Cindy Sherman — Untitled horrors
Cindy Sherman — Untitled horrors
This catalog was designed together with Stefania Malmsten for Cindy Shermans exhibition “Untitled Horrors” at Astrup Fearnley Museet (Oslo), Moderna Museet (Stockholm) and Kunsthaus Zürich. The catalog is edited and published in four language editions (Norwegian, Swedish, English and German) by Moderna Museet in collaboration with Hatje Cantz Verlag. The catalog contains 135 of Shermans works, ranging from 1975 to 2013. The texts, written by a number of famous authors and poets, were defined as their own works. This led us to separate the text and images. The texts varied widely in form and range, so we developed a system based on four different point sizes and a flexible type area. This helped us deal with the four language editions. Separating text and image was also converted to the cover by turning the flaps. As none of Sherman’s works could be cropped, we introduced an introduction where some of the images were repeated and presented in full bleed.
