Super-structures
The relationship between language and the city is the main themes of Superstructure – a retrospective on the small Amsterdam based graphic design studio Experimental Jetset
By focusing on four (sub-)cultural movements that have greatly informed the practice of Experimental Jetset (Constructivism, the Situationist International, the Provo movement, and the Post-Punk continuum), various ways in which the languages of these movements manifested themselves in the city are explored, just as the city manifested itself in the languages of these movements.
It results an abstract representation of a fragmented metropolis, in which these different movements exist at the same time, not unlike overlapping districts or zones.

Full Scale False Scale

Part reader, part collage, the book forms a subjective archive of research material, just as constructed as the installation itself. and reads like an exciting novel.
The many (insight) details testify to Jetset’s research, which clearly manifests how cultural baggage, political commitment and curiosity about contextual backgrounds play an important role in their work.
