The Publications Project: Since 4 years the Dutch Art Institute Masters Program offers its graduating students to produce a small publication, in collaboration with Werkplaats Typografie in Arnhem. This project is mediated by the artist/curator Delphine Bedel. Each publication is edited in 250 copies. The publication varies from printed matter, book, and artist edition to performance artefact.
