X was a one-year, experimental non-profit initiative, whose goal was to inspire new ideas for producing and experiencing contemporary art. It ran the gamut from solo shows by international stars like Hans Haacke to a 24-hour Bring Your Own Art (BYOA) marathon event. This sourcebook surveys one dense year of art at 548 West 22nd Street.

I'm Not There: New Art from Asia

Edited by Cecilia Alemani.
Published by The Gwangju Biennale Foundation

I'm Not There: New Art from Asia is a new sourcebook of contemporary art east of the Ural Mountains, looking at artists from Afghanistan to Japan. More than 80 contributors have proposed names of emerging artists and influential figures whose work has been overlooked in their own countries. The results are presented here as part of the research process for the eighth Gwangju Biennale, curated by Massimiliano Gioni. Among the contributors are curators, critics, scholars, philosophers, editors and artists including Hou Hanru, Yukie Kamiya, Geeta Kapur, Raqs Media Collective, Alvaro Rodriguez Fominaya, Yuliya Sorokina and Shengtian Zheng.

Collecting Contemporary Art

Edited by Andrea Bellini, Lillian Davies, Cecilia Alemani.
Published by JRP|Ringier

For the collector of contemporary art, the acquisition of new work is an aesthetic and intellectual adventure that records a personal journey and cuts a unique cross-section through the culture. Consequently every collector has a different story to tell about art and the art market today. The world of the collector overlaps with that of the artist but is also a realm of stratospheric prices, occasional plunges in value and gestures of bold speculation. As a public figure and commentator, the collector has regained a prominence and a spotlight role little seen in earlier decades, and Collecting Contemporary Art has been assembled to address the emergence of the twenty-first century collector. Published in JRP|Ringier's superb Hapax series, this volume gathers interviews with 40 collectors from Europe, the Americas and Asia, among them Renato Alpegiani, Blake Byrne, Teresa Sapey, Tian Jun, Uli Sigg, David Roberts and Ivo Wessel.
