Vleeshal at WIELS Art Book Fair 2023

On the weekend of March 18 and 19, Vleeshal was present at WIELS Art Book Fair. At this art book fair, independent publishers present their work. This annual event is free to enter and allows book lovers, collectors, artists and art professionals to discover a wide range of printed matter; from zines and artists' books to art catalogs and artists' editions.

On Saturday March 18 at 11:30am, we celebrated the release of Kaspar Müller's book, the latest book published by Vleeshal and BOM DIA BOA TARDE BOA NOITE. The book launch took place in the WIELS auditorium including a screening of Halleluja (2017), a video work by Kaspar Müller, and Q&A between the artist and Roos Gortzak, director of Vleeshal. Afterwards, there was a signing session.

Series

For decades Vleeshal is invested in the development of publications. Books published by Vleeshal are internationally appreciated for their experimental content and form. At Vleeshal, a publication is never 'merely' about documentation of a past exhibition, but rather about creating an 'extension' of an artistic project, generating meaning in the present, and thus allowing the project to live on after the exhibition.

Vleeshal publishes monographs, critical analyses, catalogues and books on artists who have exhibited at the Vleeshal. It works with international publishers and distributors, including Hatje Cantz, Walther König and Sternberg Press, to expand the reach of its independent and small-scale publications.
