Muller Van Severen: A Lot of Work
About this book
A Lot of Work is the first monograph on Belgian studio Muller Van Severen, published by Apartamento in 2026 and edited by Nicolás Barreto and Nacho Alegre. The 224-page English hardcover treats fifteen years of furniture and objects as a collage of private and public archives, placing Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen side by side as a studio and as individual artists. Images are allowed to speak through adjacency rather than long captions, with an opening text that frames the book as a pause rather than a retrospective.
