This A-Z "memoir about art publishing" celebrates the ten-year anniversary of JRP|Ringier, created in 2004 by Swiss art curator Lionel Bovier and Ringier AG owner Michael Ringier. With 632 books and 1,800 authors published, 20,000 printing hours, 4,000 tons of books transported and one million sold, JRP|Ringier continues to work collaboratively with contemporary artists to produce carefully curated, high-quality publications. The book goes from A for Art Publisher and B for Books to Y for Yellowpress and Z for Zombie Books ("projects that are in the state of non-death: they are not officially stopped, so they weigh on you, on your program's list, being revived every now and then by someone who does not want them to die, without being able to make them exist") and is illustrated with images of signings and on-press scenes. This volume is published in the Hapax series.
