Permanence Through Print: Klokkenhof
Spookstad
Regular price €10,00
“Squatting always continues, but a squat rarely remains forever. Permanence Through Print is a series of publications in which squats are documented before they disappear. This zine, the first of the series, features Klokkenhof, a squat that has been persistently targeted by rightwing media attention. The zine intervenes to set the record straight through interviews with a number of the squatters, complemented by historical and theoretical reflections about the Klokkenhof building and the roots of the present housing crisis. The squatters themselves are portrayed within their living space, through collages of photography and linocut: in full view within their living spaces, while rendered anonymous at the same time.”
Squatters living at a recently cleared out building (Tito, Mo Sien, and Crioyo) share their experiences at Klokkenhof, also including are texts by Boris that sketch the history of the building and critically examine the role of real estate investors in the ongoing housing crisis, with illustrations by Layla Gijsen and photographs by Sergio Spadon.
