A multivolume autobiography in intimate snapshots and nudes 
Swedish photographer Lina Scheynius (born 1981) has spent nearly two decades relentlessly recording the scenes of her life with her film camera. Working in both color and black and white, Scheynius compiles nude self-portraiture with intimate snapshots of family, friends and lovers. The result is a chronological and deeply personal rendering of the artist's life. Taken between 1991 and 2018, the photographs also offer an unprecedented insight into the life of a 21st-century woman, from the recklessness of young love to the wonder of motherhood. Between 2007 and 2019, Lina Scheynius organized her expansive photographic archive into 11 self-published books which have received international acclaim. Available together in its entirety for the first time as a box set, this comprehensive collection offers a rare sensitivity and intensity against the backdrop of an increasingly digitized and impersonal contemporary world.

Poetic? Poétique ? Anthologie 1967-2017 is the first book that encapsulates the entire range of poetry―which has rarely been published and was never presented in an exhibition―of French artist Bernar Venet. This collection of 248 poems significantly contributed to the development of conceptual writing in the 1960’s. Today, the prose is indicative of one of the very first steps of a major change in the twentieth century: an influx of writing which lacks creative intent, that happens to be the type of content we consume in the digital era.\nWritten in French, English or with mathematical signs, the poems of Bernar Venet―lists, texts in prose and diagrams – serve to display information in a poetic fashion. In his literary creations, Bernar Venet brings a visual and musical dimension to the knowledge he portrays on paper. At times, the un-comprehension of the text and the uselessness of the information gives the collection poetic power and a kind of encyclopaedic charm. Poetic? Poétique ?

A revelatory, long-overdue survey of the bold and explicit feminist painting of Betty Tompkins, from the late 1960s to the present 
This first monographic work on the New York–based feminist painter Betty Tompkins (born 1945) presents around 50 paintings and drawings made during her career. Tompkins is best known for her large-format Fuck Paintings, a series launched in 1969 depicting close-up sex, the source images of which are taken from pornographic magazines. The series is famous for having been censored many times. 
In this and other series, such as the Cunt Paintings and Pussy Paintings, Tompkins uses a cold and restricted palette of black, white and gray for the pornographic images that she appropriates. Stylistically close to photorealism, the images are cropped and produced with an airbrush on pastel backgrounds. Sometimes the artist covers up the image with misogynistic texts. 
Although her paintings were rarely shown, due to their explicit content, Tompkins has influenced a younger generation. Since the 1970s, she has tirelessly questioned what determines the codes of representation of female bodies. This work thus takes on a new dimension within the framework of the recent #MeToo movement. 
In this essential volume, collages and drawings reveal Tompkins' work processes, highlighting her grid work, a major synthesis of minimalism and formalism. Among the works on paper, the 2014 Photo Drawings series is unveiled here for the first time.
