Gerlach En Koop - :
ROMA Publications 2019 ISBN 9789492811516 Acqn 29786
Pb 18x18cm 376pp col ills £32.50

This book follows the exhibition ':' by gerlach en koop. Invited by curator Paula van den Bosch, in
2016 they delved deeply into the collection of the Bonnefantenmuseum. It also traces the
catalogue 'cubics' (1970) by architect-designers Slothouber and Graatsma, which serves as
support for the artworks in print, just like their system of blocks supported the artworks in the
show. All exhibited works are included, plus several anonymous objects of different provenances
and times. Interestingly, the book contains a lengthy interview with the artists by a redacted
ghostwriter. With works by Francis Alys, Marcel Broodthaers, Joseph Beuys, Agnes Martin, Lily
van der Stokker, and more.

Marinus Boezem - Into The Air

ROMA Publications 2019 ISBN 9789492811615 Acqn 29787
Hb 23x31cm 112pp col ills £44.50

The solo exhibition by Marinus Boezem at Amsterdam's Oude Kerk in 2016 presented the largest
number of new works by the Dutch conceptual artist in many years. A certain levity is typical of
his work, for which he often makes use of intangible elements such as wind, air, and
transparency. His love of Gothic architecture is related to the notion that cathedrals embody our
desire to fly, to leave earthly things behind. The exhibition centres on the idea of verticality and
offers a new perspective on Boezem's oeuvre, allowing us to reinterpret his historical works
through the prism of his most recent projects. With text contributions by Nathalie Zonnenberg,
Lorenzo Bruni, and others.

Paulien Oltheten – Non

ROMA Publications 2019 ISBN 9789492811585 Acqn 29801
Pb 20x25cm 84pp col ills £22.50

Visual artist Paulien Oltheten presents a work in book form, inspired by a graffito found in the Les
Olympiades area (13th arrondissement) in Paris. The area appealed to her because of its lively
social dynamics set against the backdrop of utopian modernist architecture from the 1960s. The
book consists of a series of photographs of people walking past the roughly spray-painted word
"non" (no), as well as an audio transcript in which the random passers-by give the word new
meanings. With her camera and microphone, Oltheten playfully explores what happens when this
compact statement is taken from a concrete wall and allowed to travel freely between the social
and the political.
