An artist’s practice arranged in ten folders

Presented in a box, this artist’s book gathers eight years of Katerina Šedá’s project documentation across ten folders. Diagrams, graphs, drawings, texts, photographs and questionnaires offer several ways into work built around interventions near her hometown of Ponětovice and in Prague. The projects grow from research into behavior and communication in both art and non-art communities, with attention to the social relationships and contexts surrounding the people involved. The book’s varied documents make the projects’ research and materials part of the subject, not just a record of finished work.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in contemporary and conceptual art
  • Readers curious about socially situated art projects and research methods
  • Readers who enjoy artist’s books organized through documents and visual materials

Book overview

This well designed artist's book in a box is Prague-based Katerina Seda's first. Ten folders contain eight years worth of documentation from her conceptually based work in the form of diagrams, graphs, drawings, texts, photographs and questionnaires. Seda, who was born in 1977 in the Moravian village of Ponetovice, stages interventions near her home town and in Prague, her current base. Through research into behavior and communication patterns in art and non-art communities, Seda--whose work was included in 2007's Documenta XII--creates projects based on the contexts and social relationships between the individuals around her.
