Common Knowledge
I’m a massive fan of Will Holder, especially his F. R. David publication (which I recently went to the launch of the latest one in Amsterdam).
“Holder’s work reflects on the relationship between language and design, positioning language as a kind of conceptual structure at its heart. As a designer writer and editor, Holder’s practice encompasses print and publication design, events and also performances. He, for example, organised the TOURETTE’S evenings at Amsterdam’s W139 artspace and at the De Appel Foundation. He has written for the periodical dot-dot-dot and publishes the magazine Catalogue. He is the designer and editor of the periodical F. R. David published by De Appel.
For On Purpose Holder is presenting the latest in a series of projects that relate to his own personal library of books from his home/studio. For the full duration of the exhibition he will be participating in a residency in France, meaning he will be living away from his London home temporarily. Holder has proposed to re-site his library of publications to the Arnolfini, and to put his books to use by setting up a functioning lending library. His publications archive will be available for reference and borrowing to all visitors, offering new potential for this source material.”

Really interested in this project he is working on called Common Knowledge.
“Will Holder is presenting a project using his own personal library of books from his home/studio.”
Check out his library here.
I have noticed that my friend Phil Baber has a book in his library.
