<p>Evincing a philosophical theme about the function of place in the modern world, a collection of sophisticated art images is organized to reflect a variety of attitudes and practices on a city street, in the wilds of nature, in spaces that reflect the imagination, and in other locales.

The book of: JG is a sequel in technique to FILM, Dean's 2011 project for Tate Modern's Turbine Hall. It is inspired by her correspondence with British author J.G. Ballard (1930-2009) regarding connections between his short story "The Voices of Time" (1960) and Robert Smithson's iconic earthwork and film Spiral Jetty (both works, 1970).

<p>British-European artist Tacita Dean has a wide-ranging practice that includes drawings, photographs, installations, and collections of found objects and images, but she is best known for her use of film, and her advocacy for its preservation as an artistic medium. This year, Dean has presented three major exhibitions in London around the themes of landscape, portraiture and still life. This present exhibition complements these, but is distinct from them, exploring the artist's approaches to theatre, performance and narrative. In the context of Edinburgh's festivals, the work in this exhibition speaks to the vitality of the performing arts in the city over the summer months.</p>

French conceptual artist Saâdane Afif has gathered hundreds of postcards picturing fountains, thereby constructing an almost daily history of the year 1917. With the development in the early 20th century of mechanical pumps and indoor plumbing, even the most provincial European town could boast a fountain that was no longer functional but purely decorative. Afif connects these advancements to parallel progress in photography and its reproduction, as well as the expansion of the postal service. Altogether, the book with its fascinating mementos of correspondence becomes a keen reflection on the initial stages of globalisation as we know it today. With a text by Tacita Dean.
