Includes bibliographical references.
Studio Job is one of the most important contemporary design and art collectives working today. This book documents 10 years of their work and is in conjunction with a major survey exhibition at the Groninger Museum. In the past ten years, the Groninger Museum has accumulated a substantial collection of work by Studio Job, which consists of Job Smeets (1970) and Nynke Tynagel (1977). The exhibition displays the world-famous designs of Studio Job. Important series such as Homework (2006-2007) and Robber Baron (2007) illustrate Studio Job's virtuoso handling of extraordinary materials and extreme techniques. But the archetypical and monumental objects show, above all, an expressive engagement at the interface of art and design.
