be here best verzorgde boek 2023
Onze publicatie -be here- is door de student jury geselecteerd tot een van
de best verzorgde boeken 2023 en ligt nu bij de andere geselecteerden
De jury: " our most controversial pick of the litter is 'be here', the typography
feels a little on the boring side., but the book as an object really brings it home.
While looking through an almost fan-like object, with each page being a registration
of a work by the artist, the book celebrates the artist's 90th birthday. The whole
project questions what it is to be a book., the binding is unconventional, the printing,
being RISO, has an analog charme, and the finishing touch is the poem inside the
backboard of the book. By pressing a little gold sticker de vries himself reads a
poem to you, which is extremely silly but fun and made us laugh."
