Ground & Figure, Figure & Ground
This is a remarkable and extensive monograph on the work of the Dutch artist and sculptor Marien Schouten (b. 1956, NL). Like a director, the artist was in complete control of the creative process, from the composition and autobiographical structure of the texts to the graphic design and layout of the book. This makes 'Ground & Figure, Figure & Ground' a comprehensive overview, and a unique encounter with the artist. With text contributions by Hans Janssen, Ulrich Loock, Ernst van Alphen, and Marien Schouten. 'Increasingly I accepted the impulses of intuition to direct my choices. I see it as the artist’s role to make the subconscious less opaque, to slightly alter its borders and make them porous. One way of familiarizing yourself with a motif which meaning you don’t fully understand, is repetition. A motif, when repeated in different contexts and combined with other motifs or performed in various media, accumulates its own history. Each repetition reveals the motif’s characteristics in a new light. Over time, the motif becomes more familiar and articulated. The need to analyze its origin becomes less, it has become a new reality.' - Marien Schouten

Geert Lap Specific Objects
Thanks to his great technical know-how and boundless craftmanship, the Dutch ceramicist Geert Lap (1951-2017) left an oeuvre that is cherished around the world in many museums and private collections. This book is the result of a unique photo project. Erik and Petra Hesmerg spent years travelling the world to document Geert Lap’s work. They were granted exclusive access to the homes of private collectors and their photographs bear witness to the diverse and sometimes astonishing combinations the collectors created to exhibit Lap’s work in their homes. Geert Lap – Specific Objects also includes highly detailed, full-page photographs that show the prominent position accorded to Lap’s oeuvre in the collections of major Dutch museums. Access to the artist’s private archive was given to Titus M. Eliëns. His biographical essay provides a penetrating insight into the life and work of this perfectionist pur sang, who devoted his life to the consummate ceramic form. Geert Lap. Specific Objects is completed with contributions by Ernst van Alphen and Jac Geurts.

Geert Lap Specific Objects
Dankzij zijn grote technische kennis en het onbegrensde vakmanschap heeft de Nederlandse keramist Geert Lap (1951-2017) een oeuvre nagelaten dat wereldwijd gekoesterd wordt in menig museumcollectie en privéverzameling. Aan de basis van dit boek ligt de fotografie van Erik en Petra Hesmerg. Jarenlang reisden zij de wereld over om de werken van Geert Lap vast te leggen en kregen daarbij exclusieve toegang tot de interieurs van privéverzamelaars. Hun namen staan in dit boek en de foto’s getuigen van de diverse en soms verbazingwekkende combinaties waarin zij het werk van Lap thuis exposeren. Daarnaast toont Geert Lap – Specific Objects in paginagrote foto’s met bijzonder veel oog voor detail hoe het oeuvre van Lap is opgenomen in de grote Nederlandse museumcollecties. Titus M. Eliëns kreeg toegang tot het privéarchief van de kunstenaar en geeft met zijn biografische verhandeling een indringende inkijk in het leven en werk van deze perfectionist pur sang, die zijn leven wijdde aan het vervolmaken van de keramische vorm. Invloedrijke figuren uit de wereld van de internationale keramiek, onder wie met name Benno Premsela en Garth Clark, groeien uit tot pleitbezorgers van het kleurrijke en verstilde werk van Geert Lap. Geert Lap – Specific Objects ontleent zijn titel aan het essay van Ernst van Alpen, dat het werk van Lap met de term ‘specifiek object’ in de traditie van de grote minimalistische kunstenaars plaatst.
