Published with the exhibition at the Galleria Nazionale d?Arte Moderna e Contemporanea in Rome, this book brings together history, art, and industry in a single object: the vase. The vase has been the subject and object of a narrative in which artists and designers have portrayed, photographed, and reinvented it. It has filled roles as both an art object, with its intrinsic value, and an industrial object with the same functions and no less artistic value. Curated by Spanish designer Martí Guixé, the exhibition offers an opportunity to reflect on the relationship between artisanship, design, and contemporary art, and compare visual languages that are more similar than we may think. 00Exhibition: Galleria Nazionale d?Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Rome, Italy (16.07.-29.09.2019).

In Transition Menu, the self-professed ex-designer Martí Guixé (born 1964) demonstrates how even food can be a design item. In this publication, Guixé presents his theories on food design by chronicling the fictional character, Mar López, who, over the course of her career, transitions from chef and restaurant owner to food designer. The book showcases a variety of elements of the fictional food designer including her CV, kitchen concepts and menu design, with color photographs of each of the food items on López's menu. Guixé describes how each component transcends a conventional approach to food to become a designer item. Each dish is presented in conjunction with a short essay that describes its modern look and functionality. Transition Menu expands upon Guixé's research on food design and includes his personal theories, thoughts and notes regarding the subject, by which he seeks to challenge and reappraise the parameters of conventional culinary habits.

In un'epoca in cui i rapporti diventano inesorabilmente virtuali e l'amicizia sembra un concetto da social network, con "Face to Face Book" Martí Guixé ci invita a ritrovarci fisicamente, seduti fronte a fronte. Per interagire, per guardarci in faccia, per disegnarci a vicenda. I libri di Martí Guixé non sono quasi mai soltanto libri: sono divertenti provocazioni, dialoghi giocosi con il lettore-disegnatore in cui il gioco diventa spunto di riflessione. Ancora una volta Martí Guixé ci invita a sperimentare senza rischi e a seguire le regole della nostra originalità, con un nuovo libro "da fare", divertente, ironico e leggero.

Nothing about Dutch graphic design duo Mevis & van Deursen conforms to type. Praised for their innovative but clear presentation, they have designed everything from artist's books for Gabriel Orozco and Rineke Dijkstra to an official government stamp commemorating the marriage of Dutch Crown Prince Willem-Alexander, based on the number two, since the wedding date was 02-02-02. This book represents a range of work from the past 15 years, mostly books but also posters and smaller pieces. However, the artists have chosen not simply to present the work again but to make it new through collage and reinterpretative interplay, thus "recycling" their innovative design.
