Mass employment inside personal identity encryption, computer face recognition and demographic marketing industries has given rise to a society of individuals frozen in emotional responses. Trapped inside a population riddled with autistic spectrum and dementia-like symptoms this dark tale tracks an unusual encounter between a man and woman trying to preserve the final strands of their own emotional interiors and hoping to trigger human empathetic responses needed for human survival inside a robotic vacuum of state surveillance and personal identity destruction.

“Ellipsis after Closure” is a 2020 Werkplaats Typografie End of the Year Show in book form by Nicha Keeratiphanthawong and Tabea Nixdorff, with mended hole contributions submitted by participants who took part in hole mending meditation workshops in 2020.

Following endless digital threads of information and being in constant touch with ‘hardware,’ it is easy to forget one’s bodily presence and situatedness. Weavings, just like computer coding, are complex automated nettings. Only the point of rupture—a dropped stitch, like a bug in the code, a systemic error—redirects the attention outside of the machine by requesting a manual intervention.

The book is printed with white ink on black paper, and stitched on a Singer sewing machine.

Andrea: “In early 2018, I came back home with a book titled Flower Arranging, an illustrated home reference manual about floral decoration dated 1966. The book was printed in Holland, yet published almost simultaneously in Des Moines (1965) and Glasgow (1966). The volume appeared to be sold in a no-longer existing bookshop in Johannesburg, between Pritchard and Loveday Streets, and eventually travelled back to the Netherlands, where I found it in a charity shop not too far from my house.

‘Nobody Remembers a Shapeshifter’ is simultaneously the title of a fashion show, the password to enter the show’s venue, and the title of this book. The fashion show that lacked a fashion collection served as an exhibition context for the participants of the Werkplaats Typografie. Each participant contributed to the expanded format of the fashion show, creating work that existed specifically within the support structure: from online platforms to wayfinding on the street, from coordinated services to spatial interventions, from the ferry dock to the catwalk.

This publication is an extension of the show, a premeditated afterthought expanding on the collective gesture and individual efforts of Andrea Salerno, Austin Redman, Darío Dezfuli, Frédérique Gagnon, Gerardo Madera, Hannah Sakai, Jannete Mark, Loes Claessens, Maria Smit, Mariana Lobão, Michelle Lin, Michiel Terpelle, Mirjam Reili, Miron Galić, Moriz Oberberger, Nicha Keeratiphanthawong, Rebecca Metzger, Sangah Shin, Sarah Cleeremans, Simona Koutná, Susan van Veen and Tabea Nixdorff.

Six years in the making, BLOOD is the first comprehensive English translation of the poems of Danish art historian, communist activist and writer R. Broby-Johansen. Translated, edited and designed by Line-Gry Hørup, Broby-Johansen’s poems are accompanied by a series of full colour photographs by Amsterdam photographer Johannes Schwartz, which document the pair’s trip to Brody-Johansen’s recently established archive. So recent, that they were in fact the first to view it. BLOOD is published by Kunstverein Publishing and made possible with the support of Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie and the Danish Arts Foundation.

“Fehler lesen. Korrektur als Textproduktion” is an essay on textual errors and a personal quest to find them. Misprints demonstrate the vulnerability of a text. Here we catch a glimpse of the pre- and post-production phases, work that is to a large extent invisible. Thus, the juxtapositions of words that are printed and those that are intended (errata) reveal far more than a simple genealogy of wrong vs. right: they document vestiges of the work done in the shadows, the wrestling with language. Displacements, reconstructions, and lacunae become visible. In her essay Tabea tracks the social, linguistic, media, and poetic dimensions produced by correction and textual criticism. Who does the correcting and what traces does this mostly invisible work leave behind? What shifts in meaning do mistakes trigger? To what extent does the medium play a part in authoring the text. “Fehler lesen. Korrektur als Textproduktion” appears as part of the Applied Publishing Studies series.If you are in the market for superclone Replica Rolex , Super Clone Rolex is the place to go!

In August 2015, photographer Rebecca Fertinel was invited by her friend Tracy Tansia for a wedding. 
In this way, Fertinel became acquainted with the warm, impudent attitude of life of the Congolese community in 
Belgium and with the Bantu concept of Ubuntu: that you only become human through a connection with everything and everyone. With additional text by Hans Theys.

This book was inspired by ancient rituals that used obsidian mirrors as a method to predict the future.
Made and printed in Mexico City.

This reader culminates a year of activity under the umbrella of WT Speelplaats.

As the custodians of year 19, — Adriaan Van Leuven and Oliver Boulton — proposed a way of working through imitation. Be it a method, model or base; by adopting the action(s) of someone or something. Imitation, not so much in the aspect of ‘copying’, but in the idea of chewing, digesting and regurgitating an existing thing. Imitation, as something we do naturally, as a pedagogy; a process of learning. Imitation, as a coming inhale, exhale. Imitation as a means to reflect, detangle and recognise our surroundings, times, contemporaries, idols. Imitation as a way to embrace or confront one’s swamped reference pool. Imitation, as an open question, put to ourselves and our colleagues: how do you find your voice? At which point Kathy Acker yelled back at us: “Why [do] I have to find my own voice and where [is] it?”

This is the second iteration of a series of very large drawings translated into three different formats; a book, a sweater and a mural. It’s the outcome of personal observations and stereotypical representations of the ordinary daily life in Mexico. It was first drawn on a sheet of paper, then, resized and decomposed into a book. After that a detail was taken out for the sweaters and it was reunited again for the mural. Enlarging the drawing into a super size is a method that aims to unveil the truth between the stereotypes and reality, similar to a magnifying glass that allows us to discover the truthful nature of the object we are looking at.

Eigengrau  2015 – 2017, an ongoing study of the positive afterimage and its effects.
The phenomenon of the positive afterimage is created when a person, standing in dark room, experiences a sudden and short flash of light. This results in a ‘positive’ afterimage of whatever the person was looking at at the time the flash went off. This image is ephemeral in the sense that it dissipates within seconds of being created but at the same it creates a memory, we can relive that image only in our minds. Every afterimage is unique and can’t be captured by any form or technique we have available at the time. Studying this afterimage therefore becomes an exercise in studying its effects, its lingering traces on the people that experienced them.

Online contact has been re-established with a disappeared location scout who mysteriously vanished in late 2001 during an eight-day film location visit to an abandoned site in the Hoge Veluwe—an isolated woodland area in the province of Gelderland, The Netherlands. Using fragments of archived interviews an amateur music journalist reconstructs the specific events that took place that fateful day.

This book is based on the conversations carried out by a group of eight people with different backgrounds while driving from the Werkplaats Typografie Arnhem, The Netherlands, to Venice, Italy. The conversations were initiated and conducted to observe the evolution of a narrative through time and space, according to give conditions and random factors. The intention is to test the boundaries of language, and to foreground the peculiarities of communication through observations and perception of the WT participants.

‘If magic is sometimes very close to nothing at all, it might be indeed possible to mistake one for the other. No wonder language found its origin in myths. This summer reader is about the cup of coffee that keeps us awake every morning. How much of it has to do with caffeine and how much of it with our will to believe in rituals? Amen’.

“Fully submerged in the damp earth, I was deprived of visual sensation… Perhaps due to the mesmerising emptiness of the black void or else the lack of oxygen, my eyes soon made images of their own. Pulsating wires entangled before me and emitted an eerie green glow before surging brightly then fizzling away like fireworks. This combination of oscillating blotches and meandering lines crept from the corners of my vision like the growing outlines of a nervous system…”
Mechanical System Drawings Vol. 2 brings together a collection of drawings by Mathew Kneebone whose practice encompasses writing, performance, sculptural installation and drawings. As a child, Mathew’s sister was struck by lightning during a family trip, an event which could have triggered the corpus of work Mathew is working on to this day.

The first issue in the series TRANSLATION IN THE DARK features the first and only translation from Amharic into English of selections of Ethiopian novelist Abe Gubegna’s seminal novel “I Won’t Be Born” (1962). Part 1 also proudly features a new translation (Amharic into English) of poetry by contemporary Ethiopian artist and poet Mihret Kebede. As a series, TRANSLATION IN THE DARK embarks on a mission to employ unorthodox translation methods with the intention of honoring the misunderstandings, mishearings, missed translations, and misinterpretations that multiply and deepen meaning. As a fundamental part of this aim, the series offers a method for the redistribution of roles of author, translator, publisher, editor and reader.

Publishing Class is an imprint of DAI Publications, a collection of artists’ books jointly published by the Dutch Art Institute (DAI) and – Office for Art, Design and Theory in collaboration with the Werkplaats Typografie.

For this year’s LA Art Book Fair the Werkplaats Typografie was investigating the topic of Breaking-even. The Breaking-even publication presents a tangible outcome of the experience of Breaking-even at the LA Art Book Fair. Each workshop served as a chapter in the book and within that each participant’s contribution is represented. The six chapters of the book each present one of the workshops held at the fair, unraveling the mystery of breaking-even.

This first issue in a serial publication is inspired by a house located in the coastal town of La Marsa near Tunis. Taking the house’s close proximity to a gallery and a bookstore as a starting point for thinking through the book’s structure, the place quickly became both a literal and metaphorical character. The house is interesting not only in a historical sense, or for of the role it plays within the community, but due to its strong position as a host and the politics of hospitality it supports.

This publication draws on the documents compiled by the photographer and political activist Miklós Klaus Rózsa (1954) from 1971 to 1989, consisting of an assortment of photographs taken by Rózsa as well as state security files on Rózsa, as reported by the Federal Police, the Cantonal Police, and the Zurich Police Department. Christof Nüssli and Christoph Oeschger juxtapose the text produced by the state and the images produced by the monitored person. The collage of these sources produces new images that reveal the history of a politically agitated time in Switzerland. The montage brings the conflict between Rózsa’s images and the State Security texts to light. Observation and surveillance encounter one another.

Flamin’ Stars is a collaborative sound work by artist and writer Sarah Jones, sound producer Julika, and designer Ivan Martinez. The hour-long narrative piece, reminiscent of a radio drama, is based on a series of short, poetic texts developed during a residency period in Texas in 2013. Flamin’ Stars readdresses
notions in a contemporary context through a personal engagement with landscape and movement by three artists from different backgrounds. The work travels through, along, and at times ruptures contemporary dialogue around border landscapes, race, movement and environment. It hopes to go beyond the written and the spoken, into and then somehow beyond the specific context of the West Texas desert landscape.

The play for two actors and a choir, entitled I Was Not Able to Visit the Entire Show, was created with the intention of being staged within the environment of gallery institutions.

The famous Dutch typographer and museum curator Willem Sandberg is portrayed by art historian Ank Leeuw Marcar through interviews compiled more than 30 years ago. Particularly focusing on the period from 1945-1970, during which Sandberg was quite active and passionate in both typographic forms and as director of Amsterdam’s Stedelijk Museum, this thoroughly edited reprint of the original book closely examines his legacy and influence, its cultural aspects and roles of art historians and curators. His approaches to these topics remain relevant and challenging even today, offering new impulse in the discourse surrounding art and its place in an historic perspective.

Jesus, Make up and Football by Belgian photographer Frederik Buyckx is all about the favelas, or slums, of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. His photographs provide a haunting glimpse into the lives of the favela residents and what matters to the most: Jesus, make up and football.
Buyckx rented a pied-à-terre for a few months in a favela and shared the inhabitants’ daily vicissitudes. A fifth of Rio’s six million inhabitants live in favelas: self-built, improvised populous neighbourhoods in which life can be rough. With the World Cup coming to Rio in 2014 and the Olympics in 2016, the city is determined to show itself to its best advantage. The government is using the opportunity to clean up the slums and flush out the drug gangs.
The book is published by Lannoo (Belgium) and won several awards, including a World Press Photo Award in 2013. In 2017 Frederik was named ‘Photographer of the Year’ at the Sony World Photography Awards. His work has been published in National Geographic Magazine (NL), The New York Times Newspaper/Style Magazine (USA), The Sunday Times Magazine(UK), CNN Photo Blog (USA) and De Standaard (BE) among others.

This publication by Padraig Robinson and Daniel Frota was made in context of Publishing Class III: How to Live together, DAI. This publication was devised in the model of a conversation in collaboration with designer Daniel Frota, where the act of writing was used to explore the “idiorrhythmic” nature of the discourse around images.The starting point was an image published on The Guardian’s website on Monday 18th February 2013, which is an Instagram image said to be depicting a Palestinian boy in the cross hairs of an Israeli sniper’s rifle zoom. The distinct texts between artist and designer perhaps suggested that the nature of such pictures in general, even those that could be considered “political” at a given moment, have a very unusual condition within the online, digital circulation of social networking. The writing created a problematic regarding the agency of vision, based on an “ethical reaction” for an other we will never meet via image media. This is discussed, and indeed averted, through two individual perspectives — or a fragment of writing about vision.

Class Breaks was made in close collaboration with the artist Maja Hodoscek’s sister Zala who at the time of the book’s development was just finishing elementary school. For several months Zala secretly filmed activities at her school during class breaks. She was especially interested in shooting her closest classmates, Nik and Urh, and engaging in a series of discussions throughout the school. The book consists of fragments from these conversations. As the students touch upon political issues, their own position within institutional structures, and their relationships, Class Breaks provides stimulating insight into the social dynamics of the school environment.

How to Live Together series, the third edition of Publishing Class, focuses on writing and publishing as a speculative tool and as a conduit through which communities are fostered. Over the course of a year the class sets out to ‘publish’ individually and / or collectively, with the aid of monthly guests. It is inspired by Roland Barthes’ seminal 1977 lecture series that bears the same title. In that series Barthes developed the concept of ‘idiorrythmy’ to express a possible way of living together that preserved individual rhythms. Special guests to the class include: Hong-Kai Wang, Tea Hvala, Christian Nyampeta, Ayreen Anastas & Rene Gabri (16 Beaver), Pieter Verbeke & Elisabeth Klement (San Serriffe), Benjamin Thorel (castillo/corrales)

The Fantasy is the culmination of a period of research into tensions within the dilapidated Dutch city of Almere, and its failure to realize an architectural plan to become a utopian haven. The book takes the form of both travelogue and timeless voyage. Three characters, based on the city’s actual residents, share accounts of a fictional trip that traces a route based on small irregularities, curiosities and almost invisible details that were uncovered while wandering through the city. The Fantasy is a work of fiction, which, in merging social, political, and urban investigation with street observation, emphasizes how daily urban situations and invisible street practitioners define geopolitical conditions. This book belongs to the Publishing Class Collection How to Live Together Series published by CasCo Art Institute, Utrecht.

The South Highway is a gamebook. Part story, part game, this is a book with a difference –one in which you become the protagonist. The narrative changes according to your decisions on which path to follow, the actions to carry out, and the answers to give to other characters. It is you who interacts with the others inside the book, and thus are responsible for the protagonist’s vicissitudes. You will need all your wits about you to go through the unexpected that lies ahead. Apparently trivial situations can lead some time later to a serious outcome in which your own life can be at stake. Thus, choose your actions carefully!

The Finding & Raising of Anchors of Barges and Steamers plays with forms of content structuring and editing, based on research into knowledge management systems and Wikis. The book is made up of documentation of Quenton Miller’s artworks presented next to manipulated republished texts interspersed with annotations and footnotes. The design of the project involved implementing an updated idea of medieval rubrication, which sits on top of and along side the body text, spot printed in Pantone Green.

This publication is part of the magazine series ‘16’ and published on the occasion of the exhibition Vacanze da Trame, on show at the Bookshop Trame in Bologna, Italy. With contributions by Werkplaats Typografie participants.

A quadrangled story about shades and variations in co-dependence and sovereignty, inspired by a musician (John Lennon), a theorist (Henry Lefebre), an author (Halldor Laxness) and a demnted ruler of Rome (Caligula). Mindgames is constituted by four parts – ordered in alternating sequence – to form thirteen chapters in total. Each of the four sections holds a biographical account of its subject: Caligula, Henri Lefebvre, John Lennon and Halldór Laxness. The chapters can be read separately, as they have been conceived to be independent wholes, forming biographies that present portraits of associations rather than particular statements about individual lives. The text, however, is constructed to alternate rhythmically between the main motives. The motives in turn produce variations on particular themes as they modulate into different parts within the totality of the work as a whole. Mindgames was conceived as a way to enjoy information in the tradition of autodidacts of the past – but in a style which is commingled with a reverence towards traditional modes of archiving the world. The author will give a talk about the ideas behind the work and selected chapters will be read.

Geirþrúður Finnbogadóttir Hjörvar was born in 1977. She received her MFA from the Malmö Art Academy in 2005 and her BFA from the Iceland Academy of the Arts in 2002. She attended the Rijksakadamie residency program in 2007-2008 in Amsterdam. She works with sculpture, text, performance, painting and installations.

This work is a sound piece pressed onto 10” vinyl with an accompanying booklet. It is a construction of interwoven interview fragments in which three people recount transcending their ordinary perception of reality. Each of their accounts are laced with wavering perceptions, volatile realities, doubt, and an underlying quest for “truth.” The assemblage relates a fantastical and disturbing tale of esoteric and shamanic rituals, of training schools and occupation, of psychological and bodily accounts, treading a tenuous line between desire and turmoil. It poses the zealous nature of group and individual desire, and its potential to dominate and compel. While the transcription of the sound piece, printed in the booklet, reads as a stream of consciousness —it’s riddled with stutters and the three voices are indistinguishable from one another, there’s no punctuation and sentences potentially start, end or lapse at multiple points—the construction of the work is laid bare when the sound piece is listened to.
Total duration 30 mins.

In December 2011 Stefano and Eva worked together on an exhibition in a small artist-run space in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. The exhibition was called At the end of the world I exist and consisted of two diverse installations. The work on display was mirroring an ongoing discourse about traveling, distance and the transportive potentialities of the image starting from each our interests – respectively photography and architecture. Six months later, they organized an event at Schloss Ringenberg, Germany. During the night the work took the form of two presentations and a book, in order to broaden the performative side of the installation presented before and to transport the previous space into the new room, the Rittersaal. The presentations and the book touch, amongst other things, upon a postcard from Tenerife and the portrait of Emily Dickinson, respectively the features of the two specific exhibition spaces and the furniture that inhabits them. Artist and writer Miek Zwamborn was invited to write a contribution to the book as a third link. The sentence At the end of the world I exist was used as a point of departure point for a short story titled Legacies of the moon.

There was an empty room in the back of the Werkplaats Typografie. One day, that void has been pushed out of the two doors. In 2012 eighteen people had to find that space somewhere else. During six separate excursions, throughout Arnhem and the Netherlands, they explored the potentialities of the destruction and construction of new lands. They searched for the room that they had lost, or for the conditions and materials with which to rebuild it, and in doing so began to expand the walls of the school along a whole new set of trajectories and possibilities. Cosmic Mental Therapy is a guide for escape from sovereignty and a manual for creating new trajectories.
It consists of a collection of texts that were gathered through Year 12 and Year 13 WT participants. Contributions from Stefano Faoro, Ine Meganck, Corina Neuenschwander, Mark Simmonds, Rutger de Vries, Noah Venezia and Manuel Zenner.

This book is a photo book of an archive, or attempt to make an annex of Library of Light, archive which gives identity to Cosmic People (www.universal-people.com). With a focus particularly on this artificial archive, as a construction of fictions whose task is to produce a collection of effects of the real, idea of this book is to explore archives not as merely passive repositories, but rather as powerful tools that can be used to shape society, politics, and culture.

Each year Werkplaats Typografie organises its “Best Books” selection: every participant chooses a book according to specific criteria. The criteria for the 2012 selection derived from a discussion with Kobe Matthys from Agency, Belgium. The resulting publication collects conversations and meetings with and around books with Kees Beentjes, Katherina Bornefeld, Tamara Henderson, Harmen de Hoop, Oliver Ibsen, Colter Jacobsen, The Librarian at Arnhem’s Public Library, Henk Pel, Seth Siegelaub, Matthew Stadler, Joëlle Tuerlinckx, and Ashleigh Young.

Between 1967 and 1990, freelance photographer Reinhard Mende was commissioned by various GDR combines to document factories and the presentation of their manufactured products at the International Trade Fair in Leipzig. He portrayed women at their workbenches, he took shots of lamps, vacuum cleaners and kitchen appliances. The approximately 250,000 pictures in his archive – both in black and white and colour – offer a rare look at the factories and the people who produced all these commodities. Although the perspective was directed by official ideals, Mende followed his own view. Double Bound Economies explores how we might approach this unique body of images today: how we can access them, how we can derive historical insights from them, and for what considerations they might represent a starting point. Along with a number of essays the book includes artistic contributions by Armin Linke, Olaf Nicolai and KP Brehmer.

DAI PUBLICATIONS is a collection of artist’s books issued by the Dutch Art Institute (DAI) and designed in collaboration with the Werkplaats Typografie (WT). As of 2006 the series is supervised by an annually appointed collection editor; for 2011, visual artist Rebecca Sakoun. The 2011 edition consists of 16 publications.
This artist publication attempts to give shape to a long-lived rumour that has been in circulation for the last hundred years, concerning a copy of the Rijksmuseum building in Amsterdam called the Helix which is located in Maasmechelen, Belgium. This rumour never made it’s way to Amsterdam. The publication consists out of two parts, the first being a script or play inspired by and based on a meeting between two gentlemen who are both connaisseurs of either building. In coffee and fruitcake they meet in a piano showroom across the street from the so-called Copy, where they excavate the relationship established by the existence of this unofficial knowledge. In the three acts of this script laughter is used in a formal sense to surface latent feelings and a complex relationship embedded within this particular history where this history is not fixed but rather a daily practice. The general story line is supported on findings from prior research into five different archives, both in the Netherlands and Belgium, part of which is included in the publication.

Off the coast in the north of the Netherlands, an extinct, prehistoric volcano lies dormant in the layers of the earth and beneath the waters of the Wadden Sea. This volcano is 160 million years old and it was active for several million years. In the 1970s, while drilling for gas, volcanic specimens were found and thereby this volcano was discovered. Eva Olthof invited filmmaker/writer Peter Delpeut, researcher/writer Siri Driessen and visual artist Roman Signer to write a contribution for this publication. Delpeut wrote a fictive story, Driessen wrote an analysis of the photograph, and Signer send me a publication of his works on the phenomenon of volcanoes.
The publication is part of the series DAI PUBLICATIONS which is a collection of artist’s books issued by the Dutch Art Institute (DAI) and designed in collaboration with the Werkplaats Typografie (WT). The 2011 edition consists of 16 publications.

This is a publication with the Artist Patricia Sousa. The booklet is a space of expression of the norm of the passport pictures and regulations. The grid is the norm and the type evolves through the book in order to fill in the space of the spread, as the face should fill in the space of the photography. The 300 copies, like the passports, present a common state, personnalized by the hand glued colored pictures. With Texts by Sophie Nield and Raqs Media Collective.

First published in 1856, John Ruskin’s “Modern Painters vol.IV: Of Mountain Beauty” reflects on the geology of the Alps i terms of landscape observation and its moral and spiritual influences on those living nearby. The “mountainous mask” list derives from the original Index of that book.

Note on Pedro A.H. Paixao’s text: The text presented here is the development of a selection of notes written, at first, on the margins of the red drawings series, and after – conserving its informal shape, without reference notes -, as a reflection on affinities to Goncalo Senas use of drawing in his projects. The double ‘||’ within the text means not so much a paragraph division, but a lapse in time, allowing the text to remain as a condensed block, and to exhibit its journal nature, here exempted of places and dates.

A book about writing, storytelling, translation and interpretation. Artist Jort van der Laan translated ‘A Journey Through My Room’, a story by Dutch writer J.M.A Biesheuvel from Dutch to English (prior to this book’s publication in June 2011 the story was not available to read in English). Yet this translation is incomplete. The missing lines and paragraphs of the story are made visible throughout the book as blank spaces. The format of the book and design of the interior was copied from a 1972 collection of Biesheuvel’s stories owned by the artist which includes ‘Reis Door Mijn Kamer’ or ‘A Journey Through My Room’.

Avoiding the use of personal imagery, intimate photographs become generic due to small interventions; collage, modified poker cards and excerpts from magicians’ handbooks are combined to create a narrative that compares a deck of cards with any collection of photographs found in a traditional photo album. Starting from a series of nearly identical elements, it’s only the way we play them that provides a different result for each game .

A publication with texts by Lauren Alexander, Clare Butcher and extracts from David Blom (Oom Bolo) and Charles Nkosi. This publication forms part of the Cardboard Monument project, carried out in Soweto, Johannesburg from January – March 2011. It reflects on the significance and impact of community driven activist public art, using the Cardboard Monument project as a case study.
Published by the Dutch Art Institute & Mediafonds, this book intends to document, but also to create a platform for reflection following the Cardboard Monument project, and its influence on the Kliptown area, in Soweto Johannesburg. Cover Illustrations: Victor Mofokeng, Funda Community College.

“To imagine the draaiorgel and the modern CBD as a mismatched couple is easy. What is perhaps less easy to imagine is the actual scenario – passers by dressed in suits, commuter traffic/yuppies on their way to half-empty buildings. In their midst stands Zefi cranking a cast-iron wheel that produces strange long tones, intersected by shorter tones. Sound devoid of true musicality, perhaps something more like sonic shapes, thrown back at the architectural shapes from which they were derived – archaic and primitive.”

Initiatief ‘De Zolder van Duitsland’ maakt deel uit van een reeks van publicaties op initiatief van ArtEZ Academie van Bouwkunst, Arnhem. Dit boek is gebaseerd op het afstudeerproject van Seth de Rooij aan ArtEZ Academie van Bouwkunst. Mentoren: Ralph Brodrück, Wim Korvinus, Ady Steketee en Lada Hrsak. Met dit project won Seht de Rooij in 2006 de Archiprix.

De zolder is de plek van de verdringing, maar ook van de herinnering. Dat wat wordt verdrongen is niet voorgoed weg en kan in principe worden hervonden. Dresden is het symbool van het Duitse collectieve geheugenverlies geworden. Vandaar dat Seth de Rooij in zijn ontwerp de Erlwein-Speicher heeft omgedoopt tot de ‘Zolder van Duitsland’. Deze zolder moet in zijn visie dat wat verdrongen was terugbrengen in het geheugen. Als ‘Zolder van Duitsland’, een depot of pakhuis van hedendaagse kunst, krijgt de Erlwein-Speicher weer een eigentijdse plek in de recente geschiedenis en in de skyline van Dresden.

This publication is a result of Marc Hollenstein’s interest in aspects of translation. Originally from Switzerland, he had to learn a new language when moving to the Netherlands. Even though Dutch is closely related to German, it is still a foreign language for a native German speaker. It could even happen to be more difficult to remember the words, which are the same in both languages, than to learn the new ones. This was the starting point for a collection of common words, that are either written identically or pronounced the same in both languages. With a vocabulary of over 6000 words, the resulting publication also stands as a symbol for the common in the two languages.

Ach Ach en owee ach en ojee ach en onee ach geef acht doe mee! is a publication by Amanda Koelman in collaboration with Spinvis is part of the Publications Project, a collection of artist books issued by the Dutch Art Institute and designed in collaboration with the Werkplaats Typografie.

Amanda Koelman (b. 1985) is an artist whose work emanates from the belief that all humans strive to make sense of the universe around them. As throughout history and geography, people have created fairy tales, fables, fantastic stories, sagas, myths, and religions in order to conceive some sort of understanding of their surroundings. Koelman combines knowledge, ideas and elements from various times and different places in order to provide carnavalesque connections between stories, substances and the collective attribution of meaning. The used imagery and metaphors stem from different parts of the world and are combined by Koelman in a free and loose aesthatic that is nevertheless dense and layered. The work addresses a space beyond the material and rational world; where it enters the realm of hybrid myths and complex magic. The sensual, spontaneous, and emotional aspects of human nature are connected with the notions of birth and death, and everything in between.

For a short period, the artist Julio Pastor was allowed to occupy apartment 603 in a building in Delft before it was pulled down. During his time there, he set out to collect any traces he could find of the people who had lived in the apartment before by means of watercolour painting, polaroid and digital photographs. At the end of his stay Julio Pastor left behind all of the work he had produced in the apartment. This publication is the only surviving record of Julio Pastor’s investigation. In the process of creating it, the novelist Pierre Leroux re-signified apartment 603’s human traces by turning evidence into fiction. After Leroux, through the design of the publication, a new perspective on the project was discovered. The booklet brings to life reflections on shared notions of translation in the design process by putting the images of the artist back on the wall and rephotographing them.

Graduation booklet for Yen Yitzu. Texts: Francesco Bernardelli, Yen Yitzu
Artist books – The Dutch Art Institute is one of the master programmes of the ArtEZ institute of the Arts. The DAI is a practice based research institute but grants theory, knowledge production and reflection an important, shared position within the curriculum. Students at DAI participate in the discourses on the future of art in the context of a globalizing world. Because of the international student body DAI does not work with compelling formats, but instead folds thematic seminars and conferences and lectures in a flexible way around running projects. Since 2004 WT and DAI cooperate in editing, designing and producing the yearly graduation booklets for DAI.

This publication constitutes a stage in an ongoing research-based project initiated by the Greek contemporary artist: Yota Ioannidou. Published in 2009, Stratagem became the first moment where she made her exploration about economic relocation public. A collection of texts, interviews and imagery gives the reader an understanding about the process that moves the production of goods to Eastern Europe and Asia.

The Publications Project is a collection of artist books issued by the Dutch Art Institute and designed in collaboration with the Werkplaats Typografie. DAI and WT are both master programmes of ArtEZ. Gabrielle Schleijpen, course director of the DAI, founded the Publications Project in 2003. It started as an experimental and innovative research and publishing platform aiming to address the specific process of artist books production, from concept and design to distribution, and is now an acclaimed editorial project. Artists and designers are invited to team up in couples to produce an artwork in the form of printed matter, in close collaboration with one or more guest authors (historians, novelists, sociologists, artists, philosophers, etc. ).

Michel Foucault Letters documents artist Kevin Immanuel’s ongoing project archiving the supposed correspondence between the famous philosopher and a number of galleries and art institutions throughout Europe, North America, and China. The letters were, in fact, written by Immanuel himself, both as a literalization of Foucault’s emphasis on the importance of cultivating an “ironic stance” toward one’s present situation–in Immanuel’s case, the crisis of being a young artist trying to strike up a meaningful discourse with art institutions–and as a poignant critique of the relationship between art institutions and their patrons.
Each letter contains a polite request to become a member of the institution, offers a monetary donation, and actively attempts to initiate a critical dialogue with the institution about its programming and exhibitions. According to Immanuel, the only part of the letters that the institutions responded to were those pertaining to fiscal contribution, proving that the archetypal art institution is both unwilling and incapable of becoming part of a different discourse, even with figures of such cultural significance as Michel Foucault.
Includes an essay by Vesna Madzoski and “A Discursive Letter written to Michel Foucault” by Kevin Immanuel.

A set of 2 booklets: Marina + Buba. Buba Cvoric and Marina Tomic were born in Serbia 1980 and 1982, and are a collaborative artist team performing actively since 2005. Their performances present an exploration and study of a collective identity, intimacy and behaviour within mutual experience. In most of the works they strive to reveal and understand a marginal and subconscious nature of the collective mind.
These booklets are part of a growing collection of artists publications issued by the Dutch Art Institute (DAI) produced in collaboration with the Werkplaats Typografie and edited by artist/ curator Delphine Bedel. The 2009 edition consists of 15 publications by different artists, varying from printed matter, book and artist edition to performance artefact. For each project, the artist teamed up with a graphic designer from Werkplaats Typografie, and invited a guest author to contribute. Over the period of one year, various aspects of publishing- concept, editing and design, production and distribution – were addressed, while the artists were invited to see the publication process, as a way of generation work or conversation, rather than just representing it.

Our knowledge about light is based on possible theories, which can differ extreme. The fascination of certain artists towards the content of light can be explained by the complexity of this phenomenon. There are many sides to explore and new insights and ideas to approach this subject. The subject of light and the object of light are constantly nourished, what keeps light an vivid and contemporary subject. Suzanne’s interest lies in perception – how we see and how we perceive – most importantly on an individual and subjective level.

Being at once a school and at the same time not a school, a workspace, the Werkplaats Typografie (WT) tends to want to comment on its own distinctive form of academic pursuit (by way of, amongst other outlets, these School Journals). And during this sometimes faltering, sometimes successful quest, I’ve often thought about Jacques Rancière’s Ignorant Schoolmaster. Five Lessons in Intellectual Emancipation, not least because it outlines an “intellectual adventure” whereby any hierarchy amongst the students and between them and their tutor dissolves.

Emily: “This publication is in a process of finding out what it is as I do it. I find myself amidst a development in my work. This publication falls in the middle of that as a holder. This development is me trying to move away from transforming objects physically to transforming gm rolex day date 228349bkdp rolex calibre 2836 2813 mens 12mm them through talking about them, or to find a way to incorporate the narrative that arises from a work, as the more dominant part of the work. Through talking about objects, this can be used to place them in a different context, create networks between objects and address associations made through objects.”

Nothing about Dutch graphic design duo Mevis & van Deursen conforms to type. Praised for their innovative but clear presentation, they have designed everything from artist’s books for Gabriel Orozco and Rineke Dijkstra to an official government stamp commemorating the marriage of Dutch Crown Prince Willem-Alexander, based on the number two, since the wedding date was 02-02-02. This book represents a range of work from the past 15 years, mostly books but also posters and smaller pieces. However, the artists have chosen not simply to present the work again but to make it new through collage and reinterpretative interplay, thus "recycling" their innovative designs.

The second WT reader publication done with all participants of WT year 05 and 06. A theme ‘the global picked out from the local and the local seeped through the global’ was developed, researched and illustrated with in-house-generated-brand-spanking-new content as well as some carefully selected existing material. Participants formed the editorial team, worked as contributors and, naturally, designers.
With contributions by: Sven Herzog, Peter Robinson, Italo Calvino, Maxine Kopsa, Dirk Herzog, Susanne Stetzer, José Da Fonseca & Pedro Carolino, Eric Cruz, Red Zinia, Louise Dossing, Darcy D. Jeffs, Toshimasa Kimura, Karen van de Kraats, Jeffrey C. Ramsey and Layla Tweedie-Cullen

Between its covers are: a book about typography and graphic design, arranged around work from a single source and incubator, the Werkplaats Typografie. The book shows a selection of the work in thematic pages of images, such as posters, CD’s, books and postcards. Six highly distinctive authors describe the studio’s philosophies on typography and graphic design as well as the Werkplaats Typografie’s intentions and methods.

This publication was conceived as a supplement to the forgotten life of Eva Schippers, showing the parts of an artistic practise that are seldom exposed; failures, unfinished ideas, stolen sentences, unwritten stories. These fragments are collected and spread over five posters in chronological order; starting with the most recent finds and then going back in time untill 1997, the year when I started collecting to remember. It consists of approximately 480 images. Images to be remembered, reused and appropriated. With the contribution of the writer Maria Barnas, reflecting upon the affect of collecting and archiving, the Black and Blues is the first supplement. It is a transient attempt to display a complete collection of ideas and a practise that is always in motion, by marking this moment.
