Publications : Other : Vala T. Foltyn : Szwedzka 8

In this book, Vala T. Foltyn―artist, choreographer, and witch―weaves together ghosts and other presences that have passed through Szwedzka 8, a century-old villa in Kraków whose history is a testimony to queer love and resistance. A powerful meditation on silencing, loss, and mourning, Foltyn’s text takes the reader beyond the local to times and spaces of magic and transformation in a communing with the living and dead.

The book series Other is inconsistent through and through because it is never self-similar and invariably has different content: the publications unfold an artistic or curatiorial project, or images, ideas, and reveries, and thereby remain – in all their otherness – themselves.
