Meet the first photobook to be published by FOTODOK! ‘Pass It On. Private Stories, Public Histories’ is a follow up to the group-exhibition of the same name in which five contributing artists - Inge Meijer, Lebohang Kganye, Marianne Ingleby, Pablo Lerma and Yara Jimmink - present their ongoing photographic projects that address family archives. The biggest challenge? Supporting both the individuality of the photographers as well as maintaining the collectivity of the initial group show.
To do justice to the self-standing projects on the one hand and their combination on the other hand, we designed a set of unbound posters. The publication can be read as a book, but the posters also invite readers to be creative and compose a small exhibition at home. The result is a very special publication, which is an object in its own right. While deciding upon the publication’s form, we also considered the environment: a silkscreened box case is simultaneously the work’s cover and its mailing package.
As the show unfortunately happend mostly during the Covid lockdown, the publication allows the projects an audience at home, making sure these (his)stories are being passed on…
