Of things and men: a trilogy

Dirk Slootmaekers 

Set including all three books by Dirk Slootmaekers, spanning his work from 2011 till 2017. 

Dirk Slootmaekers (1962-2017) documented and re-arranged the body of work he made between 2011 and 2017 in several artist books. Originally small scale, printed and bound at home, as was his standard practice. Later Dirk wanted to make these documents more widely available, which led to the publications you can find here. During his last months, he supervised the whole project and corrected the colour proofs of the last two volumes. Dirk passed away a few days after his books were printed and bound.
