What you’re holding is not a book, but a possibility. An exhibition (DRAFT for a Joint Retrospective) turned into a book (Career Collage), which can become an exhibition again (Perjovschi)...
You can make it at home, if you tear out the poster-pages and install them creatively in your space... A few, all of them, front side, back side, grouped on a wall, scattered around the living room, balcony, or toilet.
However you like. However you dare...
Now you’re the curator.
You can frame them too, but some masking tape rolled up and stuck in the four corners is cooler. More experimental.
You’ll have an exhibition, but you’ll be left without a book...
Good luck! (Dan Perjovschi)
