This Week – Issues 1,2 and 3. Sealed set.

They say print and newspaper are an obsolete and dying form of media. This Week is an art paper reanimating elements of the press. Reflecting on the conditions of this traditional industry This Week uses and abuses forms and issues of newspapers. Each issue is made by a different artist. So far Felix Weigand and Kasper Andreasen have dealt with headlines and comic strips. ‘Quarter Report I – Men With Ties’ is the title for Alon Levins new issue of This Week.

Science Poems By: Anni Puolakka and Jenna Sutela from OK Do.

Following the traditional mindset of science fiction, OK Do’s Science Poems project explores the poetry and multi-sensorial aesthetics of science rather than its functionality and logic. This summer, on June 4–6, 2010, it brought together a group of designers and artists for an exhibition at 0fr gallery and bookstore. The weekend also saw the launch of the Science Poems book which explores the topic through images and texts by us and the people around us. The book and the exhibition are now travelling around the world – the latest Science Poems party took place in Helsinki on July 10 at Napa Gallery.

Treating of matters which he who reads will see, and he who listens to them, when read, will hear.

Treating of matters is a collaborative project which aims to investigate how history influences our practice as designers.

It was produced in London, at the Royal College of Art’s Hockney Gallery. Product designers Will Shannon and Kieren Jones helped transform the gallery into an hybrid exhibition-production space that allowed the public to witness first hand the several stages in the making of a publication. Risograph was the printing technology of choice, for its cost efficiency in small print runs (250 copies) and user friendliness.

With works by Pedro Cid Proença, David Crowley, Alexandre Dumas de Rauly, Sara De Bondt, Sophie Demay, Afonso Duarte, Marine Duroselle, Sophie Dutton, Jules Estèves, Mick Farren, Maël Fournier-Comte, Lola Halifa-Legrand, Angelina Li, Will Holder, Richard Hollis, Yi Lin Juliana Ong, Savage Pencil, François Rappo, Adrian Rifkin, Marsha Rowe, Michel Wlassikoff.
