New Resident | Ladies of the Press

We're excited to offer ladies of the press* our 3rd residency slot. They will be in residence ready for the launch of our programme this April. We look forward to their creative presence and their inspiring workshops:

Čavić & O'Drobinak, aka the ladies of the press* is an arts publisher run by two artists: Ana Čavić and Renée O’Drobinak. We are a compact publishing unit dedicated to producing “performative” publications that thrive on collaboration, extending the performative action of the work of art into the realm of print. With each publishing project we endeavour to site the performance on the page while examining our interchanging roles as artists, editors and curators.Re-imagining the role of the publisher as a theatrical persona , our collaboration focuses on enacting a publication. The ladies of the press pulls off the various roles of a publishing house, ranging from the researcher to the distributor, highlighting the behind-the-scenes of the production process. Our goal is to become a sustainable art/publishing practice that retains the freedom to print what otherwise finds itself in the margins.
