Karel Martens – Motion

Published as part of Motion, an exhibition by Dutch artist and graphic designer Karel Martens at Kunstverein München, this book is the seventh instalment of the Companion series produced by the Kunstverein and Roma Publications. With concept and design by Julie Peeters, the greater part of the books content is derived from the video Not for Resale, a sequence of photographs of the array of images and objects found on the artists studio wall, taken in 2000. Material from two other videos, Lost & Found (2004) and Tol (2008), is also included, along with a transcription of a conversation between Martens and Chris Fitzpatrick, director of the Kunstverein.
