    Aanschafinformatie

    "Daily Spins. Thomas Trum" shows almost 600 powerful artworks in the clearly recognizable, colorful, abstract-geometric visual language of the artist, and is designed by Team Thursday. Each cover is hand sprayed with two colours by Team Thomas Trum, making every edition of this monograph unique.

    Thomas Trum (1989) works on the intersection of art and design. Most of his work evolves around a material research of paint and techniques to apply this. Using the studio as a place for experiment, he looks into unconventional ways to paint on paper, canvas or walls. For example, he used a super sized felt pen, a machine for road line marking and brushes attached to a drill. His very active way of working is often based on trial-and-error: the result of his actions are never pre-determined, keeping enthusiasm and velocity part of the end result.

    Uitgeversinformatie

    Thomas Trum (Rosmalen, 1989) is a painter. He often creates his works on a large scale and uses tools such as giant homemade felt-tip pens and rotating spraying machines.

    Research into materials, techniques, and composition are at the heart of his work. He is particularly fascinated by the idea of leaving behind traces of his creation a hangover from his time on the graffiti scene. He is also intrigued by large vehicles, such as agricultural machinery, which also leave behind traces of a rhythmic pattern. By experimenting with these machines, Trum is continually discovering new ways to create images.

    The book 'Daily Spins' shows both Thomas Trum's work and experiments. A big stack of his paintings are printed and complemented with photos and stills of his murals, experiments and process, printed on blueback paper. This poster paper subtly refers to his former preference to make (il)legal works on the streets. The order of the works and the extended index of his works subtly give hints about how Thomas Trum works. A text by Charlotte Hoitsma and a conversation with Irene Fortuyn are also included in the book. The title 'Daily Spins' refers to Trum's daily routine in his studio in 's-Hertogenbosch.

    'Daily Spins' is designed by Team Thursday (Loes van Esch & Simone Trum). Every cover of the 1,500 books is sprayed by team Thomas Trum. This makes the books itself a series of colour experiments: one colour on the front and another on the back mix into a new colour on the spine. This makes every copy of the book unique.
