Talk in Bremen
On May 4th I’ll give a presentation of my work at the symposium ‘Artists as Independent Publishers’ at the Weserburg museum in Bremen. The symposium is free to attend.
Artists as Independent Publishers is a teaching project, an international cooperation, an exhibition cycle and a symposium aiming to explore tendencies and opportunities in present-day art as well as help actively shape them.
The project was initiated by Katrin von Maltzahn and Anna Lena von Helldorff from the University of the Arts in Bremen and takes place from early 2015 to the end of 2016 in cooperation with four other European art universities – the University of Applied Arts Vienna, Royal College of Art, London, Bergen Academy of Art and Design and the Royal Institute of Art, Stockholm. In this context, all of the partner universities have worked individually on the topics of artists’ books and “publishing as artistic practice”.
As of May 2016 the project will lead to joint exhibitions in Bremen, Bergen, Vienna, Stockholm and London, kicked off by a symposium as well as an exhibition in collaboration with the Centre for Artists’ Publications in the Museum Weserburg in Bremen.
The exhibition will be opened on 3 May, at 7 pm, showing the works and projects of the participating countries. Simultaneously, various guests will discuss the subject of publishing from a contemporary perspective during a public symposium.

Upcoming debate in Brussels
On March 5 I am participating in a debate about self-publishing: “Bringing together the makers’, publishers’ and distributors’ points of view on contemporary publishing as a vector for works of art and as a work in itself. Artists-led books, self and independent publishing will be questioned, as well as the articulation between the self, the collective and the public. Can the book be a shared object, an alternative way of making things public? A debate with bookshop owner Andrea Copetti (Tipi bookshop) and artists Elisabeth Tonnard and Vincent Delbrouck, animated by Loraine Furter (Fernand Baudin Prize).”
It is organized by the photography department of Sint-Lukas in Brussels and open to anyone interested.

A celebration of ephemeral images in a mix of slideshow, reading, and lecture. Presented by J&L Books in The Classroom, curated by David Senior. The Classroom is in the main building at MoMA PS1.
