328 pages / 21 × 29.7 cm
A collection of works by Henri Jacobs who has been conducting an investigation into two-dimensionality, the flat nature and recto-verso proposition of a surface. Materialising in various forms such as plaited paintings to wall hangings, murals, brickwork,
ceramic works, and drawings made using a variety of techniques. One technique Jacobs regularly experiments with is that of plaiting paper, whereby old and new works or figurative and geometric images are woven together into a two-sided 2-D surface that is image, pattern, texture, and structure all-in one.

164 pages / 17.8 × 24.2 cm
Painting as Prop features four new essays and one conversation with the artist. Several paintings, some of which played a role as props in Sasnal’s recent film project The Assistant, take cues from archival images, banal snapshots, popular culture, and art history. The accompanying texts introduce Sasnal’s distinct portraiture, modernist inspirations, and the development of his first feature film.

During extensive travel between 2018 and 2024, Matthew Harvey photographed as widely as possible across a range of knotted ecological and infrastructural contexts being transformed by large-scale capital investment. Begun while working regularly in offset printing factories in East Asia, Europe, and North America, he was drawn to the messy and contingent worlds where life plays out at the factory’s extended edge. All shot on 35mm consumer-grade film, the film was developed, as far as possible, in one-hour labs in the locations where they were taken—the varying quality and color of the images reflecting differences in processing, scanning technologies, and human error—fading relics of another era in the intensive material and commercial production of everyday images.
Future Estate features 184 of those images, accompanied by texts based on autobiographical reflection and field notes, and an essay by AbdouMaliq Simone, documenting how places are organized and disorganized by commodity production; the geopolitics of development; and the zoning practices, extractions, and transnational investments that come with uneven processes of global labor and distribution. The book makes use of the unheroic image, the sideways view of the margins, offering alternative pathways to consider a world produced, consumed, constructed, maintained, variously inhabited, and precariously lived.

Mark Manders installed an exhibition in the Woning Van Wassenhove, a post-Brutalist house designed by Juliaan Lampens in 1974. Although Manders hardly touched some spaces, he treats the bed, office, and kitchen as stages for aggregation in line with the original occupant's mindset: drawings, architectural proposals, photographs, artworks, paint pots, and seemingly wet clay are piled on top of one another. In Manders words: "The aim is to show the house in a perfect situation. While some spaces derail when you zoom in on them, there is a kaleidoscopic element to it, as if you are looking inside a head." Design: Roger Willems. ISBN 9789464460490

PRODUCTORA |

|
2023 |
216 pages / 21 × 28 cm
Based in Mexico City, the architectural studio PRODUCTORA was founded by Abel Perles, Carlos Bedoya, Victor Jaime, and Wonne Ickx. In creating buildings that function, delight, stimulate, and are likely to withstand tectonic fads as well as telluric shifts, the studio never compromises the restless intellectual curiosity at its heart. Both a compendium and a promise of this singularity, this book surveys the groundwork PRODUCTORA has set down over a decade of activity, presaging what is possible as these foundations continue to be built upon. Their work is distinguished by an interest in precise geometries and the search for timeless material and spatial resolutions.

2023 |
208 pages / 21 × 29.7 cm
This artist's book is a somewhat fierce picture book showing a personal collection of ephemera collages made of material from the turn of the millennium. It contains 203 photocopies of collaged items collected by the artist between 1998 and 2003 in London, Copenhagen, Amsterdam and elsewhere. High Capacity is a compressed image of that time.
Until 2016, the loosely sorted material had been neatly filed in moving boxes, whereupon the artist took action: "'Either dump it or keep it,' I kept saying to myself. I grabbed a stapler and gave it a try." What you see here reveals his many varied interests: receipts, torn up checks, packaging of all sorts, drawn instructions, snapshots, vinyl lettering, and other textual imperatives. The way the book is printed also yields a fascinating, yet raw, facsimile of these photocopied collages. Designed and edited in collaboration with Toni Uroda. ISBN 9789464460483

2023 |
196 pages / 23 × 30 cm / in collaboration with Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam / Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven / Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Zurich
This publication by Yael Davids unfolded as a workbook along two different exhibitions: A Daily Practice at Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven (2020) and One Is Always a Plural at Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, Zurich (2021). In Eindhoven the exhibition emerged from a three year research cycle facilitated by the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. Within the Van Abbemuseum she set up an educational structure, initially afterschool care for children, which evolved into weekly Feldenkrais classes. In Zurich, taking up these ideas in connection with a collection show, which had not been done for some time, was a fruitful challenge. Design: Linda van Deursen. ISBN 9789464460346

The Sceptical Structures of Max |
James Beckett |
120 |
14.5 × 27 |
|
2022 |
120 pages / 14.5 × 27 cm
Artist James Beckett shines light on inventor Max Himmelheber, who modernised particleboard. Originally an act of frugality, Himmelheber bound the waste of sawmills with phenol resin, resulting in a highly versatile, stable product. Also known as chipboard, this material has spawned a love-hate relationship due its disposability, and more recently discovered environmental impact.
Almost pre-empting the material's pitfalls, Himmelheber turned his attention to a set of philosophical writings on humanity's role in an industrialised world, displaying a culturally conservative distrust of unchecked technical progress. His character permeates these pages, as we learn of his multiple intersections of boy scouting, Shintoism and environmentalism. Through a historical account of this little-known figure, The Sceptical Structures of Max is as much a lucid memento mori as a call to reimagine our relation to the environment.
The book includes a contribution by and conversation with Dirk van Weelden. ISBN 9789464460285

Simon Boudvin |

2022 |
200 pages / 24.5 × 32.5 cm
During his residency at Villa Medici in Rome in 2020 and 2021, artist Simon Boudvin passionately explored a collection of old issues of architectural and design magazines, focusing on the 80's period. In them, splotchy, stripy, wiggly, flashy shapes are brought together in a cheerful environment by artists, architects, photographers, designers, manufacturers and more. These contributors participated in creating the common ornamental background of that time. Boudvin has now collected together noteworthy pages from those magazines to create a composition of 192 close-ups enlarged to 400%. By just zooming in on patterns, textures and graphic samples, without depicting any objects, a beautiful chapter in the history of Italian design unfolds. Published with the support of the French Academy in Rome. Design: Simon Boudvin & Roger Willems. Edition of 500 copies. ISBN 9789464460292

La scomparsa degli sciapodi |

|
2022 |
96 pages / 21 × 28 cm
La Scomparsa Degli Sciapodi (The Dissapearance of the Skiapodes) is a book that brings together several historical images of Skiapodes. The term Skiapode - also spelled Sciapode, Skiapod or Sciapod - derives from the Greek compound skia-podes, literally meaning 'shadow-feet'. Throughout history Skiapodes have appeared and again disappeared in numerous cultures and folklore traditions. They are commonly described or depicted as figures with a single obnoxious large foot, who are in the habit of lying on their backs, during the time of extreme heat, and who protect themselves from the sun by the shade of their feet. Over the last two decades, Mark Manders has been collecting, and secretly making, various images of Skiapodes as part of the work Room With All Existing Words (2005-2022). The publication comes with a short manual, instructing how to perform a trick that makes the images fade in black and white, and eventually disappear. Design: Mark Manders with Simon Bultynck. ISBN 9789464460209.

2022 |
192 pages / 18 × 25 cm / in collaboration with Musée de Bagnes, Le Châble
This is the 8th artist's publication in conjunction with the yearly summer exhibition in the area of the Mauvoisin Dam in Vallais, Switzerland, curated by Jean-Paul Felley. Meadow is part of the Occupy Mars project, conducted by Pauline Julier and Clément Postec, which sees Mars as a mirror of Earth at the dawn of the new age of space exploration, extractivism, and colonialism. It bridges multiple, alternative perspectives that question both past and future to bring new narratives to the fore. Through a series of films, publications, and public discussions, the project aims to insert new, insurgent voices into the fray. A first exploration took place in the Atacama Desert in Chile, where the training sites of NASA's rovers are located next to one of the largest lithium mines in the world. From this trip was created the video installation (three-channels) Follow The Water, in which the protagonists tell their attachment to this territory.
The title refers to The Meadow by James Galvin, 1992. Design: Roger Willems. ISBN 9789464460216

296 pages / 24 × 30.5 cm
The title of this book with 768 Polaroids refers to the types of peel-apart instant film that Dana Lixenberg used between
1993 and 2010, which could be loaded into a cassette that fit into her 4×5" field camera. These instant Polaroid prints, serving as test and reference
material for lighting and composition, provide an intimate glimpse into Lixenberg's work process during photo shoots for numerous clients such
as Vibe, The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, Rolling Stone, Vrij Nederland, and personal projects. After the
Polaroid Corporation went out of business in 2008, Lixenberg finished her last box of Polaroid 54 two years later. Apart from being an ode to this specific material, the large collection of portraits also reflects the American culture and
society Lixenberg encountered in the 1990s and 2000s. Design: Roger Willems. ISBN 9789464460223

From the 1960s, Croatian artist Julije Knifer (1924-2004) painted stark, snaking, geometric lines that he called meanders. The monotony and absurdity of this practice, and journaling about his non-progress every day, was for Knifer "a very specific form of freedom". Each painting was not a whole, but part of a larger stream. This edition of The Serving Library Annual explores this theme, where the meander offers both the promise of continuity and the mixed blessing of recurrence. Its freely wandering contents include contributions by Julije Knifer, Anuja Dhir and Ab Rogers, Anthony Huberman, Yuji Agematsu, Tauba Auerbach, Emilie M. Reed, Lauren Elkin, and others.

240 pages / 21 × 29.7 cm
Language abounds in all areas of Josse Pyl's artistic practice. His sculptures and drawings are often attempts to translate the hidden logic of signs and symbols, while his animatronic works draw attention to the ways communication is performed. Working with a range of media and materials, Pyl gives shape to the experiences of thinking, writing, looking, and reading, locating them within spatial environments.
i THINK and I think i've THOUGHT a thought collects the various components of Pyl's practice from 2014 to 2021 in one publication by making use of the frottage technique. Working with pencil and paper, Pyl has inscribed each page with elements taken from different works. From these fragments, when they are taken together, a new vocabulary can be assembled: a collection of semantic artifacts rendered in binary patterns of light and shadow, negative and positive, and in no gradated or hierarchical order. The images that can be composed from these fractured parts are revealed only gradually as they superimpose upon each other, conjuring new associations, new ways of reading, with each turn of the page.

Superstructures (Notes on Experimental Jetset / Volume 2) is an inquiry into the role of the city as an infrastructure for language (and simultaneously, into the role of language as an infrastructure for the city), as seen through the lens of four historical movements: Constructivism, the Situationist International, Provo, and the Post-Punk explosion.
Based on a research project (and accompanying exhibition) by Experimental Jetset, the publication features footnotes written by Vasyl Cherepanyn, Leontine Coelewij, Linda van Deursen, Experimental Jetset, Owen Hatherley, Brad Haylock, Dirk van den Heuvel, Lieven Lahaye, Samata Masato, Tom McDonough, Kateryna Mishchenko, Other Forms, Mark Owens, Megan Patty, Adam Pendleton, Simon Reynolds, Ian F. Svenonius, McKenzie Wark, Lori Waxman, and Mimi Zeiger.
The 420-page paperback comes with a 24-page zine, zooming in on the design typology of the original exhibition. Design: Experimental Jetset. ISBN 9789492811868.

Visual manifesto with works by 47 artists, exploring the notion of 'the photographic', an analysis of the effects the technical image has on the visual culture as a whole. The photo essay focuses on contemporary artistic practises and experimental approaches to photography, divided into four themes: The Photographic Fossil, Chemical Matter, Optical Confusion, and Performing the Image. The accompanying text insert, with contributions by Steven Humblet, Marc De Blieck, Liz Deschenes, Markus Kramer, and Joanna Zylinska, engages a discourse among artists and intellectuals on defining photography and technique. Off Camera is the conclusion of a research project carried out by Belgian researcher Steven Humblet's group, Thinking Tools, at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp.

Limited edition photobook by Ari Marcopoulos with text by Kara Walker. All photographs were taken on trips in 2018 and 2019, when Ari and Kara went to visit their friends Robert Frank and June Leaf in their home in Mabou Mines, on Cape Breton in Nova Scotia, Canada.
Marcopoulos: "I came around the bend of the unpaved road that opened up onto a bay and a view out to the ocean as far as the eye could see. I knew this view very well, even though it was my first time there. I had seen it in the Scalo edition of Robert Frank's book The Lines of My Hand. The cover is graced with a drawing by June Leaf, Robert's wife. They invited Kara and me to their summer house in Mabou. We were visiting our friends, but that view from the bay made it feel like a pilgrimage to me. We spent time talking, sitting in silence, and sharing meals. Ainsi soit-il, was the sentence Robert taught me. Translated: So be it. There you have it."
The book was produced in 2021 but only released in 2023. It comes in a sleeve with 4 inserts, including a signed Riso print in black, blue or red, randomly selected out of two picture options. Design: Roger Willems. ISBN 9789492811844

This year's Annual is published in tandem with a long-term installation of The Serving Library's collection of (mostly) framed objects at 019, an artist-run space in a former welding factory in Ghent, Belgium. Apparently, the sole common denominator of the objects in the collection - which range from paintings, photographs, and LP sleeves, to a can of green paint, a German car license plate, and an ouija board - is to have appeared as illustrations in an issue of The Serving Library Annual or one of its immediate predecessors, Bulletins of The Serving Library or Dot Dot Dot, sometime over the last 20 years. The present volume assembles The Serving Library collection at the time of writing, arranged in chronological order of production, as full-page images with extended captions.

Small sized text book by Jalal Toufic, published in conjunction with the exhibition Let's be honest, the weather helped by Walid Raad at Moderna Museet, Stockholm (February 15 - May 10 2020).
Joan Copjec about the book: A brilliant, ramifying series of thought experiments, Postscripts rigorously avoids becoming a no-stakes mind game. Here, the stakes - political, aesthetic, ethical - are quite high. For, the experiments are rigged to combust those ideas and stances thatinsufficiently tolerant of counterfactuals - fail to pass their test. Deadly serious and humorous at once, these thought rifts for a moment expose what is unthinkable - but for the creative collaboration they stage between the two aspects of "the mortal, dead while still alive" - before it is once again abducted. Jalal Toufic invents and masters his own transversal genre, sentence by ingeniously-placed sentence.
Jalal Toufic is a thinker and a mortal to death. He was born in 1962 in Beirut or Baghdad and died before dying in 1989 in Evanston, Illinois. His books are available for download, free of charge, at www.jalaltoufic.com.

Catalog for the exhibition Walid Raad - Let's be honest, the weather helped, organized by Moderna Museet, Stockholm (February 15 - May 10 2020), and the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (May 15 - October 13 2019). Besides installation views, the book includes illustrated text contributions by Fredrik Liew, and Maria Minera, and a scripted version of Raad's entire 75-minute performance/walktrough Kicking the Dead and/or Les Louvres.
Walid Raad engages in how violence affects bodies, minds, culture and tradition. In his works, Raad proceeds from historical events to imagine seemingly ludicrous, bizarre, and wondrous situations and documents. The projects are closely linked to his experiences of growing up in Beirut during the civil war in Lebanon, moving to New York, and being an artist in a globally expansive art world.

144 pages / 21 × 29.7 cm / in collaboration with The Serving Library
The 2019/20 issue of The Serving Library Annual is entirely devoted to the late Italian designer, artist, inventor and polymath Bruno Munari. The core of the annual is the first English translation of
Obvious Code, the 1971 collection of Munari's own writings, sketches and poems about his own work, published by arrangement with Corraini, who issued the book's anastatic edition in 2017. It includes
iconic design objects such as the Abitacolo, ground-breaking artworks such as his 1952 series of hand-made projection slides, and little known rhymes about the art market, as well as an original piece
from his "unreadable books" series. In the margins, dozens of artists, designers, writers and curators have been invited to annotate Munari's texts - with a sketch or a quotation, an in-depth
analysis, a fragment of conversation, a free association - as a testament to the depth of the influence exerted on international art by an often underacknowledged pioneer, whose visual experiments
were so iconic as to become a self-evident part of visual culture, an anonymous invention: an obvious code. Annotated by, among others: Paola Antonelli, Leonor Antunes, Céline Condorelli, Matali
Crasset, Umberto Eco, Morgan Fisher, Rob Giampietro, Jenny Jaskey, Emily King, Lászlo Moholy-Nagy, Rosalind Nashashibi, Arturo Carlo Quintavalle, João Ribas, Alberto Salvadori, Orson Welles, and
Olimpia Zagnoli. Edited by Francesca Bertolotti-Bailey, Stuart Bertolotti-Bailey, Vincenzo Latronico, and David Reinfurt. Design: Stuart Bertolotti-Bailey. ISBN 9789492811653

256 pages / 24 × 30.4 cm / in collaboration with Musée de Bagnes, Le Châble
For her solo exhibition at the Mauvoisin Dam in Switzerland in the summer of 2019, Suter focused on her ever-expanding archive of scanned landscape images, which had already started to play an important role in Parallel Encyclopedia #2 (ROMA 284, 2016). Many of those images depict wastelands, alternating between romantic and menacing views which simultaneously create sensations of majesty and disorientation. By layering them over each other, a variety of disparate geological and biological environments merge into composite landscapes we might only recognise from dreams and fairy tales. In the books sequence, a kind of adventurous journey takes shape, pitched between an odyssey, a safari and paradise. The book's title is derived from the term Hexameter, a poetic form of writing used in Homer's Odyssey. Mont-Voisin, which also serves as the title for the exhibition, is inspired by different spellings used by 18th and 19th century travellers to describe Mauvoisin. Design: Batia Suter, Roger Willems.

112 pages / 23 × 30 cm / in collaboration with De Oude Kerk, Amsterdam
Publication about the work of Marinus Boezem, named after the installation Boezem developed for the Oude Kerk in Amsterdam in 2016. Boezem is considered to be one of the founders of Dutch conceptual art. A certain levity is quite typical of his work, for which he often makes use of intangible elements such as wind, air and transparency. He has a profound fascination with Gothic architecture, particularly cathedrals, which he sees as a metaphor for the human desire for spirituality. Cathedrals embody our desire to fly, to rise up and leave all earthly things behind. One of Boezem's most famous works is the Green Cathedral (1978-2016) in the Dutch province of Flevoland. Still visible today, this project consists of 178 poplars planted in the form of the full-size plan of Reims Cathedral. The result is a cathedral of trees, with the sky as a canopy. This plan has become Boezem's personal logo. With text contributions by: Germano Celant, Nathalie Zonnenberg, Lorenzo Benedetti, Jacqueline Grandjean and Lorenzo Bruni. Design: Louis Lüthi.

A culmination of five years of research and production by Suki Seokyeong Kang, Black Mat Oriole was conceived as an installation that brings together sculpture, painting, and video to engage viewers with the power and politics of space. This book is published on the occasion of her exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Art, University of Pennsylvania. While Kang's expanded painting practice is rooted in her interest in classical Korean poetry, craft, and dance, her concerns are firmly articulated in the present. She explores how a space can be divided into grids, whether with regard to systems of power, cultural customs, or artistic lineage. Traditional handwoven reed mats are also used to indicate how bodies might move through a choreographed space. Design: Sulki and Min. ISBN 9789492811547

Bühnenbilder, the title of Silke Otto-Knapp's exhibition in Minneapolis, are the fabricated views resulting from dressing sets. Neutral until they are costumed, they are like blank volumes awaiting a set designer's meticulous treatment. The only colours in these works are black, grey, silver, and white. The artist's palette and methodology, in which she applies a dark watercolour wash and then subtracts from it using absorptive implements, raising images from the dark, reflects the photograph's urge to resurface something whose very location - in history, memory, desire - eludes the grasp of any image.
