A KIND OF A 'HUH?'* #2: DEBATE WITH DENNIS TYFUS, LUC DERYCKE AND SASKIA GEVAERT

What are artists' publications and what does one recognise them by? Bibliographers, librarians, archivists, and collection managers of visual arts museums are regularly confronted with this question.

At the request of the Middelheim Museum, artist Nico Dockx and art historian Johan Pas (from the ArchiVolt research group of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp) undertook a physical screening of the museum library's collection of monographic art books and artists' publications.

Through conversations with artists, designers, publishers, and collectors, they will examine the phenomenon of the artists' publication from various perspectives.
