Publiciteit finissage
Location: Parqiet, Het Park
Date: 12th of September, 4:30 – 7:00

Please join us this Sunday for the finissage of Publiciteit, which will take place in Het Park after our last (fully booked) guided tour of the exhibition. From 4:30 to 7:00 you are welcome to join us at Parqiet for a toast and the launch of the Publiciteit Catalogue. This catalogue, selling at a special launch price of €8,00 details all the works in and around the production of this illicit exhibition in public space.

It’s an extra special occasion as this is the last exhibition by Publication Studio Rotterdam and also the last collaboration between PSR and Isabelle Sully (curator, editor and all around creative engine), before PSR is closing her doors later this year. Truly the end of an era! So, please pop by to catch the last summer rays and to celebrate this moment with us this coming sunday.

It’s been a week since ‘Publiciteit’ opened to the public! To officially mark the occasion of its opening, the artists affixed a series of yellow plaques nearby their works. The plaques continue the identity of the posters and website as well as also providing a direct link to the audio guides available for each work. Çaglar Köseoglu’s work and accompanying plaque can be found at Heemraadsplein Square, .gers’ at the base of the Euromast and .pisano’s by the steel bridge opposite the Court of Rotterdam. We hope you’ve caught some glimpses of the project around Rotterdam, and if not we’ve included some sneak peaks here!

We’re so happy to be able to continue making and dispatching books, what with Yin Yin living above the studio and all. Due to Covid we limit ourselves to dispatching orders once every two weeks at a maximum during quarantine. This to limit our contact with local post-offices. We’re staying safe, we hope you are too ❤️

It’s as good a time as any to belatedly promote our first title of 2020: ‘Introverse Arrangements’ is dedicated to the work of Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt, and the first title in a new series called Unbidden Tongues, edited by Isabelle Sully.

Despite only recently garnering attention for her work, Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt is most known for a period of geometric and poetic typewriter drawings produced between the 1970s and 1990 while employed as an administrator for the German Democratic Republic. Following reunification, and the subsequent termination of her job, she ceased making art as she felt there was simply no need anymore.

To order check the link in our bio. Hope you’re all surrounded by some great books and keeping happy and healthy!
