Artist book aa - to be pronounced as if the doctor asks you to open your mouth - is published by RETOUR. In book aa we see a tale of objects and drawings whose main occupation is to search for the meaning of life. The book knows seven chapters, each representing a different state of being. Every chapter starts with the picture of a sculpture. The sculptures are - each in their own way - the title of a chapter. A call to the drawings to remain alert for physical reality. A warning to the drawn figures not to get lost in dream images. In this way the book is a conversation between drawn ideas and sculpted material.
