In 1967, Johannes Cladders, director of the Städtische Museum Mönchengladbach, and artist Joseph Beuys developed a new kind of museum catalogue, that would be presented as a self-contained box – a miniature continuation of the exhibition it described. This title presents all 35 "catalogue-boxes", with work by Carl Andre, George Brecht, Marcel Broodthaers, Hanne Darboven, Robert Filliou, Jasper Johns, Richard Long, Piero Manzoni, Panamarenko, Gerhard Richter and Lawrence Weiner.Cladders worked with a number of artists to create unique catalogue-boxes, for each of their exhibitions, up until 1978; they are now legendary collectible objects. From Jasper Johns’ elegant cardboard catalogue, which contained a plastic rose alongside three paper scrolls, to Piero Manzoni’s clear plastic box, the kassettenkataloge embody each artist’s respective style as well as the participatory artistic approach that defined that era.
