Stage Play focuses on Christopher Williams’ theatrical work Stage Play, first presented in 2017 at Miller’s Studio in Zürich in conjunction with gta Exhibitions at ETH University Zürich. Housed in a slipcase, it contains documentation and the play- script for his eponymous play, related publicity and research documents, the artist’s series of open letters, and a related interview he conducted with historian Markus Krajewski on the use of ceramic tile façades of post-war architecture in Cologne. In addition to two critical essays by Tom McDonough, this publi- cation is largest collection to date of Williams’ writing. The script for Williams’ tense postwar drama is published here for the first time.
