Résumé:
This fiction, a collaboration between Kasper Andreasen and Louis Lüthi, takes as its starting point the painter Alexander Cozens’s publication 'A New Method of Assisting the Invention in Drawing Original Compositions of Landscape' (1785). Set one morning in an empty gallery and told from the point of view of a man who installs exhibitions for a living, 'The Preparator' combines text and image in a series of compact, associative tableaus, each revolving around a landscape: a title page, an eighteenth-century ink drawing, the network of cracks in a ceiling, a walk along the Rhine, a satellite photograph, Thomas Bernhard holding forth in a private garden, and others.

Résumé:
This catalogue documents both the artworks and the almost 300 books on view at an eponymous exhibition at the Mechelen Cultural Centre. Featuring works by Jan Kempenaers, Kasper Andreasen, Aglaia Konrad, Ria Pacquée, Simon Popper, Mitja Tušek, and more, the artistic positions are set against an exhibition design conceived by Kris Kimpe and Koenraad Dedobbeleer, a kind of communal archive that systematically displays a selection of contemporary artists’ books. The works closely relate to the codex of the book as a medium for artistic expression, as well as to the different gestures of reproduction that are representative of artists working in various media.

Résumé:
The work of Brussels-based artist Kasper Andreasen encompasses drawing, printed matter and map-making, with a focus on the relationship between the gestures of drawing and writing. This is a companion volume to the installation ‘Writing Over’, which was shown in summer 2012 at Netwerk, in Aalst. Andreasen’s drawings, rendered in various types of drawing marks, are based on landscape photographs, medieval maps, and notations. These are accompanied by a study of writing and drawing surfaces used in the cartographic process – sketches, stamps, engraving plates – and a short story by Louis Lüthi, entitled “Unalaska Alaska”, written specially for this book.
