Exhibition guide was produced on the occasion of Choses tuées, held at de Appel arts centre in Amsterdam, 2015.

The collective artist gerlach en koop renders things visible by repetition, copying or reuse, by displacement and misplacement, by omissions, erring and making mistakes. The smaller the distance between two identical things—differences that sometimes can only be conceived of—the more interesting.

The Weather is Quiet, Cool and Soft
Guy Mees
Published by MuZEE, Oostende, 2018, foldout poster (b/w ill.), 15 × 21 cm (folded), 42 × 59 cm (unfolded) English
Price: €6

Poster produced on the occasion of Guy Mees: The Weather is Quiet, Cool and Soft at MuZEE, Oostende, 24 November, 2018–10 March, 2019. The Weather is Quiet, Cool and Soft presented works from different stages in the career of the Belgium artist Guy Mees (1935–2003) to shed light on his intuitive and conceptual approach. The selected works ranged from early lace pieces generically entitled Lost Space to the films and the photographs of the series of portraits Difference of Levels, never before shown structuralist works from the 1970s, pastel on paper series from the mid-1970s and paper cut-outs from the 1980s. Together, these allow a study of Mees’s practice and his ideas of mutability, fragility, porosity and the expansion of pictorial space into social space. The title of the exhibition (taken from a note by the artist) is a reference to the atmospheric impermanence in Mees’s work and his relativist poetical approach.

EVERY SINGLE DAY
Haim Steinbach
Published by Museum Kurhaus, Kleve, 2018, 8 postcards (b/w ill.), 10.5 × 15 cm, German
Price: €30

Set of 8 postcards produced on the occasion of Haim Steinbach: every single day, a comprehensive solo exhibition at the Museum Kurhaus Kleve, 22 September, 2018–27 January, 2019.

For more than four decades, Haim Steinbach has explored the psychological, aesthetic, cultural and ritualistic aspects of collecting and arranging already existing objects. His work engages the concept of “display” as a form that foregrounds objects, raising consciousness of the play of presentation. Steinbach selects and arranges objects—which range from the natural to the ordinary, the artistic to the ethnographic—thereby emphasizing their identities, inherent meanings and associations. An important influence in the growth of post-modern artistic dialogue, Steinbach’s work has radically redefined the status of the object in art.
