ABC BASEL
Curated by Samuel Leuenberger () and Mousse Publishing.

Basel is more than a city of museums and galleries: it is a constellation of cultural spaces in constant dialogue, forming a living organism of thought, vision, and care.

The publication takes the form of a syllabary, bringing together twelve voices from Basel’s vibrant art landscape—part of a much broader and dynamic cultural ecosystem.

On shelves from January 2026.

The exhibition “I Am the Last Woman Object,” curated by Leonie Radine (), at , Bolzano, marks the grand finale of a touring retrospective devoted to the French artist Nicola L. whose journey began at in London (2024), then continued at , Rennes, and (both 2025). From the outset, L.’s practice was situated within the history of the postwar avant-gardes, from Pop art to Nouveau Réalisme and Fluxus, yet she resisted any strict affiliation. Instead, she occupied in-between spaces of creation, shaped by her fierce freedom to do as she pleased and by frequent travels that nourished a profoundly nomadic oeuvre at the crossroads of cultures and disciplines.

OUT NOW: “Monia Ben Hamouda: Path of Totality”
“Path of Totality” is the first monograph dedicated to the work of Monia Ben Hamouda (.benhamouda.studio) and is published on the occasion of her exhibition at in Locarno, curated by Gioia Dal Molin ().

Drawing on the metaphor of the total solar eclipse—the “path of totality” is the area on Earth in which this phenomenon can be seen—the book reflects on night, suspension, and the conditions of making art in a time of political and existential uncertainty.

Conceived as the “crystallization of a moment,” the publication brings together images and texts in a porous, polyphonic structure. Contributions by Övül Ö. Durmuşoğlu (), Beya Othmani (), and Sira Pizà () expand the project through multiple perspectives, situating Ben Hamouda’s work within Mediterranean, spiritual, and political contexts.

OUT NOW: “Parallels”

This publication follows “Parallels,” the exhibition presented at the from January 30 to December 18, 2022. Conceived as a cross between a collective and individual format, it unfolded in a constant fluctuation between five spaces and three chapters, bringing together 19 proposals/exhibitions, each accompanied by texts, as well as 15 concerts and performances presented during 9 evenings.

The volume retraces this “multiversal” experience through texts, floor plans, lists of works, illustrations, and ghostly images.

OUT NOW: “James Bloom: Half Cheetah”

James Bloom’s () “Half Cheetah” project uses real-time Reinforcement Learning AI models. Each piece presents 3D scans of humans running on a never-ending journey toward an unknown destination, while a second RL model analyses their motion and dynamically reorders it according to alternative goals, often producing loops of repetition or failure. What emerges is an abstract, perpetual flow of body movement: a functioning software that has no utility but nevertheless exists.

The publication “Half Cheetah,” designed as a flip book, translates this infinite sequence into print and offers a deeper understanding of the project through a text by curator and critic Bronac Ferran () and a conversation between the artist and Mark Leckey (.leckey).

“Two days before the opening of the itinerant 2025 Kyiv Biennial at the Antwerp Museum of Contemporary Art (M HKA) in October, Flemish minister of culture Caroline Gennez, completely unexpectedly and apparently without consulting any of the parties concerned, unveiled an ambitious new plan entailing a radical reorganization of Flanders’s institutional ecosystem that, in just over two years’ time, aims to result in the closing of M HKA.” Read Dieter Roelstraete’s () opinion on the proposed closing of Antwerp’s M HKA at the link in bio.
