PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Paul Chan: Breathers surveys work created by artist Paul Chan, a 2022 MacArthur Grant recipient, following his return to art making in 2010. This includes a series of anthropomorphic, pneumatic sculptures and the output of Badlands Unlimited, a publishing imprint, both of which mark a break or “breather” in the artist’s practice. Primarily known for his moving image work, Chan worked in close collaboration with the Walker’s Brian Huddleston to create catalogue that would animate the words on the page and give the body text a sense of movement. This was joined by two custom typefaces created specifically for the book, an irregular adaptation of Plantin for text, and a newly-drawn version of Churchward Design for display. An interview with the designer and artist can be found on the Walker website: https://walkerart.org/magazine/paul-chan-interviews-brian-huddleston-on-designing-the-catalogue-paul-chan-breathers
