Georg_Trakl

a book of selected poems by Georg Trakl
hand-made book, 2002

I encountered the name of Georg Trakl (1887-1914, Austria) while reading Heidegger essay “Language”. Trakl’s poetry became a great inspiration for me. Also I always had an affection for German expressionists, especially Die Brücke group. I produced and pressed
a number of cardboard-cuts, 12 pieces 17.5x30 cm each, and 25 pieces 8x13 cm each; the book was self-produced on a b/w laser printer and hand-stitched.
