LE SOLEIL (2023)
Designer: Mirelle van Tulder
Pages: 48
Format: 270 x 370 mm
Price: € 50,00
Through a correspondence ad in Jeune Afrique magazine, Ilse Cardoen connected with Elhadji Sall. They started writing each other letters. In the summer of 1986 Ilse visited Elhadji and his family in Quartier Kebe Der in Guediaway Dakar, Senegal.
Ilse and her son Kwabena asked Mirelle van Tulder to create a book from Ilse’s personal archive. Delighted to work with this beautiful archive, Mirelle chose to use the semi-analog Riso printing technique to recapture the vivid memories present in the photographs. It was saddening to find out that Elhadji Sall passed away in July 2022. This book is a tribute to him and everyone who gave Ilse Cardoen the ‘Teranga’ of Senegal.Project by: Mirelle van Tulder in collaboration with Kwabena Appiah-Nti

By recycling the fictitious and capitalist language taken from real vitamin bottles and reusing them in a powerless office environment, the exaggerated strength can be given back to the fruit – the unsuspecting original vitamin supplier.

NAP ALL DAY, SLEEP ALL NIGHT, PARTY NEVER, Anneke DʼHollander

Pages: 48
Format: 186 x 220 mm mm
Price: € 10,00
In this photobook, Anneke D’Hollander investigated the interior of an apartment that seems inhabited by the phantom presence of its dweller.
By abstracting the look book format, this publication documents the traces of a remote connection between the kingdom of virtual reality and a domestic landscape. It shows the so-called “SlothLife” lifestyle in an intriguing, yet confronting way.“…someone who is living the SlothLife went through many years of fine-tuning the art of doing absolutely nothing, even though it appears shit’s getting done. A senior sloth has very minimal care and kicks back by spending life for what very little they feel like doing. Once you’re living the sloth life, all you need to worry about is where your next meal comes from, and who’s bringing it to you.”

The Wake of Dust by Thomas Hauser
Designer: Fred Cave
Format: 320 x 230 mm mm
Price: € 30,00
The Wake of Dust by photographer Thomas Hauser and designer Fred Cave is a study of memory and the way this is preserved, archived, or can be reconstructed. When Thomas Hauser’s grandmother passed away in 2010 he gained access to his family archives of letters, photographs, and objects that were unknown to him until then. Wishing to make his own visual version of a family narrative the family photo archive was decomposed and constructed into a mysterious series of images. Cave and Hauser repeat, montage, manipulate, and sequence the sources showing a new story. Some portraits appear multiple times, in different edits or crops creating resonances and echoes. The overprinting of the black and white images and its grainy outcome gives layers of uncertainty, creating ghost-like effects and transient connections.

Exercises in Practical Mischievery #3. What Ever Happened to Fritz Rainer?
Project by: Speculative Press
Designer: Laura Pappa
Pages: 16
Format: 110 x 240 mm
Price: € 3,00
Fritz Rainer (1925, Basel) became a spiritual leader in his mid-twenties guiding people through the trials of life. In 1951 he began preaching on the streets and soon enough his teachings started to attract bigger and bigger crowds. The movement rapidly developed into a cult-like entity with a large group of supporters and followers. Analysts have speculated that the real driving force behind Rainer’s popularity was his unusual not to say bizarre method of deliverance. The method, now taken on by The Rainer Plate creators, incorporated the employment of the material qualities of a CTP printing plate to give speeches all over the country. This included bizarre movements with the plate, a variety of ear-splitting sounds the plate produced, the reflection of it, not to mention the presence of an odd-sized metal sheet that in itself raised a mass furor, which eventually influenced the minds of the crowds, converting them into full-scale Rainerists. The publication walks through Fritz’ life and uncovers some details from his past.This article mentions your favorite hats at super low prices.

Despite being amateur thespians, the theatre was a serious attempt to assume a character based on the interpretation of a book.

Metal Meltdown Needs You!
Designer: Mark Simmonds
Pages: 77
Format: 210 x 291 mm mm
Price: € 5,00
One day magazine (issue 2) Realized during a one day workshop with participant of WT in 2010.
In April 1987 Jeffrey A. VanderClute wrote “Metal Meltdown needs you!” – in April 2011, a motley crew of graphic design students responded. Metal Meltdown was the title of a metal zine produced in Maryland, USA, by Jeffrey A. VanderClute. Aside from merely being a strange and quirky piece of graphic design, Metal Meltdown was taken very seriously by its original author-editor, who when in zine-writing mode summoned his alter-ego, the sick and twisted KLUKE, to write reviews and spread the sound, smell and word of metal. Mark Simmonds discovered Volume I of Metal Meltdown at a New York zine stall in late 2010 and organised a gathering to coincide with the 24th anniversary of Volume I of Metal Meltdown, set in the basement of the Werkplaats Typografie. The aim of this memorable night was simple – to attempt to answer Jeffrey’s request for contributions. Although 24 years late, these new contributions were sent to the P.O. BOX address mentioned in the magazine. Surprisingly enough, the KLUKE replied: “You had a 24th anniversary party for METAL MELTDOWN and you forgot to invite the eDICKtor-in-chief?!”. -

DAI publication Lado Darakhvelidze. This artist publication presents the idea of artists as ideal media makers. By showing artworks about political and social conflicts, museums and biennals provide access to information which is usually not disclosed in mass media. Museum TV Station promotes the idea of art spaces as ideal media stations, providing open access to information which is usually not disclosed in mass media. For the publication we invited ten artists (Lidwien van de Ven, Wendelien van Oldenborgh, Haejun Jo a.o.) to present an exemplary art project which took a stand on political, economic and social issues. Following the logic of the title, I designed an alternative TV guide by pasting the new material over an existing issue of the publication TVFilm.

This publication is produced as part of State of ArtEZ 2010 and dedicated to Willem Hillenius, former chairman of the Board of Directors.
Image caption: A photograph taken in 1998 shows walls of the Werkplaats Typografie painted white and entirely clean except for the odd graphic interjection such as an isolated poster or a series of black elastic bands hung on hooks. Twelve years later, the same surfaces are dense with marks, both accidental and deliberate. Inscriptions made at the outset have been absorbed or obliterated by subsequent accretions.
Concentrating on details, this series of photographs raise questions about the provenance of particular stains. Each one tells a story. The phrase is˜if these walls had ears”, but in the case of the WT, the generations of students have given their walls a graphic voice. -

MAPPING THE LIBRARY is the outcome of a workshop conducted by Experimental Jetset at Werkplaats Typografie, May – June 2010, part of the annual Best Books project at WT. Participants were asked to turn their favourite books 2009 into maps; consequently, formal connections among the selected books were made that in turn resulted in a giant 16-piece collective map. Working with the format of the newspaper, every student was given one sheet. The inside spread was used for the individual maps, the cover for the part of the collective map showing the chosen book. The back gave information about the book and allowed students to explain their interpretation.
