Artbooks Vuoti A Rendere International Edition is a Paris based independent publisher founded in 2012 specialising in art and photo books and exploring the relationship between texts and images. With thoughtful stylistic choices, accurate studies on contents and a particular attention to the quality of subjects and materials, Avarie's publications reflect a concept that sees the book as a
jamming incident in the system: a privileged moment of thought and a space of creation that results from a close collaboration with the artist and lies at the outskirts of commercial production. Vuoti A Rendere is an Italian expression to indicate containers, generally bottles, that need to be returned to the vendor according to a clause that not only asks for their return, but also requires a cash deposit from the buyer. Like the tramps who wander the streets of Berlin with no other belongings than those empty bottles they can return in exchange for a few coins for survival, Avarie takes an interest in the artistic process as a form of restitution and resistance by something that disappears or emerges and continues to emerge. The books that are created and proposed by Avarie are conceived like a last trace of an emptiness that continues revealing itself in the shape of a form.
