Product detailed description
The limited edition catalogue for the exhibition READ at Kunsthalle Praha (2023–2024) consists of 30 signed and numbered copies, each accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The catalogue is housed in an original case resembling a book, featuring a leather spine and marbled cover. It closes magnetically and can be easily lifted out with its red silk ribbon. Every spine bears a hand-written title by the artists.
READ marks Elmgreen & Dragset’s first major presentation in the Czech Republic. The exhibition explores the relationship between books and art, reflecting on our connection to physical books and knowledge in the digital age. The gallery installations include sculptures, performances, videos, collages, and paintings, while the catalogue presents curatorial essays and expert texts in English on topics ranging from Czech samizdat history to contemporary challenges of freedom of speech in the digital era. This richly illustrated volume documents the dynamic interplay of language, books, and art at the heart of the project.
