To mark the first UK show of artist Henri Barande Stolberg created a monograph Henri Barande: The Work Beyond with 4,000 different covers published by Booth-Clibborn Editions. The concept for the cover is based on the artists own approach of how to hang his work. When Stolberg met Henri in his Lausanne studio, he noticed the artist’s specific hanging technique, collating various paintings – each around 2m high – into huge collages covering the entire wall. There could be no single, seminal painting that represented his portfolio.

A book design project initially, the concept changed quite quickly to  a more challenging project involving typedesign, algorithms and exhibition design. Stolberg asked SchultzSchultz from Frankfurt to join the project.
