Bill is an annual magazine that prioritises visual reading of its photographic stories without the distraction of text.

Contributors to this sixth instalment include conceptual artist Rosemarie Trockel, Croatian artist Hana Miletić, RareBooksParis, architect and designer Thorben Gröbel, Japanese artist Yuji Agematsu, French artist Claude Closky, California-based artist Sam Contis, Dutch photography studio Blommers/Schumm, photographer Michael Schmidt, Swiss artist Beat Streuli, and photographer Adrianna Glaviano.

On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the birth of Jože Plečnik (1872–1957), a key figure of the Modernist movement in architecture and creator of numerous buildings and monuments around the city of Ljubljana, in 2022 Luca Lo Pinto and Olaf Nicolai curated an exhibition titled I Am Only the Housekeeper, but I Don’t Know… in the Slovenian architect’s former home. The publication retraces the contemporary interventions undertaken by the curatorial duo, who invited twenty-five internationally recognised Slovenian and foreign artists, allowing them to enter the house through their own works to commemorate Plečnik’s oeuvre and place its reading into a different and more contemporary context.
