“A six metre long sculpture” is a hybride artist’s book, due to the addition of an essay by Hans Theys on the last 12 pages. For an artist’s book, that is a considerable part contributed by a third party.

The first part of the booklet starting on the couver depicts empty pages with a continuous red and blue scribbling at the bottom of each page. The total length is six meters, hence the sudden cut-off by means of a vertical line at the back of the booklet.

…That same intensity of being addressed I felt when I saw the cassette tape of Aernout Mik in 1992. Especially the accompanying title “Object to leave behind in trains” lifted me an inch off the ground. A wonderful purifying plan: get rid of objects by letting others find them.”
Kees van Gelder, in catalogue ‘When artists form ideas’, 2021, Parts Project, The Hague, Netherlands.

‘The idea is that the owner of “Object to leave behind in trains” leaves this item in a train’. Talk with Arnout Mik in Bunnik (NL) on 22 March 2024.

“Miks beelden zijn vaak nogal hermetisch waardoor ze iets zelfingenomens krijgen, maar bij dit werk is dat minder het geval. Op en onder een tafel staan een groot aantal voorwerpen: een enorm blik tonijn, een glazen potje met afgeknipte nagels, een papieren zak met een blikje Budweiser-bier. De titel maakt dat je het beeld gemakkelijk voor je ziet: het nagelpotje staande op het koffieplankje naast het raam – wie zou dat hebben achtergelaten en waarom? De groene legertas vol flessen azijn tegenover je op de lege bank in de trein naar Schiphol.” Hans den Hartog Jager, ‘De Utrechtse School’, NRC Handelsblad, 14 februari 1997.

On the occasion of the new space at Herengracht 259, an exhibition with posters/flyers of Allen Kaprow and an exhibition of Tom Ockerse Editions took place simultaneously. Ulises Carrión told me thta he was very proud he got hold on a more than a decent amount of printed matter related to Allen Kaprow.

DAVID HORVITZ, Untitled (la Grande Salinette), 2023 [postcard with glued on sand]

Plage la Grande Salinette is a popular seaside resort with a view on the bay of Saint-Briac-sur-Mer in France. The owners of publishing house More Publishers invited David Horvitz to make a postcard for a next edition. He came up with the idea to glue beach sand of that resort on a card. Hence the above postcard “Untitled (la Grande Salinette)” that was produced on the spot.

The back of the card mentions ‘From a distance…” that refers to a series of postcards that the publishers Tim Ryckaert and Amélie Laplanche have started to issue in 2023. Every time when they stay in Saint-Briac-sur-Mer (France) they may launch a new edition produced on the spot. Hence the name of this series that alludes with the fact that a plan is proposed by an artist and carried out from a distance…, while the publishing house is located in Belgium.
