‘Q' was created at the beginning of the pandemic in the spring of 2020, during the walks that artist Jasper Krabbé took through a largely deserted Amsterdam. With his sketchbook at the ready, he walked along an empty Dam Square, Vondelpark, deserted canals and empty streets with the occasional vagrant and spotting shadows of people behind their windows. Jasper painted what he saw, dreaming of things that were no longer possible. ‘Q' is a visual diary, made at a historical moment when the world was on hold.
This special edition is an exact copy of Jasper's sketchbook. Printed with modern printing techniques on handmade watercolour paper, the facsimile can hardly be distinguished from the original sketchbook.

Book
Who are you really, when you cannot hide behind your clothes or your appearance? What remains when the mask disappears? This is what photographer and artist Richard Westerhuis investigates in his experimental portrait series Rubber Identity, Through The Second Skin and Whanganui.
Since 2016, Richard Westerhuis has been portraying his models in all their freedom and vulnerability. Out of their comfort zone, without clothes or appearance. He examines their true identity and consequently touches the core of the individual. Because, who are you really and how much of yourself do you show to others?
‘Unfolding Ambiguity' is central to the work of Richard Westerhuis and led to the title of his book. The beautiful photo book shows us an overview of his six conceptual portrait series that have been exhibited both nationally and internationally and have received multiple awards (including Best Photography Award, Visual Art Open in 2018 / National Award, Sony World Photography Awards in 2019).
"As an art photographer, the best way to convey my message is not a single photograph, but a series. A whole series around one underlying theme ensures the most powerful the message."
- Richard Westerhuis

In the photo book 'Paradise', photographer Ruben van Schalm takes us along in his vision of paradise. This personal voyage of discovery was a journey of introspection, a path laid with shaky pebbles, but nevertheless essential for him.
Years of research, journeys and collaborations with like-minded individuals have shaped what the book now reveals to us: an artistic force that found its calling in the representation of the relationship between man and nature.
With an introduction by Erwin Olaf and an essay by Marth von Loeben.

Due to great success of the limited edition and the unlimited edition, together with designer Marcel Wanders we are now releasing a special edition of 'Rijks, Masters of the Golden Age'.
‘Rijks, Masters of the Golden Age’ brings us eye to eye with sixty-four 17th century Dutch masterpieces from the Rijksmuseum’s prestigious Gallery of Honour. The paintings are reproduced in great detail and leading contemporary critical thinkers, such as Erwin Olaf, David Allen, Angela Missoni and Jimmy Nelson, explain how their perception of the world has been influenced by these famous works of art. This book is in both content and form a true tribute to the masterpieces.
The special edition of 'Rijks, Masters of the Golden Age' has the same size as the limited edition. In this edition, however, the book is composed of two softcover volumes that are contained within a hardcover slipcase.
