new futures.
Radical Worker
Timothy Speed - neurodivergent artist, poverty theorist, and relentless disruptor - throws himself between assembly line, boardroom, and bureaucratic frontline. As a Radical Worker, he refuses the paycheck as measure of worth, working instead by moral coherence, ecological resonance, and existential sense. Whether infiltrating corporations undercover or applying to run Germany's state TV, Speed exposes the deep protocols of a system that converts dignity into obedience and creativity into currency. For the Artistic Research community, this book proves that art isn't commentary - it's infrastructure. Research happens in real-time, in real life. For Critical Autism Studies, it's a rare inside-out account: autistic intensity, rule clarity and focused resistance sharpen into a tool that cuts through institutional myth. For anyone forced to work - or forced not to - this is a living roadmap: self-determined labour, basic income, and the politics of commoning are not just imagined here - they're practiced, tested, lived. Speed flips the script: poverty is not a lack, but a refusal to play by a broken game. Forced labour is social exclusion. And the true metric of wealth? The time left untouched by the system's noise. Radical Worker is manifesto, fieldwork, and survival guide - a call not to adapt, but to remake the world from the bottom up.
'Our Little Gang'
Through text and full-color illustrations, uncovers the lives and times of the unruly Vorticists, whose innovative abstract artworks shattered early twentieth-century conventions. The Vorticists, a rebellious cohort of young artists in early twentieth-century England, defied the conventions of the art world with their distinctive abstract creations. Despite the brevity of their existence, from 1911 to 1914, their startling innovations left an indelible mark on English art history. In this book James King explores the personalities and lives of these colorful individuals, capturing the tumultuous environment in which they thrived. The narrative presents biographies of the group's members, such as Jessica Dismorr, Wyndham Lewis, William Roberts, Helen Saunders, and Edward Wadsworth--"our little gang," as Ezra Pound called them--highlighting personal conflicts and providing a concise, highly readable history of the movement. This book is ideal for art enthusiasts, historians, and anyone intrigued by avant-garde movements of the early twentieth century.

Mass Performance
Mass Performance: Systems and Citizens examines mass performance systems from the first major festival of the French Revolution through the democratic and socialist movements of the nationalizing nineteenth and twentieth centuries in Europe, to totalitarian communist and socialist regimes in the twentieth century, ending with contemporary North Korea. While other scholars have studied specific mass performances, this study synthesizes the phenomenon across centuries and countries, focusing on its systemization. Modern nations defining or redefining their identities not only organized mass performances, but also planned to make those performances a permanent component of nationhood. Kimberly Jannarone reveals that mass performance systems, from synchronized gymnastics to choreographed rallies, encapsulate ideals and debates within emerging nations about the relationship of citizens to each other and to their leaders, playing a generative and reflective role in the culture and politics of the modern era. Mass Performance analyzes the specifics of performance choreography and design, the organizational planning and thinking behind the systems, the material circumstances of each system's emergence, and the broader intellectual milieu in which they developed. Although not a comprehensive study of such events, Jannarone's analysis of the selected mass performance systems yields new theoretical perspectives on these phenomena, a central focus of her study being how political leaders find ways to create a physically coordinated mass body politic, even during times of hardship and war. By interpreting and historicizing mass assemblies of bodies, this study analyzes the choreographies and organizations that brought thousands of people together as an ensemble and kept them together in meaning-making motion.

The Book of Caligomos Art
The Book of Caligomos Art introduces an original philosophical and artistic theory known as Caligomos Art Philosophy (C'ArtP). This theory interweaves three core concepts: Caliginosity (the obscure, shadowy, and mysterious dimensions of existence), Kosmos (the interconnected and harmonious order of the universe), and Metaxy (the transformative space "in-between" opposites). These core ideas form the foundation for a new way of approaching art, creativity, and cultural understanding.At the heart of the book is a triadic framework of Transcendence, Paradigm, and Reality (T/P/R), which serves as a lens through which all artistic creation and human experiences can be interpreted. Drawing from ancient philosophies, including those of Plato, Heraclitus, Lao Tzu, and Buddhist and Daoist traditions, alongside modern thinkers like Ken Wilber, Carl Jung, and Ned Herrmann, the book offers a vision of how art can act as both a spiritual and cognitive map for human evolution.The book unfolds across multiple dimensions: Historical exploration from Mesopotamia to a speculative future, Symbolic geometry (Torus, Pyramid, Rhombohedron), Dualities and paradoxes such as Dialetheia and Enantiodromia, Philosophical synthesis between rationalism and intuitionism, Case studies and critiques of artworks, A gamified application of C'ArtP in the form of a board game called C'Elysium, designed to help players navigate life through creativity.With its poetic language, interdisciplinary structure, and ambitious vision, The Book of Caligomos Art invites readers-artists, philosophers, educators, and visionaries-to transcend dichotomies and engage in a more holistic and creative interaction with reality.

Agnès Varda
 A pioneer of the Nouvelle Vague, an indefatigable experimenter and manipulator of audiovisual materials, and more recently a brilliant creator of exhibitions and installations, Varda succeeded in interpreting the changes of a rapidly transforming world, al竅ways open to encounters with others and to social, aesthetic, and technological innovations. Sustained by an insatiable, encyclopedic passion for images, and by the spirit of a gatherer-glaneuse who knows how to transform the archive into a living entity, an inexhaustible generator of new stories and inventions, her work astonishes with its thematic and formal richness, while retaining an unmistakable "Varda style". The essays collected in this book, while seeking to place Varda's work within its contemporary context, also aim to trace her potential legacy. They bring together scholars who have explored the ways in which Varda engaged with other media and artistic forms, constantly in a state of hybridization.
