Commissioned by the Ellipse Foundation, a member of the FACE Association (Foundation of Arts for a Contemporary Europe), the Portuguese author Rui Cardoso Martins drew his inspiration from Franz Kafka's short story Investigations of a Dog (1922) to write Animal Stomach. This new short story also echoes the artworks, which are reproduced in the book, by the 36 international artists of the touring exhibition Investigations of a Dog organized by FACE in 2009 – 2011. Four other short stories – especially written for the project by Aristide Antonas, Jonas Hassen Khemiri, Emmanuelle Pagano, and Tiziano Scarpa – and an exhibition catalogue are published simultaneously. Rui Cardoso Martins is a Portuguese writer, and a reporter for the daily newspaper Publico, as well as a screenplay writer for film and television. He recently won the Grand Prize of Romance and Novel awarded by the Portuguese Association of Writers. Published with FACE (Foundation of Arts for a Contemporary Europe). Portuguese text.
