TICKET TO THE UNKNOWN
Book, published by Future Plan and Program
2011
Ticket to the Unknown considers the texts of the Swiss Art Brut artist, Aloise Corbaz. Best known for her drawings and only recently for her writing, Ticket is the first publication of Aloïse’s texts translated to English, from the original French. Valentine’s original essays, which accompany the translations, consider the dilemmas of reading and translating artists’ writing, explore the limits of modes of expression, and engage the corporeality of text itself.
