With extensive photography and special foldouts, this book recreates the experience of Yoshitomo Nara’s Pinacoteca 2021, a multi-room installation exhibited at Pace in London.
Set among Nara’s recent sculpture and paintings, his small house-like structure, reworked from an earlier project titled London Mayfair House, evokes curiosity and contemplation. The artist’s signature wide-eyed figures adorn Pinacoteca 2021 both inside and out, painted directly on the structure and on wood and canvas hung by Nara himself, as well as drawn on paper, used envelopes, and cardboard boxes.

Crafty, personal and full with tradition, Fadhel Mourali's family history of basket weaving is akin to queering in its associations with care and rooting
From a local tradition coming out of a small historical world to a tradition involved in a vast queer-worlding of making,The Last Basket Makers from Risa refers to a lineage of artisans producing the enigmatic Hedared basket—from Lennart, the basket’s first ‘last maker’—to Lennart’s great-grandson, Fadhel Mourali. This is his report on an open-ended process of identifying and crafting the material of kinship.
Crafty, personal, and entangled with tradition, Fadhel’s research and own making share stories out of and surrounding the rural community of Risa—the former home of his great-grandfather. Here, a dialogical and productive patchwork unfolds, exploring tradition, evolution, and adaptation. This process—akin to queering—includes expected and unexpected entanglements of care and rooting.

San Sebastián, Spain, 1939. A young Eduardo Chillida mustered the courage to ask a girl, Pilar Belzunce, to the movies. They married eleven years later and remained together for the rest of their lives, as Eduardo, supported by Pilar, developed an artistic practice that would earn international acclaim. In this memoir, their daughter—author and filmmaker Susana Chillida— draws an intimate portrait of the couple’s world, offering insight into their professional, social, and family life. Eduardo is captured not only as a pioneering artist and incisive thinker but also as a husband and a father, while Pilar is shown to be a woman and mother ahead of her time, as well as the “pillar” of Chillida’s life and work.
Both an extraordinary glimpse into the life of a visionary artist and a deeply personal remembrance, this book is, in Susana Chillida’s words, “a love story. A family story. And a story of the love of art.”

In conversation with Kahlo’s feminine attributes with which she often depicted herself—such as traditional embroidered Tehuana dresses or flowers in her hair—and instead sports a loose-fitting man’s suit and short-clipped haircut. Her high-heeled shoes and one dangling earring remain, however, along with her characteristic penetrating outward gaze. Locks of hair are strewn across the floor, a severed braid lies next to her chair, and the artist holds a pair of scissors across her lap. This androgynous persona may refer to Kahlo’s own bisexuality, while the lyrics of a popular Mexican song that appear at top suggest the address of a lover: “Look, if I loved you it was because of your hair. Now that you are without hair, I don’t love you anymore.”
Personal isolation—its pain and its strength—is a recurring force across the sixty self-portraits Kahlo painted in her career and for which she became celebrated. “I paint self-portraits because I am so often alone,” Kahlo once explained, “because I am the person I know best.”
