The Swiss artist Miriam Cahn (*1949, Basel) deals with political and social themes in oil paintings; charcoal, chalk, and colored and lead pencil drawings; and in photographs, films, and installations. Strong color is characteristic of her work, forming a stark contrast to the recurring motifs of violence, tenderness, war, destruction, and physical infirmity. Her habit of commenting upon her work in writing is a golden thread running throughout Cahn's career. She illuminates her own art, commenting in the process on art and world events, and she sets up the texts opposite her artworks in exhibitions and publications. "Writing in rage" is the first compilation of her writing by itself, and includes essays, journal entries, and correspondence with friends, foes, family members, and gallerists. The book provides very personal insights into Cahn's life, her family, and the art market, introducing the reader to a disputatious, independent spirit. --Publisher's website.

A tribute to Abbie Hoffmann's pamphlet of the same name, Steal this Book documents eleven recent performative projects by Spanish artist Dora García. Edited by Franc̜ois Piron, the book presents the private correspondence of the artist with the various interpreters of the situations she sets up in the public space. It proposes a documentation of a body of work without an overview, nor an official line, since it takes neither the artist point of view nor the critic's. Instead, it discloses questions, misunderstandings and arguments, making this book part suspense story, part user's manual, part script for a stand-up comedy. Steal this Book is presented in exhibitions as a Dora García sculpture meant to be stolen, but can also be found in selected bookstores worldwide.

Un réexamen du rôle des avant-gardes féminines dans le champ de la performance et de la danse : une publication somptueuse avec plus de 2.500 documents autour de Valentine de Saint-Point, de Marinetti, du futurisme, de Canudo, des Ballets Russes, de l'expressionnisme allemand et américain (photographies, lettres manuscrites, dessins, gravures, manifestes, éditions originales et programmes). La première étape de l'exposition Feminine Futures, conçue par Adrien Sina, a lieu à la Biennale Performa de New York en 2009, à l'Italian Cultural Institute. Structurée autour d'une collection personnelle unique, elle comprend d'innombrables œuvres inédites dont une partie est présentée dans le cadre de l'exposition Danser sa vie, au Centre Georges Pompidou en 2011-2012. Le retour à la source à travers des documents photographiques, filmiques ou manuscrits en partie inconnus des historiens de l'art et des collections publiques, permet de franchir une nouvelle étape dans la recherche des prémices de la modernité dans ces zones peu explorées des actions éphémères qui laissent peu de traces matérielles. Nous sommes là aux origines de la performance et des pratiques pluridisciplinaires qui ont inspiré plusieurs générations d'artistes tout au long du siècle dernier jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Une matrice incontournable reste ici à explorer pour le décryptage des dissidences et des innovations sans lesquelles l'art au féminin n'aurait jamais eu sa propre histoire – insoumise à l'hégémonie des « ismes » initiés par des artistes au masculin. Avec Barbara Morgan, Loïe Fuller, Martha Graham, Josephine Baker, Isadora Duncan, Vera Fokina and Anna Pavlova.
