Art Vandelay

Art Vandelay is a publishing project that focuses on exploring the ideas of archive and collection, more precisely the accumulation and loss of information over time. Each issue of the AV project is composed of a zine and a tape, both of which display the work of a single artist. In those works the final object functions as a means to dignify a content that was previously discarded or lost: the artist is empowered to act as their own historian and to search through their archives for older material. AV aims at publishing emerging artists employing mediums that are generally underrepresented in print such as performance, video, installation or sculpture.
