In his latest book, artist Honza Zamojski makes an illustrative and poetic attempt to describe the Middlemen, their everyday life, and the realities that surround them. The book’s short punchlines mark the rhythm of the Middelmen’s life and their movements in the illustrations, which are wryly reminiscent of Kafka’s fictional world. Produced by the International Centre of Graphic Arts (MGLC) in Ljubljana and realized on the occasion of the exhibition Middleman (10. 3.–28. 5. 2023), the publication comes with a Middlemancardboard puppet, literally the “hero taken from the book and put aside,” a playful object to be screwed together, assembled, and dealt with, sometimes feeling a bit guilty.
