“How could you ruin a photographer’s album like this?” The answer is, the photographer needs it that way.

It is a book of a violent form. Personal letter like book with saddle stitching is inserted with a section sewn photo album, to convey the meaning of “a green, immature and wavering stance”.

Albums we made for artists typically fall into two types: a book without design, which focuses on works themselves; and something associated with the book and its contents, helping to express what the artist means for his/her works, a result of synergy. It is up to the artist’s choice.
“怎么能给一个摄影师的画册做成这样呢?”,因为陈哲需要。

一本形式上暴力的书,骑马订的手札中插入了锁线装的摄影画册,得以保留的是“青涩、不成熟立场摇摆”。我们给艺术家做画册的方式通常有两种:一种是书,不做设计,注重作品本身;还有一种,是书和内容关联,对展览或作品或艺术家的表达有辅助作用,一同前进。我们尊重艺术家本人的选择。
