The artist’s booklet “Moving Objects in Rose Madder” by Marion Ritzmann Ritzmann is published as part of the series “Fortsetzung folgt” (to be continued), an open sequence of individual publications, which are connected and contextualized through the artist’s website as an integral part of the project.
On 16 pages, the booklet shows details of photographs from the installation of the same name. On display are white chalk lines on the grey-black primed floor, the traces and drawings left by the objects being moved by the exhibition visitors. If we are holding the artist’s booklet in our hands, however, this fact remains hidden to us for the moment; the drawings are available without comment, leaving us free to view and interpret them. If we follow the bit-link on the title page, we reach the corresponding entry on the artist’s website, where we find documentary visual material on the installation and a description of the work.
