DETAILS

Saint Laurent Editions presents DON’T FORGET TO FORGET TO BREATHE by Tiona Nekkia McClodden.

This publication continues the ongoing collaboration between Saint Laurent and Kunsthalle Basel, with Anthony Vaccarello spotlighting the work of Philadelphia-based artist Tiona Nekkia McClodden.

It explores McClodden’s interdisciplinary approach through images of recent installations and artworks featured in her 2023 exhibition, THE POETICS OF BEAUTY WILL INEVITABLY RESORT TO THE MOST BASE PLEADING AND OTHER WILDES IN ORDER TO SECURE ITS RELEASE, staged at Kunsthalle Basel.

“Like A Choke Valve”, a comprehensive analytical essay by former Kunsthalle Basel Director (now Director of Kunstmuseum Basel), Elena Filipovic, further contextualizes McClodden’s work and her evolving relationship with airflows after being diagnosed with sleep apnea.

BOOK specificities:

The book visually evolves across its pages echoing the rhythms of breathing: INHALE/EXHALE. It reflects McClodden’s multifaceted approach by combining elements of a hardcover book, an exhibition catalogue and an artwork.

The book is divided in two parts: the first one reflects the two video artworks that were exhibited in the show, thanks to two flipbook-like narratives. The Second part shows the artwork through a walk-thru style inspired narrative & layout, echoing also a performance given by the artist, that was part of the exhibition.

A tactile, layered experience is created by the Japanese-style binding in the first part of the book.
An exclusive essay by Elena Filipovic, former Kunsthalle Basel Director - now Director of Kunstmuseum Basel analyses the artist’s stances in the exhibition, articulating the work and our contemporary culture and positions.
Further commentary by the artist herself gives an additional analytical input.
The book has been thought and conceived closely together with the artist to be a unique object designed to align with the artist's distinctive creative DNA and reflect the exhibition and McClodden’s practice.
THREE VERSIONS OF THE BOOK ARE AVAILABLE
REGULAR EDITION - A handmade, embossed faux-leather cover with custom-made construction.
LIMITED EDITION (to be published in September 2025 to coincide with the exhibition at RIVE DROITE PARIS)- Hand-painted, bound, and embossed Saint Laurent Masoil leather hides, crafted by the artist herself.
ART EDITION (to be published in September 2025 to coincide with the exhibition at RIVE DROITE PARIS) - Three books in existence. Hand-painted, bound, and embossed Saint Laurent Masoil leather hides, crafted by the artist herself. A leather strap, one of the artist's original works, encircles the book. Three such straps were part of the artwork, with one allocated to each book and bound with 25 feet of hand dyed jute rope.
