Story
The days when museums were dusty, stuffy institutions displaying their wealth and wisdom to a reverential public are over. Museums today are a cultural battleground. Who should decide what is put on display and how it is presented? Who gets to set the narrative? In this passionately argued book, Jon Sleigh maintains that museums must be for all people and inclusion must be at the heart of everything they do.

Story
Amidst the waking nightmares of today, the solace of goth looms from behind the shadows to soothe our morbid anxieties. Permeating pop culture at every level - fashion, music, film, beauty - what was once the preserve of the hooded misfit, has now seeped into the mainstream. Which can only mean one thing: must be the season of the witch. To further inspire and illuminate the darkness, interspersed throughout we hear from notable goths and goth coded people like Anjelica Huston, Aryuna Tardis, Christina Ricci, Michèle Lamy, and Simone Rocha on what this eldritch culture means to them.

Story
Uma coisa por outra é uma experiência de escuta que tem como ponto de partida doze obras de Carlito Carvalhosa. Convidamos artistas, curadores, pesquisadores e críticos próximos a seu trabalho a audiodescrever uma obra e falar a partir dela – como ela lhe toca, em que contexto foi criada, quais histórias carrega. Ao substituir a experiência visual pelo uso das palavras faladas, esse exercício, que existe nas bordas entre o documental e o imaginativo, provoca um inédito estado de percepção para quem descreve a obra e também para quem escuta.
