SAINT LAURENT EDITIONS PRESENTS DON’T FORGET TO FORGET TO BREATHE BY TIONA NEKKIA MCCLODDEN IN ART EDITION.
FOLLOWING THE PUBLICATION OF THE REGULAR EDITION OF TIONA NEKKIA MCCLODDEN’S BOOK, RELEASED ON THE OCCASION OF ART BASEL, SAINT LAURENT EDITION OFFERS TWO EXCLUSIVE EDITIONS, A LIMITED AND AN ART EDITION.
THE ART EDITION IS DISTINGUISHED BY THREE ELEMENTS, THE LAST OF WHICH IN PARTICULAR PROPELS THE EDITION TO THE LEVEL OF A WORK OF ART. THE EDITION IS MANUFACTURED BY THE ARTIST HERSELF: THE COVER, MADE OF SAINT LAURENT MASOIL LEATHER, IS HAND-DYED, BOUND, AND EMBOSSED BY THE ARTIST. IN ADDITION, A LEATHER STRAP SURROUNDS THE BOOK. STRAPS OF THIS TYPE ARE ORIGINAL WORKS OF ART IN THEMSELVES IN TIONA'S PRACTICE. A 7.5 M (25 FEET) HAND-DYED JUTE ROPE ALSO SURROUNDS THE COVER. ROPE, WHICH COMES FROM THE WORLD OF BONDAGE, IS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT IN TIONA NEKKIA MCCLODDEN'S ARTISTIC PRACTICE, PARTICULARLY IN THE "NEVER LET LE GO" SERIES OF PAINTINGS. THESE ROPES ARE AVAILABLE ONLY IN THE ART EDITION, WHICH IS PRODUCED IN THREE COPIES NUMBERED FROM 1 TO 3.
THE BOOK 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 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.
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.
