Abstract

Roma Publications is an independent editorial project founded in 1998 by Dutch graphic designer Roger Willems and artist Mark Manders. Based in Amsterdam, Roma Publications has been expanding in an informal and dynamic way as a platform for the production of autonomous publications, in close collaboration with a growing number of artists, designers, curators & writers.

With Roma Publications, Manders and Willems have defined their own territory, one  which fuses art, design and curatorship. Each of the 112 publications to date has its own rule of appearance with meticulous consideration give to content, typography, layout, and production.

This exhibition focuses on the convergence of art and design and will assemble over 100 objects including artist books, newspapers, catalogues, posters, prints, postcards and audio/visual projections. [gallery media]
