Willem de Rooij - Residual - Köning 2012

Willem de Rooij's artist book accompanies his installation "Residual" at Bentheim castle that was produced as contribution to the sculpture project Raumsichten at the Kunstwegen Open Museum. "Residual" consists of an entirely transparent display case that presents Jacob van Ruisdael's view of Bentheim Castle from the North-West (c. 1655) and a number of apparatuses that maintain its conservational requirements. The artist book takes up the tension between object and frame, concrete matter and immaterial structures that define de Rooij's installation. 
Introduction by Dirck Möllmann.
