This new anthology brings together visions, experiences and critical interdisciplinary methodologies that have been instrumental in the development of the language of moving images since 2010. New essays and conversations reflect on radical technological and poetic transformations in the works of the generation of digital native artists.
Center of the Frame is the artist’s first monograph and brings together paintings made between 1997 and 2024. The publication provides an in-depth look at Eisler’s fascination with cinema and with the transmission of images through the various formats of analog film, television broadcasts, Internet video and, of course, the painted canvas.

This compelling artist’s book is built around KOOL (“cabbage” in Dutch), an original font designed by Reus, somewhere between a plant alphabet and concrete poetry. The publication draws on the type specimen book tradition to present new typefaces.
Through a rich selection of images, this artist’s book, published in two editions—gold and silver—explores the birth, life and death of Francesco Gennari’s work Vorrei perdermi e non trovarmi più, 2022, exhibited for the first time at the Ciaccia Levi Gallery in Paris.

The Other Side of Silence is the first monograph of the artist Hrair Sarkissian—one of the leading figures working with photography globally today. This cerebral book of multi-disciplinary essays and images explores histories of disappearance, the architecture of violence, and the potential of the medium of photography itself. While encompassing the moving image, sculpture, sound, and installation, Sarkissian’s practice is rooted in his photographs. His lifelong use of a large-format camera relates to the artist’s interest in the role that chance plays in capturing hidden narratives of conflict, trauma, and displacement. Acting as an archaeologist and a storyteller, the artist draws upon personal and collective memory to reveal stories that official records cannot tell. The viewer is invited to consider the formal aspects of the image, to breathe in its silence and to interrogate what might live beneath its surface. This monograph accompanies Hrair Sarkissian’s eponymous touring exhibition organized by Bonniers Konsthall, Stockholm; the Bonnefanten, Maastricht; and Sharjah Art Foundation.

Born 1973 in Damascus, Syria, Hrair Sarkissian gained his foundational training at his father’s photographic studio in Damascus. In 2010 he completed a BFA in photography at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam. He lives and works in London.
