AQ publishing house

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The AQ-Verlag was created in 1970 by the publication of the magazine AQ - situations of contemporary art and literature (originally a student magazine called anti-quarium that the artist group workshop Koop was one). The place of publication was initially Dudweiler and is now Saarbrücken .

history

With changing themes from art and literature, AQ brought out some unknown artists for the first time in Germany. These include John Baldessari , Christian Boltanski , Hans-Peter Feldmann , Jean Le Gac , Jochen Gerz , Paul-Armand Gette , Edmund Kuppel , Anthony McCall and David Tremlett . Special issues were devoted to Cut-up (1973) and Fluxus (1977). In 2011 a documentary about Fluxus in Nice was added.

Books were created with these and other artists and authors such as Martin Disler , Helmut Federle , Jörg Janzer , Urs Lüthi , Till Neu and Reinhard P. Gruber .

Rainer Maria Rilke's Duineser Elegien and the Sonnets to Orpheus were published in a recitation by Irene Laett (on CD and as an audio book).

In 2017 the translation of (fictional) letters of reply to Rilke from Agnès Rouzier will be published : Letters to a dead poet and the 'answer' to this text by Till Neu : "Seven images for Agnès Rouzier / Sept images pour Agnès Rouzier" in a bilingual edition, and in 2018 the translation of her text 'No, nothing' (Non, rien). Her correspondence 'Lettres à un Jeune Allemand' will appear in French in 2018. The 'Diary I & II' from 1977 to 1981 will follow in 2019.

Two programs on SR 2 KulturRadioLiterature in Conversation ” by Ralph Schock with Erwin Stegentritt were produced in 2004 and 2016 as audiobooks on CD.

The publisher also publishes scientific series on topics in linguistics and computational linguistics as well as German studies (“Bibliotheca Germanica - Series Nova”) and Nordic studies (“Linguistica Septentrionalia”). The new edition (completed in 2019) of the Old Icelandic Dictionary by Jón Thorkelsson (first edition 1876) is published by Hans Fix , formerly the Nordic Institute of the University of Greifswald . In addition, collections of letters by the linguists Paul Herrmann and Gustaf Cederschiöld were published.
