The story
The name of the press was inspired by Yves Klein's Dimanche-Le Journal d’un Seul Jour (Sunday- The One-day Newspaper), a one-day newspaper that he published and distributed on newsstands. Broken Dimanche Press is a European press interested in all aspects of books within the wider discourses of contemporary art and politics. 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.
BDP has a staff of three, including academic Ida Bencke, and works in ongoing collaboration with FUK Graphic Design Studio. It mainly publishes experimental literature and contemporary art. More recently, it has branched out into arranging exhibitions within the domain of contemporary art book publishing. It has been based in Berlin since 2008 but has also been active across Europe, notably in Milan, Oslo and Copenhagen. In 2013 there was a Tour BDP which saw events and readings being organised across Europe.
