Folder designs interfaces, publications, and systems for organizing, encountering, and carrying information forward. We help museums, universities, civic institutions, and others engaged in the stewardship and sharing of knowledge create ways for language, media, and material to surface and endure.
We are interested in what happens to information over time, and how form can reveal the connections that give it meaning. Projects come in a variety of configurations rooted in partnerships that honor the material and its strategic presentation.
Post Human documents the 2024 revival of Jeffrey Deitch’s foundational 1992 exhibition. The original exhibition featured thirty-six artists working at the intersection of the body and technology and helped set the agenda for 1990s art discourse. The 2024 exhibition brings original participants into dial ogue with a new generation, expanding the discussion to contemporary concepts of technology and the body.
Parergon: Japanese Art of the 1980s and 1990s is the exhibition catalog for the landmark two-part exhibition curated by Mika Yoshitake at Blum & Poe. It is a definitive English-language primer and primary text for a largely undocumented period of Japanese art history, between the 1970s Mono-ha movement and the Neo-Pop era. The catalog features performance photography, installation shots, curatorial essays, socio-political analysis, textimonials, artist interviews, underground noise profiles, and music ephemera.
New Images of Man is both a tribute to and a radical revision of Peter Selz’s controversial 1959 exhibition of the same name at MoMA New York. The show pushes against the homogeneity of the original, asking what figurative art means when freed from midcentury Western gatekeeping. The catalog doubles down on the self-referential nature of the show using Dave Muller’s massive wall painting of Selz’s original 1959 book cover as its own.
