Excerpt from the front-flap text by editor Melanie Ohnemus:

"This publication is the first monograph dedicated to the work of Marlie Mul. It brings together a generous chronological overview of her artistic production and unfolds as a dense field of relations between works, formats, moments, and collaborations that have evolved from the early 2000s until today.

The book opens with an extended visual sequence that focuses on the character of the works themselves and on making visible the development of media and materials in Mul’s practice. It foregrounds her sustained interest in sculptural concerns, direct engagement with materials, and in processes of layering, transformation, meaning, and re-meaning across multiple levels of articulation. Central to this is a continuous process of familiarizing herself and working with new materials and practices, which, are repeatedly extracted from their conventional contexts and expanded into new bodies of work. These are, in turn, accompanied and reframed by other materials and by more social formats of production and presentation.

Spatial relations—how things are positioned, how they relate to one another—play a decisive role in communicating Mul’s practice. Materiality and form consistently carry a political charge, articulated through conceptual and symbolic elaborations, accompanying texts and the ways in which existing works are re-presented and re-situated. An underlying current throughout her work is a critical engagement with patriarchal structures, systems of value, distributions of power, alongside an examination of artificiality and abstraction in relation to analogue, direct forms of action […]."
