The third in a trilogy of Mad Marginal books that corresponds to a trilogy of works, dealing with the issue of marginality as artistic position and the notion of "outsider art." If in the first cahier the focus was on how the antipsychiatric movement, especially in Trieste, triggered different artistic and political positions in Europe and South America (featuring authors such as Peter Pàl Pelbart and Franco Rotelli), the second cahier dealt mainly with more formal aspects of visual arts and literature in relation to the notion of margin (with authors such as Cesare Pietroiusti, François Piron, Pierre Bal-Blanc). This third MM#3, KLAU MICH (this name is taken from an episode of the Berlin student revolution in the 1960s, meaning: grab me, catch me, arrest me) is a celebration of freedom in the arts, or, the impossibility, in spite of everything, of censorship. The book will be produced in parallel to Garcia's project for DOCUMENTA (13) and will use images of the project. Historical texts and commissioned texts, some of them by the artist, and texts generated during the project ( letters, comments of the participants, transcripts of conversations) will comprise the contents. With fragments of texts from two historical books, the original "Klau Mich" and "Die Unfähigkeit zu trauern: Grundlagen kollektiven Verhaltens."
