Notes on Workwear

Notes on Workwear includes various projects, plans, exhibition documentation, single pieces and texts which address the subject of contemporary labour. Focusing mostly on clothing as well as other body-related paraphernalia associated with labour, leisure and post-work, the book brings together work that Ben has made in this area over the last few years. Rather than looking like an ‘artist’s book’, this book follows relatively conservative design templates in order to emulate standard product catalogues that are typical of some of the workwear companies that Ben has collaborated with. The book also includes texts by Lea Vene and Tonći Vladislavić.
