Presentation by Origini Edizioni:

" Movement of body in dance here becomes the ritual with which we try to overcome the gravitational pull: dance is a representation of the myth of flight, of lightness. And this continuous physical struggle of the mass against the attractive force of the ground, of the artist against the tireless search for answers, is the very soul of movement.

This book is itself a paper representation of movement: it is a diaphragm, a rhythm of breathing: a very long Concertina [in its "Collector's Edition" version] that through the body of Dominique Mercy whispers « dance, dance, otherwise we are lost » [Pina Bausch]. "

We are offering here copies of the "trade edition" only, which is thread-bound, with several gatefolds. Only the "Collector's Edition" mentioned in the presentation above is produced as a Concertina-fold or Leporello. This book includes a thrown-in sheet of texts and a photography placed in a glassine enveloppe. Texts in English and French.

A full presentation of the Leporello of the "Collector's Edition" is available on Damien Daufresne's website.

PLEASE NOTE: The books published by Origini Edizioni are handmade; they can show some minor imperfections related to the artisanal production.

    Presentation by Origini edizioni: " Before realizing Dede's geographical origin, her images had spoken to us, suggesting the title and conceptual apparatus they needed. We have seen the fulfillment of Anaximander's Ápeiron, of the indefinite infinity of a pre-mythical time, where everything is primordial matter and fluidity. A true expression of the...

Presentation by Origini Edizioni: " The skin does not lie: it's a person's age map; it's the paper where their choices, failures, passions, fears are written on.

  • Presentation by Origini Edizioni: " The book is an album that shows two different ways to interpret the photography media. One as dramatic and Romantic (Valentino Barachini), the other as the search of beauty and graphic virtuosity (Cristiano Guerri). These two visions dialogue without words, then transforming each photo into a poster: the photobook,...
