Realized on the occasion of the project Twelve, wood, dolphin, knife, bowl, mask, crystal, bones and marble - fusion. Exploring materials at the Collezione Maramotti (17 February - 31 July 2013), this artist’s book is consigned in visitors’ hands as a map of the exhibition, but not only. Antufiev writes in the book preface: “Even when the exhibition will be closed I hope it does not lose its actuality because this book is an artefact. It's part of me, of my life. Reading this book is not easy and I am sorry for that: I thank all those who wish to do that. Do not focus on a single text because each text is connected with others and makes sense in this relationship. I made a small scheme that can help you to relate them. I added some notes in the book to clarify words and concepts to people who do not live in my country.”

The volume includes a number of images: Antufiev’s artworks selection, photographs taken by the artist, pictures accompanying the texts.
