Schlüpfendes Krokodil by Johanna Bossart
Schlüpfendes Krokodil is a 208-page hardcover publication by Johanna Bossart, published by Vexer Verlag in 2024, featuring texts by Bernadette Fülscher, Michael Hiltbrunner, and the artist herself, with design by unfolded, Zürich.
Description of the project by Vexer:
Schoop (1903–1990) is explored through photography and archival materials. Multi-faceted material reveals Bossart’s creative process, incorporating archival research alongside excerpts from her correspondence with archives and museums, personal notes, letters, and photographs. A conversation between Bossart and Bernadette Fülscher, which focuses on art in public space, and a text by Michael Hiltbrunner, examining the role of archives, further expand the book’s themes. With 'Schlüpfendes Krokodil,' Bossart revives Schoop’s often overlooked work while at the same time presenting her own artistic creation.
