Rotterdam Air Raid

Rotterdam, May 14 is a limited edition screen printed booklet (laparello style) in black and silver. It measures 14,5 by 435 cm (about 6 by 171 inch)  in a hand bound slipcase. It depicts the World War II bombing and rebuilding of Rotterdam in 30 images and 1 verse from a poem of J.C. Bloem.

In Dutch:

‘Hoe vreemd ligt deze stad nu open,
hoe is zij wonderlijk en licht:
De huizenloze straten lopen
van niets naar niets toch niet ontwricht.’

In English something like:

‘How strange this city lies open,
she is wonderful and light:
The houseless streets run
from nothing to nothing still not disrupted’
