WERK No.21: Martine Bedin. Essay and interview by Alison Harley (2014)

『WERK』第21号は、1981年にイタリア・ミラノで結成されたデザイン集団「メンフィス（Memphis）」の創設メンバーの一人、フランス人デザイナーのマルティーヌ・ベダン（Martine Bedin）とのコラボレーション号。本書はベダンのドローイングやペインティングを広範囲に記録した、モノグラフあるいはスケッチブックのような一冊。アリソン・ハーレー（Alison Harley）によるインタビューも収録され、メンフィス時代から現在に至るまでの活動の軌跡を辿ります。構造的にもユニークで、6つのセクションにはそれぞれ異なる幾何学模様の型抜きが施されています。さらに、ページの側面には円、三角、四角といった図形が、色とりどりのインクで手作業でペイントされています。閉じたときの佇まいはメンフィスの彫刻のようであり、本として刊行されたべダンのプロダクトそのもののような作品集。

The 21st issue of conceptual visual magazine WERK is a collaboration with French designer Martine Bedin, one of the members of the design collective Memphis. The issue acts like a monograph or sketchbook, extensively documenting Martine’s drawings and paintings. An interview with Bedin by Alison Harley runs alongside, discussing her years at Memphis and the trajectory of her work since. The publication is divided into six sections, each with a different geometric die-cut pattern. The edges of the pages are circles, triangles and squares hand painted with a different colour ink so that the form of the magazine feels like a Memphis sculpture.
