Editions

FRMK is an annual print magazine published in Athens since 2013, operating as a shared field for poetry, theory and visual arts. It presents contemporary Greek poetry alongside translations of international work, often appearing in Greek for the first time, while treating the visual section as an autonomous exhibition in print. Over more than a decade of continuous publication, FRMK has brought together hundreds of poets, translators, visual artists and essayists, sustaining a long-term dialogue across disciplines. The magazine functions as both an archive and a living platform for experimentation, public encounters and collective editorial practice.

What Asger Jorn [Un]Taught Me is a bilingual pamphlet published by FRMK Editions, conceived as a sequence of eleven positions rather than a historical or interpretive study. Drawing on Jorn’s writing and gestures, the text operates through montage, displacement and strategic exaggeration to address the figure of the artist within an economized and symmetrical world. Theory appears as performance, and citation as sabotage. The publication functions as a compact manual of artistic conduct under conditions of normalization, productivity and managed dissent.

Homo Camcordus is a short book published by FRMK Editions that moves between theoretical essay and narrative fiction. Written as a manual of recording, it examines the compulsion to document life and the ethical, emotional and political residues this compulsion leaves behind. Through fragmented scenes, technical language and intimate testimony, the text follows a figure shaped by cameras, archives and delayed experience. The publication operates as a critical portrait of the recording subject and as a quiet elegy for presence, friendship and loss.

Threshold is a collaborative book by Katerina Iliopoulou and Yiannis Isidorou, where poetic text and photographic sequences form a single spatial and temporal structure. The work unfolds around the notion of the threshold as a site of passage, hesitation and exposure, treating language and image as parallel modes of orientation. Photography does not illustrate the text, nor does the text explain the images; both operate as coexistent fields of experience. The publication functions as a sustained meditation on interiority, memory and movement across states of presence.

NICE is an exhibition catalogue edited by Yiannis Isidorou and Yiannis Grigoriadis under the name Salon de Vortex, conceived in parallel with the exhibition of the same title. The publication treats curating as an active position, assembling works and texts through tension, proximity and conceptual friction. Rather than documenting an event, the catalogue extends it, functioning as a critical space where artistic gestures remain unresolved and in circulation. The book operates as an editorial field shaped by risk, adjacency and deliberate incompleteness.

Dreambook for the Future of Governance is the author’s first standalone book, published by FRMK Editions in 2015. Written as a speculative dream lexicon, the book treats dreams as instruments of political reading, combining philosophy, satire and conceptual writing. Drawing on figures ranging from Machiavelli to modern political theory, it stages interpretation as a practice of power, anticipation and misrecognition. The publication operates simultaneously as parody, critical tool and poetic manual for navigating contemporary governance.

Catalogue of the multimodal installation Karaoke Poetry Bar, developed by intothepill and presented as part of the 1st Athens Biennial. Combining poetry, performance, video and collective participation, the publication functioned as both score and operational tool for a temporary public situation where recitation became exposure, risk and appropriation. Poetry was displaced from reading into action, dissolving authorship and spectatorship through shared use of voice, body and space. A foundational gesture that reintroduced poetry to the Athenian scene as a lived situation, anticipating the editorial and performative logic later developed in FRMK.

An early artist-run platform operating between theory, video, poetry and networked publishing.
This first printed catalogue documents intothepill as a working condition rather than a closed project.
Texts, images and fragments function as traces of an experimental ecology shaped online and offline.
A foundational artifact of a platform that treated publishing as action, circulation and risk.
