Since 2015, John Divola has been making photographic projects in an abandoned air force housing complex in Victorville, California. By intervening in the buildings' disused interiors with spray paint then photographing the modified scenes, Divola creates work that sits at an intriguing juncture of photography, sculpture, and installation. The images in Terminus gaze down derelict hallways towards dark shapes which Divola has painted at their ends. Through layers of paint, dust, and plaster, they exert an unmistakable pull on the viewer, at once suggesting the deterministic forces of fate and the rupturing possibility of escape. Arranging and juxtaposing theses images within the book as a considered object, the artist leads the viewer on a stochastic and entrancing traverse through the abandoned compounds.

In Place of a Show is a compelling account of Western theatre buildings in the 21st century: theatres stripped of their primary purpose, lying empty, preserved as museums, or demolished. Playfully combining first-person narratives, scholarly research and visual documents, Augusto Corrieri explores the material and imaginative potentials of these places, charting interconnections between humans, birds, vegetation, and the beguiling animations of inanimate things, such as walls, curtains and seats. Across four chapters we learn of the uncanny dismantling and reconstitution of a German Baroque auditorium during the Second World War; the phantasmal remains of a demolished music hall in London's East End; a Renaissance Italian theatre, fleetingly transformed into an aviary by the appearance of a swallow; and a lavish opera house emerging from the Amazon rainforest. In these pages we are invited to discover theatres as sites of anomalous encounters and surprising coincidences: places that might reveal the performative entanglement of human and nonhuman worlds.

In de “Atlas van Vergeten België” wekken fotograaf Bart Vanacker en Reinout Bossuyt meer dan vijftig vergeten plaatsen terug tot leven. In elke provincie zochten ze de resten op van wat ooit was: een vernielde abdij, uitgerangeerde treinen, brokstukken van architecturale parels en sporen van de industriële revolutie. Monumenten groot en klein die als ruïnes bevroren zijn. Het boek toont je plaatsen in ons land waarvan je het bestaan zelfs niet kon vermoeden. Aan de hand van foto’s, verhalen en kaarten kom je het verhaal te weten achter de puinhopen van het verleden. Bovendien wijzen de auteurs je de weg naar die plaatsen zodat je zelf kunt ontdekken wat er nu nog te zien is.
