<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>After endlessly hearing that the Onomatopee publications had a tactility not often found in current art publications, director freek Lomme decided to create an exhibition and catalog addressing the issue of printing today. The result was the hugely successful, palm- sized book that was jam-packed with information and ideas on the subject. Quickly sold out this informative book is once again in print. Included are six contemporary artists and eight international academics and authors in the field of graphic design, materiality, theory, and art, exploring how, in the digital age, our daily interaction with physical materials is greatly altered and how this affects us as humans. Developed in the context of fine book publishing, the project includes in-depth discussions of past printing and reproduction processes, including silkscreen, etching, Risograph, linocut, lithography, and letterpress. Images are limited, but texts are diverse with small reproductions accompanying the art and artist interviews. It is a fresh and rigorous conversation about the process and the art of bookmaking in the twenty-first century.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>What exactly is the tactile, in a world in which a rising technocracy exploits the designed environment we feel? Who authorizes and who writes, what tradition do we stand in and how can we touch base?</p><p>After endlessly hearing that Onomatopee publications have a materiality and tactility not often experienced in recent years, Onomatopee director and curator Freek Lomme decided to create an exhibition and publication addressing the issue of tactility and print today, accommodated by the Frans Masereel Centre and Z33. Presenting artists in the practice of making and thinkers in the development of thought here and now, we connect to tactile characteristics, guided by a specific focus on graphic, printed matter. The lasting result is a palm-sized book jam-packed with information and ideas on the subject. Six contemporary artists and eight international academics and authors in the field of graphic design, materiality, theory, and art explore how, in the digital age, our daily interaction with physical materials is greatly altered and how this affects us as humans.</p>
