LaLaLa engels

This is a collage having a savage look about it, however, a precise collage of observations and perceptions, pieces of work and intimate experiences with regard to those peculiar crawling symbols we call letters and how these, providing that they are properly ordered, may build bridges from the author’s hand to the reader’s head. In this book Hammer’s texts, thoughts and anecdotes find a place next to concerted actions in pictures and text with artists Jill Magid (USA), Connie Dekker (NL), letter designer Yara Khoury (Beirut), sound poet Jaap Blonk and designer Katinka Neyen (D) and many more. You will find a verse by poet K. Michel (NL), a recipe for bread by graphic designer Charles Melcher (USA) and a contribution by letter curator David Shields (USA).
