  New publications

  Fetched: 12-February-2012, 8:01am CET

  Alongside its exhibitions and its artists-in-residency programme, Casino Luxembourg ? Forum d'art contemporain regularly publishes catalogues and artists' books relating to its artistic programme. In 2011, new publications, whether monographs or collective catalogues, were thus released. Rather than mere documentation about the exhibitions, these publications are complementary to the projects as they provide a platform for concepts and collaborations that did not find a place in the exhibitions themselves.
