Broken Dimanche Press (BDP) [2] is an international publisher and art platform founded by John Holten and Line Madsen Simenstad in 2009 in Berlin.

Founded in Berlin in 2009 by John Holten and Line Madsen Simenstad, BDP has executed many book projects, exhibition, reading series and interventions across Europe.

Taking its cue from the initial impulse of Broken Dimanche Press – exploring the border between literature and contemporary art practice – the focus is on translation, editions, print solutions and the physical meeting of the core agents in book production: writers, artist, designers, editors, printers, distributors, booksellers and readers.

It is furnished with a bespoke modular desk and display unit created by Canadian designer Leanne MacKay and over 50m2 of gallery and office space.

With experiments that tend towards asemic writing practices and eccentric narrative vantage points, we want to challenge the ideas of what it means to signify, in what manner significations can manifest themselves, and what promises for our relations to the Others a poetry in an expanded transhuman field might hold.
