Inhaltsangabe

A three-part book reflecting on exhibitions, time, display, and writing, taking an anthology of texts and interviews by designer and curator Prem Krishnamurthy as its starting point. Writings by Prem Krishnamurthy from 2009–2024 are framed by materials documenting two exhibition-like experiments: “K, A Year with P. Krishnamurthy” (KW Institute for Contemporary Art, 2018/2019) and “Endless Exhibition” (Kunsthal Gent, 2019–ongoing). Each section of the book is designed by a different designer or team―Ann Richter, David Knowles, Mark Foss and Valentijn Goethals―, giving the entire volume a sense of multiplicity. Taken together, “Past Words” looks at how design, curating, exhibition-making, and language itself can become formats for speculation and ways to create new realities.

Über diesen Titel

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Collected writings and collaborations from award-winning designer, artist, activist and curator Prem Krishnamurthy.

Based in Berlin and New York, designer and curator Prem Krishnamurthy (born 1977) is head of the artist group Department of Transformation and of the design consultancy Wkshps. In 2015 he was the recipient of the Cooper Hewitt's National Design Award for Communication Design. As both creator and curator, Krishnamurthy aims to discover "how art & design can be agents of transformation for individuals, communities and institutions." Here, his collected writings from 2009 to 2024 are framed by two exhibition-like experiments: A Year with Prem Krishnamurthy at the KW Institute for Contemporary Art and Endless Exhibition at the Kunsthal Gent.

Each section of the book is arranged by a different designer--Ann Richter, David Knowles, Mark Foss or Valentijn Goethals--giving the entire volume a sense of multiplicity. Taken together, Past Words looks at how design, curating, exhibition-making and language itself can create new realities.
