Antonis Pittas | finissage and book signing

Annet Gelink Gallery is pleased to invite you to an afternoon with Antonis Pittas on the last day of his solo exhibition paraesthesia, on Saturday April 15, 2-4pm.

On this occasion, you are welcome to bring your copy of his book jaune, geel, gelb, yellow. Monochrome, that was recently selected for the Best Dutch Book Designs of 2022, for the artist to sign. The book will be also available to purchase at the gallery.

This book, published in conjunction with the exhibition jaune, geel, gelb, yellow. Act on modernism with Antonis Pittas and Theo van Doesburg at Centraal Museum, Utrecht, 2021, discusses the failure, collapse and historicization of the modernist ideals espoused by Theo van Doesburg, set against the current political backdrop of mass protest. It reflects on the failing of modernity, with contributions by authors from the field of art history, architecture, philosophy, anthropology, sociology and poetry.

 

Published by Jap Sam Book. With text contributions by Maria Barnas, I.K. Bonset, Laurie Cluitmans, Johan F. Hartle, Dirk van den Heuvel, Bram Ieven, Bruno Latour, Thalia Ostendorf, Bart Rutten, Doris Wintgens.
