Mit einer prägnanten grafischen Gestaltung und zahlreichen Illustrationen wirft der Band einen frischen Blick auf das vielseitige Werk des Designkollektivs Metahaven. Das Kollektiv arbeitet erst seit kurzem mit dem bewegten Bild. Die Textbeiträge beleuchten, ob Metahaven den soziopolitischen Herausforderungen der Gegenwart, aber auch der Bildwissenschaft und Kunstgeschichte verpflichtet ist.

Recognisably and fearlessly designed by Metahaven and densely illustrated, this uniquely original and experimental publication offers a fresh perspective on Metahaven´s exceptional and versatile practice by offering reflections on how to understand the collective's work within a broader context, as well as by zooming in on their recent shift to moving image work. It will offer as-yet unpublished reflections on their practice by renowned and compelling voices, thinking through the various ways in which their sprawling body of work is embedded in the socio-political challenges of today, as well as in visual culture and art history.

Metahaven is an Amsterdam-based collective lead by Vinca Kruk (born, Leiden 1980) and Daniel van der Velden (born, Rotterdam 1971) their work crosses over between filmmaking, art, research, and design. They have produced documentarybased works, music videos, writings, publications, and lectures that investigate notions of propaganda, truth, and identity, especially with regard to the structuring of our symbolic realm.
