The Thinking Foot is a study of history and associations. In method and form it claims to be no more (nor less) than an illustrated essay on the architectural expression of surface. It concentrates on the Earth on which we walk: not the Earth in depth (the underground world) nor the geological Earth, but simply the Earth as visible crust, as surface.
by Thomas A P Van Leeuwen, edited by Helen I. Jessup, design by Joseph Plateau Grafisch Ontwerpers / Eliane Beyer, published by Les Éditions du Malentendu.
Official launch on November 15th at the Vasari Huis of the Vrije Academie in Amsterdam.
RSVP by sending an e-mail with 'RSVP' as subject to news@japsambooks.nl

'In recent years, the practices of artists in non-artistic environments have set my mind in motion. Where before I could marvel at the visual outcomes of the artistic process and would want to understand how processes of creating meaning could be described, I am now particularly struck by the way in which artists are present, by their way of looking, how they make decisions, when and how they act, how they take responsibility. I have conversations with them and ask questions to better understand their processes, and I explore literature to find people with a similar quest. This process of moving and being moved lies at the heart of the book The Artistis Attitude - Anke Coumans
By Anke Coumans, i.c.w. Hans van Driel, design by MARK IT ZERO.
Official launch on November 9th.
An initiative of Anke Coumans, Professor Image in Context, Minerva Art Academy, Hanze University of Applied Sciences Groningen.
