Abstract

Reading by Osmosis. Nature Interprets Man' shows works of art that are not made by human hands: an overgrown fence, an underwater video and a battered disco ball. The makers? Ivy, an octopus and time. If we acknowledge that animals and plants, too, can 'read' the world and interpret and 'artistically' transform it, is the traditional opposition between culture and nature still tenable? Sema Bekirovic does not identify with the image of artists as lonely geniuses. Rather, she places little value on her own contribution to her work and shares her authorship with coots, warmth or light. Reading by Osmosis is the provisional high point of this process. As a rule, the intention and the autonomy of a maker are inextricably linked to their artistry. Reading by Osmosis raises the question of whether making art is a process as unintentional and plantlife-like as, for example, osmosis. The book includes the essay 'On Art as Planetary Metabolism', in which philosopher Michael Marder expounds his theory about the artist as a plant (and vice versa) in a surprising way.

Abstract

Who authorises and who writes, what tradition do we stand in and how can we touch base? What exactly is the tactile, in a world in which a rising technocracy exploits the designed environment we feel?

After endlessly hearing that Onomatopee publications have a materiality and tactility not often experienced in recent years, Onomatopee director Freek Lomme decided to create an exhibition and publication addressing the issue of tactility and print today.

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.
