This new anthology brings together visions, experiences and critical interdisciplinary methodologies that have been instrumental in the development of the language of moving images since 2010. New essays and conversations reflect on radical technological and poetic transformations in the works of the generation of digital native artists.
Center of the Frame is the artist’s first monograph and brings together paintings made between 1997 and 2024. The publication provides an in-depth look at Eisler’s fascination with cinema and with the transmission of images through the various formats of analog film, television broadcasts, Internet video and, of course, the painted canvas.
On the occasion of PROVENCE’s 15th anniversary, the reader My Alphabet presents 26 texts published by PROVENCE between 2009 and 2024, either in print or digitally in the weekly newsletter. These texts are sorted alphabetically, ranging from A for Amphetamine to N for Ne travaillez jamais to Z for Gen Z.
This publication is devoted exclusively to the metal works of Sidsel Meineche Hansen. Catalogued here is every cast, forged, and fabricated metal sculpture made since 2017. Poems by the artist Diego Marcon annotate and respond to the individual pieces.
This compelling artist’s book is built around KOOL (“cabbage” in Dutch), an original font designed by Reus, somewhere between a plant alphabet and concrete poetry. The publication draws on the type specimen book tradition to present new typefaces.
Through a rich selection of images, this artist’s book, published in two editions—gold and silver—explores the birth, life and death of Francesco Gennari’s work Vorrei perdermi e non trovarmi più, 2022, exhibited for the first time at the Ciaccia Levi Gallery in Paris.

KOOL. A Type Specimen is an artist’s book built around KOOL (“cabbage” in Dutch), a new font designed by Magali Reus, winner of the seventh edition of the Arnaldo Pomodoro Prize for Sculpture. Midway between a plant alphabet and concrete poetry, the KOOL font is created in collaboration with Antonio de la Hera and Kia Tasbihgou and includes twenty-six lowercase letters, twenty-six uppercase letters, a complete set of numbers, sixteen punctuation marks, and six symbols.
The project is the upshot of a three-year research project focused on the visual and calligraphic relationship between scraps of red cabbage and letters of the Roman alphabet. The volume is inspired by the traditional format of the type specimen book, or type foundry sample book, used to show clients the myriad graphic possibilities, layouts, and configurations unique to a new typeface.
The book features texts by design writer Emily King and Rebecca May Johnson, a food specialist, and was created in conjunction with Off Script: a solo exhibition by Reus staged by the Arnaldo Pomodoro Foundation in collaboration with the Museo del Novecento in Milan.
