Construction Storage Despatch: The Work of Martin Rogers by Coracle Press

Construction Storage Despatch: The Work of Martin Rogers by Coracle Press

"Martin Rogers, printer, sculptor, and publisher, was the exemplar of a condition that had become prevalent after the nineteen-sixties. He had moved the physical materials of his work to the production of multiple objects in printed form, to books and publication, eventually embracing the idea of publishing as the platform for the work. At the same time, in the way he avoided the side-track, even the cul-de-sac, of the so-called artists book, he becomes emblematic of that repositioning. With his book we attempt to site this as a different model. The work moves from its Construction through Storage to its Despatch into world as Publication." - Coracle

Contents include "From Construction to Publication" essay by Simon Cutts; three essays ("Construction," "Storage," "Despatch") by John Bevis; a section on RGAP (Research Group for Artists Publications) with inventory of books and editions, collaborations, exhibitions and events; and closing essay ("bagatelle") by Simon Cutts.
