Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Willem Oorebeek – MONOLITH, lettered rock, at With de With, Rotterdam, 4 June–24 July, 1994.
Dutch artist Willem Oorebeek’s (1953) work is grounded in techniques from the graphic arts. He utilizes different printing processes in a special manner, fully employing the printing procedure’s inherent principles of juxtaposition and stratification in order to explore the themes of repetition, multiplication, seriality and order. Oorebeek is especially interested in how image and language can combine and lead to a unique cross of visibility and legibility. [exhibition press release]
This book can be read from the front or the back, one direction in English, and the other in German, where one encounters texts by various authors on topics such as the art of forgery, the fiction of photography as a medium of reality, the detective as a seeker of truth, history and memory. In addition to the texts, the images are important as references to our visual culture. They come from, among others, Rodin, Duchamp, Bonnard, Vermeer, Godard, as well as from our everyday world, and are partly interwoven with texts, partly scattered throughout the book like vignettes.

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Yayoi Kusama at Nagano Prefectural Shinano Art Museum, Nagano, 22 April – 22 May, 1994. Yayoi Kusama’s work has transcended two of the most important art movements of the second half of the twentieth century: Pop art and Minimalism. Her highly influential career spans paintings, performances, room-size presentations, outdoor sculptural installations, literary works, films, fashion, design, and interventions within existing architectural structures, which allude at once to microscopic and macroscopic universes.
