PRE-ORDER: Marens van Leunen – Responds Quickly, Friendly

Responds Quickly, Friendly is the debut book from Dutch visual artist and photographer Marens van Leunen. The work brings together carefully constructed still life installations of her father's belongings, taken before his apartment, where he had lived for thirty years, was sold. From coffee cups to computer screens, sofas to storage boxes, these staged photographs become playful inventories of belongings soon to be listed and uploaded, bought and sold. van Leunen's work is a site where personal history, memory, and material culture intersect; it is both a gentle meditation on the relationship between a father and daughter and an intimate study of the significance of our daily objects and domestic interiors.
