’K – Karl Holmqvist

Gerstner-Programm FSL in use throughout the artist’s book 'K by Karl Holmqvist, published by JRP|Editions.

'K from Karl Holmqvist (born 1960 in Västerås, lives and works in Berlin and Stockholm) explores different levels of textual interaction with art. Both as concrete poems or language ‘drawings’, in which words and letters come to form patterns, and through repetitions somewhere between sense and non-sense, figuration and abstraction. (…) It is published as a joint collaboration on the occasions of the ‘solstice readings’ at Kunsthalle Zürich and a newly commissioned installation at Bergen Kunsthall.” — JRP Editions
