The City as Anthology: Movements at the Margins of Public Space presents the work of Mariken Overdijk, artist and teacher at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie, with an introduction in collaboration with Jeroen Boomgaard, former lector of LAPS (Lectorate of Art & Public Space).
 
The book is about bodies. About how bodies traverse the familiar
surroundings of one’s home or move along the familiar routes of everyday life, but also about the relation of bodies to the public space.
 
On another level, the book shows what the meaning of artistic research can be. Research recounts experiments and experiences, collections and vistas gained by the researcher during the course of their work. This book shows that any good (artistic) research creates futures.

The book stages research, wanders, interrogates, describes, draws, explores, and thus offers a series of choreographies of ordinary life. Mariken Overdijk makes clear that a work of art is not a one-time, singular event, but creates a possibility that, however minimal, changes live.
