For the solo exhibition of Lienhard von Monkiewitsch, “Überräume” at Städtisches Museum Braunschweig, Studio von Monkiewitsch produced the accompanying catalogue, providing an overall view of his work. The artist’s abstract, concrete paintings open up mental spaces by reflecting physical spaces. Both the artworks and the retrospective approach of the exhibition required a sharp, formally reduced layout that leaves room for the works themselves. Additionally, the cover makes the catalogue an artistic object on its own; a black gradient screen print on a transparent PVC jacket designed by the artist. It closely interlinks art practice with text content and invites the reader to experience the book visually as well as tactilely. The 176-page catalogue is published by Wienand Verlag.
