Edition Zip is an interdisciplinary publishing platform bringing together literature with other art forms and vice versa.

The selected texts are pictorial, poetic and narrative at the same time. In addition, experiencing the books enables a journey not only into written stories but also into its imagery and embodiment. A book could therefore also be a performative or audiovisual encounter of the story as well as the other way around: films, dance and music can be translated into printed works. Edition Zip perceives every art form as an inspiration for adaption and transfer – an ongoing dynamic process within the arts. The geographic focus of each edition reaches out to readers interested in social, political and multicultural contexts. Edition Zip publishes in original language and English or German translation in order to bring those narratives across geographic borders.
