Small exhibition at the bookstore Torpedobok in Oslo which displays the first 10 publications chosen for a Norwegian catalogue for artistic publishing (Katalog.org). My artist book “I was (t)here” (2009) is part of the selection (https://www.helenesommer.net/i-was-there/).
Katalog for kunstnerisk publisering (Catalog for artistic publishing) documents important publications within artistic publishing from a Norwegian perspective. The purpose of the catalog is to highlight a type of publication that rarely receives the attention it deserves. The present pilot edition is the result of the first phase of a canon relay in which ten participants were invited to select three publications/publishing projects each for inclusion in the catalog. From these, the editorial team has chosen ten for the pilot, while the others will be added to an upcoming full-scale version. (translated from website, https://kunstenasirkulere.org/katalog/)
