Remember me
2022 || Hardcover || Cathalijn Wouters || Lecturis
De tekeningen van Cathalijn Wouters zijn meer dan een voorstelling van inkt op papier. Geroemd om hun krachtige, universele emoties uitgedrukt in schijnbaar een enkele zwarte lijn op een witte ondergrond, is de techniek weliswaar dienstbaar aan het narratief maar is de identiteit van de kunstenaar altijd herkenbaar.
Na eerdere boeken (Beyond Reality en Independent), is Remember Me haar eerste boek dat geheel aan haar tekeningen is gewijd. Meer nog dan in haar neo-impressionistische olieverfsc...

100MJ
2022 || Hardcover || Bas Kosters e.a. || Idea Books B.V.
‘100MJ’ concerns an intuitive and personal drawing project about identity by Dutch artist Bas Kosters. The book shows a series of a hundred full page drawings based on the image of Michael Jackson. It is about how people are shaped trough the eyes of others, the reach of recognizability and identity. It plays with the ideas about visual culture and recognizability. In hundred portraits drawn on ephemera Kosters shows, in a poetic manner, man in all their strength.

Kara Walker Book of Hours 2020-2021
2022 || Hardcover || Kara Walker || Idea Books B.V.
Over the course of 202-2021, during the pandemic, Kara Walker has produced series of drawings in the style of a medieval 'Book of Hours'. Enigmatic images appear to traverse a range of time periods, from scenes of biblical and mythological origins, to images of historical violence, to others that suggest more recent political strife. The highly personal nature of these images capture Walker's own response to the intersection of past and present as a way to understand our contemporary politica...

Cobra – A Pictorial and Poetic Revolution
2022 || Hardcover || Paul Huvenne || Hannibal Books
A magnificent introduction to the Cobra art movement
With French as its working language, Cobra was pretty much the last truly European movement within Modernism. The group’s anarchic story is not just an important strand in art history — it remains as lively as ever and has inspired all sorts of artists who were never directly involved with Cobra. The work bequeathed to us by Karel Appel, Pierre Alechinsky, Constant, Corneille and other kindred spirits is as fascinating as ever, both raw...

Listening to the Deep Earth
2022 || Hardcover || Stuart Hyatt e.a. || Jap Sam Books
What does the Earth sound like? In 'Stations: Listening to the Deep Earth', musician Stuart Hyatt teams up with PRINTtEXT to invite poets, composers, and scientists to answer this question. What begins as a grand science experiment quickly transforms into a lyrical duet with the enchanted ground beneath us.
Hyatt and Enrique Ramirez begin the text with examinations of a whole-Earth sensorium. The text then branches out in three directions—Invocation, Reverie, and Rhapsody—before reconverg...
