The Cracks in the Stone
挪石社最新出版:Sammy Stein 《The Cracks in the Stone》,石頭的裂縫。本書由Sammy一幅接一幅的小畫,與引人入勝的對話/獨白串連而成,引領讀者進入「另一邊的世界」。這世界超越了語言和想像的局限,連思考也太花時間了,脫下多餘的肉身,到達太虛之境。Sammy 擅畫岩石礦石晶石,彷彿能解讀石頭裂紋所隱藏的符碼。這些自上古遺留至今的物質憑證,正吻合了Sammy作品中貫徹追尋的,一個古老與未來共通,而人可感知的神秘世界。
本書於2024年12月敝社舉辦的One Table Art Book Fair 活動中首發,限量250本,法英雙語;並與Séverine Bascouert新書《Our Policeman》同步出版。
Sammy Stein’s The Cracks in the Stone tells tale with magical rocks and hypnotic narration, pointing at a path that leads to “a world on the other side”. Sammy pictures a world which has surpassed the limits of language and of imagination - it be a waste of time to think, and no need of a body - and arrives at the great cosmos. Sammy depicts the fine lines of the rocks and minerals as if he could decipher the secrets etched on the surface. These material evidence from remote ages that his works have been searching for, open door to a mystic but perceivable world where the ancient and future connect in one.
The book is published on the occasion of One Table Art Book Fair organized by nos:books in December 2024, in a limited edition of 250 copies. In French and English. Launched together with Our Policeman by Séverine Bascouert.
