Documenta 13's Artistic Director Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev has proposed the 2012 festival as a refusal of conceptual unity, instead \"choreographing many different kinds of materials, methodologies and forms of knowledge.\" Responding to the political and economic uncertainty of our times, Christov-Bakargiev declares that \"Documenta must aspire, by contrast, to instead exercise imagination as a space of accuracy in which to practice and challenge our definition of the political.\" \u003ci\u003eThe Book of Books\u003c\/i\u003e reproduces the entire \u003ci\u003e100 Notes-100 Thoughts\u003c\/i\u003e series of publications (either as facsimiles or with entirely new layouts), and is supplemented by essays from Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, Chus Martínez, Franco Berardi and others, plus statements by some of the festival's agents and advisors. Illustrated short biographies of all participating artists are included, along with a catalogue of the works on display.","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag GmbH \u0026 Co KG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47060521976048,"sku":"9783775729512","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783775729512_p0.jpg?v=1763682954","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783775729512","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
