4 éditeurs : Imschoot uitgevers, mfc-michèle didier, Yellow Now, Yves Gevaert

This volume presents the Mariemont Royal Museum's exhibition of work by four publishing houses based in Belgium but international in scope : Imschoot, uitgevers (Ghent), mfc-michèle didier (Brussels), Yellow Now (Liège) et Yves Gevaert (Brussels). These publishers are particularly known for their work with major contemporary artists on 'artists' books', and for publishing books on the arts in general. Thus they have published artists' books by Carl Andre, Robert Barry, Marcel Broodthaers, Daniel Buren, Peter Downsbrough, On Kawara, Annette Messager, Jacques Louis Nyst, Lawrence Weiner and many more. This volume includes a complete catalogue for each publishing house, interviews with the publishers, an appreciation of the Mariemont Royal Museum's previous experience with artists' books and a forward by AA Bronson, director of the celebrated Printed Matter bookshop in New York.
