OAZA BOOKS – Miss Read

OAZA BOOKS

OAZA BOOKS is an independent publisher on art, artistic research, design, poetry and illustration. Books are designed, edited and published by Art and Design Collective Oaza from Zagreb.

So far we have established several editions. oBOOK / Editions in the field of art, design and research are edited and curated by members of the OAZA Collective. The edition arose from the need to articulate critical views derived from the self-initiated works of OAZA members. aBOOK / Artists’ Books Edition focuses on collaboration with exciting artists from around the globe delivering artists’ books that fuse contemporary art practice, graphic design and publishing. Oaza&Sons / Illustrated Edition brings out a series of intelligent and inspiring illustrated books for children and adults. The series emerged from the belief in transformative power of children’s literature — in its simultaneous act as art, as pedagogy, as ethics and as a political practice. Oaza&Friends / Co-production and co-publishing projects in which members of the OAZA Collective participate in different roles.

At the moment we are preparing artist book called 'Witches' together with Sanja Iveković - considered to be one of the leading artists from the former Yugoslavia, known for tackling female identity, media, consumerism, and political strife. This particular book is dealing with female identity and desire to be free in a society with a strong patriarchal roots, even nowadays. The book speaks openly on feminism and nationalism, having confessions from a few important activists - the 'Croatian Witches'. We hope to have it ready for August 2024.
