Slavs and Tatars - mouth to mouth / Mouth to mouth edited by Pablo Larios. - Köln : König Books, 2017. - 224 pages : illustrations (black and white, and colour) ; 32 cm

Published to accompany the exhibition of the same name held at Ujazdowski Castle Centre for Contemporary art, Warsaw, Nov 2016 - Feb 2017; Pejman Foundation, Tehran, Apr 2017; Salt Galata, Istanbul, Jun 2017; CAC Vilnius, Sep 2017; Museum of Contemporary Art, Belgrade, Nov 2017; and Albertinum, Dresden, Winter 2017 - 2018.

Defining an area 'east of the former Berlin Wall and west of the Great Wall of China' as their remit, Slavs and Tatars repeatedly creolise, craft and collide a political and imagined geography to topple our brittle notions of identity, language and beliefs. Throughout their 10 year practice, the artist collective has turned to Turkic language politics, medieval advice literature, the relationship between Iran and Poland and transliteration, to name but a few of their areas of research.
