Publication Studio

Also known as
Publication Studio Rotterdam

Description

PS Rotterdam was started in 2015 by designer Yin Yin Wong and artist Micha Zweifel. At the time, it was housed in Het Nieuwe Instituut, the Museum of Design, Architecture and Digital Culture. While there, the studio functioned as an open workshop and publisher, generating titles and holding many events within the studio space at the museum. In January 2017, the studio moved to its own store front in Rotterdam North to focus more heavily on being a print-on-demand self-organised studio. The studio provides printing, design and editing services alongside commissioning its own titles, which primarily focus on working with artists who wouldn’t otherwise have the means to publish their work. Isabelle Sully has since joined the team as editor, and the studio has started to explore other concurrent forms of ‘publishing’, like exhibition making, public events, social sculptures and workshops, often working in collaboration with other arts organisations and institutions.
