Lous Martens - Animal Books For Jaap Zeno Anna Julian Luca
ROMA Publications 2018 ISBN 9789492811073 Acqn 28261
Pb 17x24cm 416pp 1300ills 1100col £38

Lous Martens has five grandchildren - Jaap, Zeno, Anna, Julian, and Luca - and has begun
making an animal scrapbook for each newcomer to the family. Although it is seventeen years
since the first, Jaap, was born, none of the five books are finished yet. Consisting of loosely
pasted pictures of animals that were clipped from newspapers and magazines about art,
literature, and science, plus stamps and photographs from advertising brochures, the books are
enjoyable for their small, ever-evolving changes as new material is added. Interestingly, the
books were never intended to be published, but are now grouped into one big volume, an
embodiment of familial love and dedication.

Yael Davids - Dying Is A Solo

ROMA Publications 2018 ISBN 9789492811097 Acqn 28263
Pb 23x30cm 156pp 127ills 2col £28

Artist Yael Davids produces predominantly performance-based work, sometimes involving herself
as performer and at other times working with groups. Her oeuvre considers the intersection of
personal and political narratives, the collection, and collective heritage, and examines the body as
a site of convergences and conflicts. Along with several other recent works and performances in
Paris, Basel, Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, and Rio de Janeiro, this publication presents her
assemblage for documenta 14, a new sculptural work comprising armoured glass made by a
factory in Kibbutz Tzuba, where she grew up. Born in Israel, Davids currently lives and works in
Amsterdam.

Katinka Bock – Intenso

ROMA Publications 2018 ISBN 9789492811134 Acqn 28264
Pb 21x28cm 174pp 220ills 35col £31.50

Katinka Bock's sculptures and installations emerge through intermediary, transitory, or precarious
stages. Physical processes such as evaporation, heat, and the circulation of flows are apparent,
often through the alteration of materials by interaction with the external environment. This book
marks the occasion of three exhibitions that Bock will present in the space of one year, and is
conceived as a preamble to the series of shows. Produced in close collaboration with Roger
Willems and Louis Luthi, it focuses on what Bock describes as the "periphery" in her work:
photographs that show surfaces, fragments, objects, actions, and forms at rest or manipulated by
the artist.

Elena Narbutaite – Alex

ROMA Publications 2018 ISBN 9789492811110 Acqn 28269
Pb 16x24cm 48pp col ills £15.75

Elena Narbutaite enjoys the nature of discovery. By offering the unexpected, she hopes to create
social situations in which the audience can collectively experience surprise or confusion. 'Alex' is
a lamp, a light programme, and an exhibition by Narbutaite that began during a 2016 New Year's
Eve party in her Vilnius apartment. After bringing in the new year, the lamp travelled to
Kunstverein Munchen, where it was installed above a window at the foyer entrance, pointed
directly into the eyes of visitors. This book marks the year-long event using text excerpted from
the film 'Exotica' by Atom Egoyan, as well as text interventions by Bernardo Jose de Souza and
Chris Fitzpatrick.
