Other Recent Examples

Other Recent Examples is technically not an artist’s book, nor an exhibition catalogue, nor an essay, nor an exercise in translation; and yet, it manages to be all these things at once. The publication brings together works that address different functions, uses and forms of pedagogy, alongside works that reflect on the relationships between mother tongue, bilingualism and the troubled ecosystem that this in-betweeness sustains. “Other Recent Examples” is fully illustrated in color and includes an essay by Mirene Arsanios, extended work captions, and a series of epigraphs that function as a prologue and point towards Macedonio Fernández’s influence in the conceptualization of the publication. Published on the occasion of Beste adibide berri batzuk (Otros ejemplos recientes) at Artium Museoa, Araba, Spain and  Recent Examples (Outros exemplos recentes) at Lumiar Cité, Lisbon, Portugal.
