Aphrodite A is a collection of 8 books, designed and packaged by Marta Dell’Angelo.
The books are published on the occasion of the finissage of Marta Dell’Angelo’s solo exhibition AFRODITE A, which occupied the three floors of Assab One from the end of May to the beginning of September 2019, with new and site-specific works and re-interpretations of previous projects and installations.

Titles like file extensions refer to different expressions of the author’s work. The extension of a file, in the computer field, is a suffix, i.e. a short sequence of alphanumeric characters placed at the end of the name of a file and separated from the previous part by a dot, through which the operating system can distinguish the type of content (text, music, image, video…) and the format used and open it with the corresponding application.
