NewBridge Books
Martín La Roche will be joining us in NewBridge Books to share and talk about his publishing work, books and projects. Attendees will be invited to participate in a workshop lead by Martín that introduces his publishing and book-making practice. There will be a chance to ask questions about Martín’s work.
Refreshments and seating will be available.
Martín La Roche (Santiago Chile, 1988) studied Visual Arts at the University of Chile. He then completed a postgraduate program at the Jan Van Eyck Academie in The Netherlands. His practice explores the construction and modes of being of collections.
Martín is the co-founder of Good Neighbour, an artist book platform that makes an art in form of ‘words’. Good Neighbour aims to create a community of readers who share communal interest for books seen as performative tools.
Other notable projects include “To See the Inability to See”, a collective research project around ‘archive’ and ‘anarchive’. In 2017 Martín founded ‘Musée Légitime’, a museum that is based inside a hat.
