Ingenious sculptural takes on idiomatic language from a leading Brazilian artistFor his installation at the Brazilian pavilion at the 59th Venice Biennale (2022), Jonathas de Andrade (born 1982) draws on idiomatic expressions using metaphors of the body to develop a series of two- and three-dimensional works that render tangible the poetry of these expressions. For example, two immense ears placed at the entrance and exit of the pavilion allow the public to "go in one ear and out the other," while an inflatable balloon, which invades the space at various times of the day, alludes to a "heart coming out of the mouth." The emphasis on the body, especially the body of the man from the Brazilian Northeast, is also characteristic of several of the artist's earlier works featured in this book, which also includes essays by the publication's editor Jacopo Crivelli Visconti, and Clarissa Diniz.

Key performances and new works from the Cuban activist and artist famed for her courageous defiance of governmental oppression Over the past three decades, Cuban performance artist Tania Bruguera (born 1968) has consistently and inventively blurred the line between art and activism. She first gained notoriety for her 1997 solo performance The Burden of Guilt (El peso de la culpa), a response to the mass suicide of a group of Indigenous Cubans who had consumed soil to demonstrate resistance to Spanish occupation. Subsequent works have frequently put her in conflict with the Cuban government: most notoriously, in Tatlin's Whisper #6, performed in her native Havana in 2009, she set up a stage for audience members to speak uncensored for one minute.Featuring a die-cut cover, Tania Bruguera: Let Truth Be, Though the World Perish includes her most significant performances and installations, as well as a new work designed for Milan's Padiglione d'Arte Contemporanea.

Il volume presenta il catalogo ragionato della produzione documentata di Arredoluce, che conta 555 fra lampade e complementi di arredo, e la ricostruzione della storia dell'azienda e dei designer che vi hanno lavorato. Arredoluce nasce nel 1943 a Monza grazie ad Angelo Lelii, imprenditore e progettista: la sua curiosità per le innovazioni provenienti dall'estero, unita all'amore per i materiali della tradizione e a una cura maniacale per i dettagli, ha segnato la linea di produzione dell'azienda. Con Arredoluce, di cui si ricordano le partecipazioni alle Triennali di Milano dal 1947 al 1960, hanno collaborato importanti designer tra cui Gio Ponti, Ettore Sottsass jr. e Nanda Vigo.
