Jan Verwoert is celebrating the launch of his most recent book, COOKIE!, at Berlin’s Motto bookstore on June 6.
The new volume – edited by Vivian Sky Rehberg and Marnie Slater and designed by Nienke Terpsma –is being published by Sternberg Press, in conjunction with the Piet Zwart Institute and the Willem de Kooning Academy. The book comes as a sequel to Verwoert’s latest book, Tell Me What You Want, What You Really, Really Want, and is the third in a series of books published with the Piet Zwart Institute.
In COOKIE!, Verwoert zeroes in on the tragicomedy of making, showing, and critiquing art, showing the hard emotional labour that goes into it, and gesturing towards the culture of “con-artist (like us)”.
