forever foreign | Rina Banerjee

Haunch of Venison  |  April 2010
A publication accompanying the Haunch of Venison show Forever Foreign | Rina Banerjee. The publication consists out of two booklets, one displaying her drawings and one her sculptural work, held together by a transparent wrap around. The two covers placed side by side make up the world, embossed into the shimmering cover card. The title foręver föreign is written (and therefore pronounced) differently every time it appears, language always foreign to itself. The inside evokes the feel of a novel, the captions form part of a story.

Staying | Oreet Ashery

Artangel  |  January 2010
Oreet Ashery was asked by Artangel to lead a workshop with 12 lesbian asylumn seekers. During this workshop each participant created a fictional character to speak about the traumas and events experienced. The publication / pack contains 12 cards and one book, held together
by an x-rubberband. Each card displays one of the characters with a short text about the character and questions to the reader. The self-covering booklet has an exposed spine, exposed and vulnerable just like the asylumn seekers themselves. It contains essays by various lawyers and writings / interviews with and by the women.

-ing : spatial acts

Canterbury School of Architecture  |  September 2009
This publication showcases research and work by staff and students of Canterbury School of Architecture. The suffix -ing establishes various modes of performative spatial production. The cover of the publication, perforated to be ripped apart into 12 cards, reads – if put together – the word SPACE. The inside cover acts as an alternative contentspage with quotations of each of
the texts containing the different -ing words highlighted on the cover. The grid, created by the perforations, and the relation of each card to a text within the book, guides the graphical rhythm
of the different texts within this publication. An index of -ing words closes the book.

Touching the City

Canterbury School of Architecture  |  September 2009
Touching the City investigates the ways in which we interact with the city and explore our relationship with the unremarkable spaces we use and inhabit every day. Different papers and paper-weights, a fold-out map and the use of the tactile card for the cover underline this notion
of touching. The design further emphasizes the trajectory of the walk in the books' full colour center section.

Ridinghouse | Karsten Schubert  |  August 2009
This volume of newly commissioned interviews by John Reardon focuses on artists teaching
in the UK and Europe. The title relates to a period of time when certain artists entered the world
of teaching with the idea of being able to change things. The gradient on the cover and on the opening pages of the book reflects this gradual change.

Paula Kane: Studio Wall

International Centre for Fine Art Research  |  July 2009
This publication (one book, two cards and two booklets with texts by Mikey Cuddihy and Ian Heywood) takes 'the assemblage as a starting point, (...) to generate an open textual-visual conversation, juxtaposing fragments of thought, written notes and provisional indices, with photographs of the paintings to which they refer, in situ, clustered, regrouped or standing alone, creating a narrative that indicates the paintings themselves as sites of enquiry.'
