Area Books

AREA is an independent publishing house dedicated to the promotion of contemporary visual artists. AREA likes experimental practices as well. AREA draws inspiration from remote visions of our world in order to reveal its ambiguity. AREA speaks of imagined, futuristic or projected territories. AREA creates book projects in close collaboration with its artists and authors. AREA is run by Laure-Anne Kayser (founder of Bureau Kayser).
