In a gallery of Petersburg there is an exhibition of exotic animals: parrots, monkeys and crocodiles. The crocodile is the greatest attraction and gets the attention of Mr. Matveich, who unwisely teases him and ends up being eaten. The screams of Mr Matveich’s wife and his dear friend and witness of the incident, meet the still stronger screams of the owner of the crocodile. The latter fears that the ‘meal’ is too heavy to be digested and will kill his beloved crocodile. Then the unbelievable happens: from the belly of the crocodile, it is Mr. Matveich who, alive and well, shouts of the reptiles new and unusual condition: an incredibly comfortable elastic stomach. Why do not take advantage? People will come from far and wide to hear what the man inside the crocodile has to say and, paying a quarter of a ruble each, will make him a fortune. But human nature feeds on lies and the truth is not always newsworthy. The next day the newspapers report: Helpless crocodile forced to swallow a drunk! A masterpiece of irony, a masterpiece of Dostoevsky.

Maria Ginzburg - Memories of the Dust Accordion Book The project is dedicated to the Apuan Alps and to all those landscapes which, for trivial reasons linked to profit-making purposes of private individuals, are in danger of disappearing. The intent is to highlight the problems generated by a system that compromises the complex balance of nature, of these mountains victims of mass production. The exhibition also highlights the passive acceptance by the community, of permanent damage to this collective heritage, which took millennia for its formation and which it will no longer be possible to recover future. The underlying theme of the work is the latent memory of calcium carbonate, the material that forms marble and yes presented as a powder, the genesis of which dates back to a life cycle and a thousand-year history of transformation and continuous structural modification, which leads to the creation of mountain ranges. In the contemporary world, this material, obtained by transforming extracted marble blocks into powder from the mountain, has recently gone from waste residue to speculation, now used for industrial whitening processes, involving products such as paper or toothpaste. The leporello presented at the exhibition, with the aim of narrating the duplicity of the path of this material, presents two different reading verses, which allow you to read the work both from right to left, and vice versa. This is to narrate, on the one hand, the very slow pace of the millennial natural evolutionary history of marble, with the complexity that guaranteed its formation, both to describe the destructive work of the human being and the speed with which the extraction processes irreparably and fatally affect the landscape. The visible contrast between the two sides shows the long-term consequences of harmful and selfish behaviors of man, offering a starting point for an ethical reflection and self-responsibility on the issues of pollution, offering an alternative perspective. A perspective in which education for environmental sustainability becomes an essential core to provide coordinates that can lead to more informed choices in everyday life, through the construction of a active and participatory critical awareness. The cultural investment allows a real emancipation from the logic of profit and enslavement, in which harmful consumer dynamics generate waste and an aggressive lifestyle towards the planet. All this leads to reflections on the possibility of creating a new way of understanding the collective and private space, in the light of alternative solutions that guarantee real well-being, which can be expressed through respectful and harmonious coexistence of man with the surrounding space, where well-being is not expressed solely in hedonistic attitudes, but in the real and tangible improvement of the quality of life. The meaning of our existence on the planet is found in the indispensability of empathy, of cooperation. In a point of view overall it is clear that the ethical sense of our daily life can only be acquired recognizing oneself in the different, be it the natural world of vegetation and animals, or man himself. In conclusion, the path traced in the pages of "memories of the dust" wants to affirm the link indissoluble bond that binds man to the surrounding environment, starting from the analysis of the processes of creation of life, and highlighting how much the loss of the ultimate meaning of living is the primary cause of inner malaise of the planet.

GRRRz Comic Art Books presents Changes by Mp5

64 boards in box set + 2, size cm 22x22, b/w, 600 numbered copies.

The I-ching, known as the book of Changes, is a chinese oracular book wrote about the year 1000 b.c.
The text is composed of 64 judgments, oracles that represent the possible states of the cosmos change.


Changes is the visual investigation of Mp5 inspired by the 64 judgments of the I-ching.

For indisputable artist's request, the boards are packed in ascending order corresponding to thaone of the hexagrams of the I-ching, from the first to the sixty-fourth, but they are not numbered.
The collector who wants to keep intact the initial order must not mix the boards.
This request preserves the work to resemble the reality, where everyone can take an ordered system and mix it how he likes, causing and experiencing the change, and the risk to reach the beauty of chaos.

.

Some people know MP5 for his large mural works, others because his creations have become symbols of transfeminism and queer culture. His works have been exhibited all over the world and have appeared in major newspapers. In this book, MP5 has collected years of his production for the first time, selecting and reordering images based on three declinations - Erotic Corpus, Hermetic and Heretic - to recompose the story of his artistic practice.

“Everything that acts is a cruelty.” – Antonin Artaud – “Separated from each other by the general loss of any language adequate to describe the facts, in the conspicuous consumption of nothingness.” – Guy Debord – We go round and round in big circles just to come back where we started. A narrative sequence with no end, no beginning, lost in an eternal comeback made of silence and bold lines. No words, only sawed off images that leaves breathless. The many stories told in the book are made of distortions for shut eyes. Pages connected as if they were in a sort of accordion of boundless imaginative power. Scenes, connections, power and strength dynamics clash and struggle, fading away and coming to life. Like if dying and living wasn’t enough. A road with no directions to come back home. The whole book is a palindrome in which the characters are actors on a stage/landscape, frozen in actions that reveal two possible interpretations, they can be read in a way or another. a small installation rather than a book, its pages connected in a visual accordion that goes from the first to the last and goes on the back. To unfold the whole book it’s necessary a big floor where it can be laid, To close it requests the same meticulous skills used to fold maps. This sequence of scenes – that invade each other without interruption, switching like movie scenes that despite their differences are in the same tracking shot – it’s a silent book. Not only because it has no words in it: it’s silent because silence is the sensitive quality of image, transcends from all its characters, players in stories with clear effects but unknown causes. Silent is the house on which the rails go through, in the image right after the cover, the house that raises in the night showing its wrecked foundations as roots to the indifferent look of a chicken, silent is the farmer on a carpet of eggs or stones keeping a chicken whose neck he just broke, not so far a gas station watching dull nothing, silent are the kids, the families. Palindromes is a black tale in which nothing is what it seems, a tale in which good and evil mingle and judgement is wiped out. Dimensions cm. 23x33 26 pages hand screenprinted and handbound. 2012
