cover: HEIDE HATRY: HEADS AND TALEScover: HEIDE HATRY: HEADS AND TALESThe artist Heide Hatry initiated 3 years ago a collaborative project with 28 writers. The result was published as Heads and Tales by CHARTA Art Books, Milan/ New York in 2009. An exhibition will tour through the USA and Europe to promote the book.The portraits in Heads and Tales are photographic documentations of sculptures Heide Hatry created out of animal skin and body parts. She invited writers to select one image and create a life for her. As the work addresses issues of violence, death and gender identity, the writing reflects similar concerns as they are specific to women. “Finding a way to be a woman is finding a way to live with fatal knowledge,” says Catharine MacKinnon in her introduction, and Hatry and her collaborators speak that fatal knowledge which others are at pains to suppress.

nparadoxa cover volume 30

volume 30 of n.paradoxa was published in July 2012. There is now a dynamic searchable site of information on feminist art and n.paradoxa articles at http://www.ktpress.co.uk
The 15 year history of the journal is archived at this site.

A short history of journal
n.paradoxa was set up in Dec 1996 as an online journal. 21 issues have been published since that date. These are now archived at www.ktpress.co.uk as the former site at web.ukonline.co.uk closed in January 2011.
FACES members may know this former online site better than the print version which began in January 1998.
In January 1998, a print version of n.paradoxa was started. This has been published bi-annually since then. These two forms have very different content.

Reality and Documentation: An artist talk between Rosa Barba, Aernout Mik and Hito Steyerl

Submitted by dia on Fri, 09/01/2009 - 16:59.

Throughout the last years the role of documentarisms in contemporary art was frequently and widely discussed. At its centre, there was always the question of the capacities of documentarisms to represent reality, the question in how far those documentarisms necessarily deviate from reality. In an artist talk between Rosa Barba, Aernout Mik and Hito Steyerl those
documentarisms will be discussed as a means of artistic praxis. All three artists base their work on documentary forms and researches but at the same time their ways of dealing with those means differ largely.
