The Librarians: A Guestroom Project

About

The Librarians is a series of 8 video portraits concerned with personal libraries and collections. Each film looks at one person's selections processes and by extension the design and location of environment in relation to their wider practice and ideas. Within the series we encounter both intentional collections and more organic yet highly specific selections within an ordinary bookshelf. As a sequence, the portraits become part of a complex constellation as relationships and connections develop between individuals and their ideas. The Librarians are: Tom McCarthy, Michael Leslie, Lorenza Boisi, Shaun Pubis, Pablo Bronstein, Rebecca Bligh, Isabel Waidner, Adam Sutherland
