Join independent arts publisher Montez Press for a showcase evening of two of our latest releases: Pay It Forward by SoiL Thornton and Prepositions by Timmy Simonds and Aaron Lehman. Come and celebrate with a night of performances and readings by CAConrad and the authors, as part of their European debut tour.
Pay It Forward presents three different materials alongside each other as a way of interrogating the underlying conditions of the exhibition, presentation and representation of artistic production. Edited by Nadine Droste, it follows Thornton’s first European solo exhibition 'Decomposition Evaluation' at Kunstverein Bielefeld, Germany.
Prepositions enacts the distinction between what language says and what it does. Through a catalogue of exercises, interviews, essays and creative explorations, this workbook-compendium invites us to investigate how we practise empathy, understanding, and contact, by learning and teaching all at once.
Montez Press has established itself as a vital contributor to artist-led publishing over the last decade, foregrounding and queering experimental auto, fan and speculative fiction. They are committed to publishing artists' writing including novels, periodicals, digital publishing and monographs. Their programme advances the relationship between artistic practice and queer and feminist politics, creating a platform of support for unexpected creators within the artistic landscape. Montez Press facilitates process-driven publications and the sustained development of artists' work.
