Our Volumes - Magali Reus

Our Volumes is a comprehensive catalogue based on a recent mid-career retrospective of Magali Reus at the Museum Kurhaus Kleve, Germany (2024). Structured around seven chapters, the book chronicles or "volumes" by employing an archival aesthetic. It features a highly insightful and elaborate newly commissioned essay by Evan Moffitt on Reus' work at Museum Kurhaus Kleve.

In addition to expansive exhibition views, the book engages in dialogue with photographic imagery drawn from the Museum Kurhaus Kleve's noted historical collection. This includes items such as ancient religious woodcarvings, ornate silverware and artist Ewald Mataré's (1887-1965, GER) sculpture, which can be found contrastingly paired alongside the artist's careful selection of over a hundred works spanning a period of two decades.
