Manifold Books warmly invites you to the opening (17 June, 2023) of Feeling Four, a solo exhibition by Marianna Maruyama (DAI, 2014). Responding to Manifold Books' evocative attic space, the artist has installed a kaleidoscopic mural of insect-eaten volumes and artfully damaged sculptures. A subtle scent of vanilla, dry tobacco and leather linger in the background; the characteristic old book smell. In the accompanying publication, Marianna will introduce you to Rome's national archives, a continuation of her search for termites in the Italian capital's cultural heritage sites which she began in 2020. She makes a pilgrimage to what might have been the tomb of Severus in a Roman suburb, and meets entomologists in Bologna, but, if we want to come closer to feeling four, she suggests, we need to look even further back to the Etruscans.

In the past two months, Miyoung Chang (DAI, 2022) and Dakota Guo (DAI, 2022), Benjamin Francis, and Clara Saito (DAI, 2019) have been further developing their performances, and it is with great pleasure that If I Can't Dance can now invite you to visit their online works in the If I Can’t Dance Studio, and their on-site presentations on Saturday 17 June in the space Pre-Reserved in Amsterdam Noord. Clara Saito presents the work Theater of Drag: Action, Healing and Telenovela for which she has been collaborating with members of the collective Papaya Kuir, developing allegorical characters (and a game) drawing on personal experiences and on the power dynamic between Europe and Latin America; Benjamin Francis presents the work Control It – Delete It in which he explores methods of pedagogy and actively involves participants in a cleansing ritual; and the two daredevil friends Miyoung Chang and Dakota Guo present Chu Renmei and Hye-Joo for which they have been studying the mechanics of the cinematic apparatus in East Asian horror film-making.

Casco Art Institute: Working for the Commons would like to warmly invite you to a gathering to celebrate and discuss the book 'Enfleshed: Ecologies of Entities and Beings'. Evolving from the multifaceted research exhibition Enfleshed–Elaborated initiated by Amsterdam based Finnish artist Kristiina Koskentola (DAI, 2007), the publication, co-edited with Maastricht based Dutch artist curator Marjolein van der Loo and published by Onomatopee, explores multispecies ecologies from an Eurasian perspective. Nice to see so many good "old" former & recent guests/tutors of DAI brought together here in perfectly fitting ways in and around the publication: German Popov, Müge Yilmaz, Nikolay Smirnov, Rick Dolphijn and of course Mi You.10 June 2023, 14:00–17:00 at Casco's HQ
