The artist's book 'Foundation for Exhibiting Art & Knowledge' was published on the occasion of the exhibition 'R-05.Q-IP.0001' that was held at Casino Luxembourg - Forum l'art contemporain. The collaboration between artist Wesley Meuris and Michel Dewilde (curator of the Bruges Cultural Centre) resulted in a volume constructed on the basis of a fictive foundation.

The volume also includes many texts and interviews.

The City on Display: Architecture Festivals and the Urban Commons reflects on the biennials, triennials, and other festivals of architecture and design that have been held over the last two decades, as they expand and transform in response to the exigencies of ‘planetary urbanisation’. Joel Robinson examines the development of these large-scale, international, and perennial exhibitions as they address such challenges as urban regeneration, heritage preservation, climate change, and the migration crisis. Homing in on examples of festivals in Venice, Rotterdam, Oslo, Tallinn, Sharjah, Seoul, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong, the author describes how they alter the public spaces that host them, eith...
