A publishing house aspiring to weave a dialogue between images and words.

It now oversees the EpOx et BoTOx entity, maintaining its positioning regarding the printing and production method of the works (silkscreened from start to finish, and crafted by hand).

The urgency to claim more than just eccentricity or graphic singularity, to be more than an atypical and marginal niche, is becoming pressing: EpOx et BoTOx is not disappearing; it is merging into the heart of La Main Qui Cale as a collection that keeps its own catalog and will host future artist books with more sporadic releases than up until 2023. La Main Qui Cale, for its part, will publish all other forms of works (from annual or biennial journals (depending on the mood) to monographs) that can intertwine images with short stories, pamphlets, poems, essays, or cries—but never the last one.

FORTHCOMING: “Eine Kleine Schneck Musik” – Antoine Bernhart

Jul 3, 2026 | Editions

The very latest Imposte from January/February 2026 (which did not result in any emails being sent –Mea Culpa) mentioned a publication due out in spring, namely
“Eine Kleine Schneck Musik”:
a monograph by Antoine Bernhart, presented by Jérôme Duwa.

… And what would publishing be without a little delay extension, huh?!!

The silkscreen printing is complete, as the images below will attest… With binding over the summer, the first copies will be ready from September (for pre-order shipments). A ‘tour’ to mark its official release is planned for October

► PRE-ORDER - "Eine Kleine Schneck Musik"

A few words from Jérôme Duwa:

“These various stagings of cruelty in this series of drawings that refuse to become images, but instead constitute ‘anti-images’ (G. Anders), pierce our daily lives with a violence all the more necessary as we cultivate willful blindness. “
(excerpt from the presentation “Libre jeu d’Antoine Bernhart” from the book *Eine Kleine Schneck Musik*)
