Replika first issue - ECHO launch

REPLIKA invite you to the launch of the first issue: ECHO

The launch will take place at Holz Kohlen Koks, Reuterstraße 82, 12053 Berlin. On Saturday the 11th of June 2016 at 19:00.

REPLIKA is a three dimensional magazine bringing together artists from all spheres to explore a unified concept. With each issue, artists, writers, musicians and creators of all descriptions are invited to explore a given theme, and to respond with an object-based, serialised work.

Replika was founded on a desire to exhibit artists works in a format somewhere between an artist's book -which is a rapidly expanding medium, growing in popularity, with the traditional exhibition.

we want to provide artists with a platform which is indiscriminate when it comes to place, gender, career and is able to focus purely on conceptual engagement.

even though the internet has quickly become a very useful tool for artists to share their work and ideas, we felt it necessary to bring art back into a three-dimensional realm.

influenced by mail art, the Fluxus movement and DIY art books and Zines, Replika aims to become a highly aesthetic collectable item which explores a wide variety of themes and concepts throughout each of it's issues.

Each Issue will consist of ten Boxes in lieu of a book. each box containing Ten works by Ten different artists. as each piece is to be replicated manually, each of the 10 boxes will vary slightly and will be a unique collectable. the box will be accompanied by a catalogue in which each work is photographed and itemised along with further text from the artists, the curators and further submitters.

The catalogue is also able to stand alone and will sold separately at our exhibition and online.

Both the edition and the catalogue are be self published and handmade.

in our first issue, the theme explored is: ECHO

ECHO

A close parallel to an idea, feeling, or event.

The repetition in structure and content of one speaker’s utterance by another.

The deliberate introduction of reverberation into a sound recording.

A sound or sounds caused by the reflection of sound waves from a surface back to the listener.

A reflected radio or radar beam. A characteristic that is suggestive of something else.

A person who slavishly repeats the words or opinions of another. A result of imitation.
