Wien: Secession & Revolver Publishing, 2011. Large tall 4to in stiff wraps as issued. 80 pages illustrated with full page colour plates. Text at end in German and English. Fine copy with only minimal shelfwear. Openness, complexity, and difference, reality as a hybrid and dynamic construct: these are the hallmarks of a steadily growing corpus of works on which Inés Lombardi has been working since the late 1980s. Through endless variations and concatenations in a variety of media including photography and video as well as installations and objects, the artist demonstrates how complex human perception is. Space plays a significant role in the artist's presentation of her works, which perpetually call for new contexts and settings that endow them with new meaning. The new series Past Present Close and Distant, which Inés Lombardi developed for her exhibition at the Secession, continues this process. In questioning the relationship of the garden, surrounding landscape, and architecture at Residência Olivo Gomes and the Fazenda Vargem Grande, two gardens by the Brazilian landscape architect and painter Roberto Burle Marx, the artist examines the relationship between past and present and addresses questions of identity and diversity. Further aspects of her investigation concern the Self and the Other and the appropriation of the unknown, nature as a construct, modernity in Brazil, and the formation of national identities. Her research covers the writings of travelers and explorers, the Romantic naturalism of the nineteenth century, and our own complex relationships to this part of our history. By publishing a hybrid text, Inés Lombardi offers a magisterial solution for expanding the exhibition concept, which she has opened up to encompass book format. Weaving together statements from her artist, architect, and theorist friends about their personal impressions of the images the artist sent to them, she has created a text collage that forms a new ensemble from the sum of its parts. The result is open and complex and as dynamic as all of the artist's works.

Persephone Books, 2002. 556 pp. Light edgewear but clean and overall well preserved. Written in 1936-7 by a young Austrian playwright living in exile in London, Manja opens, radically, with five conception scenes all set on the same night in 1920. In the midst of the turbulent Germany of the Weimar Republic, it goes on, equally dramatically, to describe the lives of the children and their families up until 1933 when the Nazis came to power. The four boys and one girl, Manja, become friends, but their companionship is doomed because of the differences between their parents; one father is a left-wing activist, another a Nazi, another a financier, another a Jewish musician. Yet Manja is far from being a political novel. Its startling originality lies in the way the the political background is perceived, steadily, from the child's point of view. We have all read about Germany in the 1930s from the historian's angle; there is, however, no novel we know of which sees German life during the period from the end of the First World War until 1933 in quite this clear-sighted way. 'What is so unusual,' wrote the playwright Berthold Viertel in 1938, 'is the way the novel contrasts the children's community - in all its idealism, romanticism, decency and enchantment - with the madhouse community of the adults.' Like The Priory, Manja was first published in English in September 1939: a reader 'spent seven nights totally beguiled and shocked by your clever juxtaposition of the two books.' The Preface is by the author's daughter, writer Eva Ibbotson; the new translation is by Kate Phillips.
