The House Style: Culture of the Expanded Book

C&L Design presents The House Style: Culture of the Expanded Book, bringing together a range of important India-based publishing houses and self-published authors. In addition to presenting an array of books focussed on arts and culture, the exhibition also pays particularly attention to publishing projects that have been informed by, or have provided impetus to, objects and artworks in other media: this includes film, photography, painting, prints, sculpture, soundscapes, even performance. The sheer diversity of material presented indicates the vibrancy and experimental nature of expanded book culture in India at present.

The House Style is the second time C&L has looked to the world of books and book design. In 2016, Rukminee Guha Thakurta curated Zones of Privacy, bringing together both self-published publications and distributed editions.
