Book Exchange Exhibition – Fold along the Lines
—
01-17.12.2023
Satellite Exhibitions, Fotobook DUMMIES Day, and Limestone Books
Limestone Books and Fotobook DUMMIES Day (Taipei) are collaborating to exchange a box of books and showcase them in both locations (Taipei and Maastricht).
This event is in Taiper physically, with the box from Maastricht.
“Fold Along the Lines” is an exchange book exhibition with Dutch bookstore Limestone Books and Fotobook DUMMIES Day. Limestone Books is the sole project space in the south of the Netherlands dedicated to art books. “Fold Along the Lines” showcases artist books crafted by artists hailing from these three neighbouring countries. These artists draw inspiration from their richly diverse surroundings and environments, delving into a wide range of themes, including local natural resources and the ever-evolving industrial landscapes, colonial legacies, life observations, and uniquely crafted handmade books.
The satellite exhibitions consist of “Fold Along the Lines”, “Wo Ai Wo Jia” and the solo exhibition “1LDK”, with Limestone Books (NLs) and abC Art Book Archive (CN) acting as curators, and artist Teikoukei creating new works to serve both a book and an exhibition. Taking off from different starting points of “space” – from the smallest unit of a “house” to the home (and its inverse – the away), to cities, and to imaginings around geopolitical implications – the three exhibitions explore the liminality of images, books and the physical space.
