The jury – composed of Emma Enderby, Director, KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin (Germany); Arturo Galansino, General Director, Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi, Florence (Italy); Giovanni Morale, Deputy Director, Gallerie d’Italia – Milan, Milan (Italy) – has selected 10 works this year, among which this painting by Tobias Just.

In many ways, the story of Mimi Lauter’s practice over the last decade and a half is the story of color’s irrepressible ascendance as it came to eclipse narrative, representation, and even form itself with the brute power of its wavelength vibrancy. Color is the protagonist. Color is a force. Color is explosive.

“NOTIZIE DA LEI, E CHE NOTIZIE!” di Vittoria Caprotti

The first monograph celebrating the 60-year career of groundbreaking Los Angeles ceramic artist Michael Frimkess. The book’s design is methodically and irrreverently set to jazz—Dizzy Gillespie’s 1953 song “Groovin’ High”.

The documentation of the exhibition “Post Scriptum. A museum forgotten by heart” avoids the conventions and structure of a traditional catalogue, instead taking the form of a hybrid editorial object composed of images only. Art director and stylist Francesca Cefis has been invited to implement a project based on the editorial language of fashion, utilizing the exhibition and the museum as a starting point. The result is two catalogues, from the perspective of two different authors, photographers Alassan Diawara and Lukas Wassmann, produced in collaboration with Adidas Originals and Emporio Armani.

The new IDEA book is RISK by Buck Ellison. It is an art book. It looks like an IDEA book. But don’t be fooled. The photographs are styled to match the imagery of a bank advertisement or lifestyle catalogue. They are painstakingly staged representations of wealth and privilege. They are so pitch-perfect as to become inseparable from their target.

Post Scriptum. A museum forgotten by heart (4 October 2024 – 16 February 2025) is the exhibition at MACRO – Museo d’Arte Contemporanea di Roma to conclude the five years of programming of the project Museum for Preventive Imagination curated by Luca Lo Pinto.
