1 The artist book Kinderen is part of a collection of artist books created for the occasion of Marks of Honour – A Striking Library, initiated as a homage to the photobook per se by Amsterdam based gallery van Zoetendaal Collections and Cologne bookseller Markus Schaden.
Kinderen
For the exhibition Marks Of Honour – A Striking Library (2005), 45 international photographers were invited to choose a photobook which was influential to the formation of their work, and to pay it artistical homage.
For this project I substituted the original pictures of the 1930’s book Kinderen by Paul Eipper with found images from other old books, and designed it a new dust cover.
