MEET THE EXPERTS :

Zhen SHI

Founded in 2015 by French-Chinese artist Zhen SHI, La Maison de Z is a publishing house specializing in visual art and a platform covering various interests, including contemporary photography and independent publications. We see publishing as a way of research to explore the intricate interplay between memory and reality. From concept to design, from visual image to material, we’ve been persistently challenging the boundaries of paper as a vehicle while examining the essence of art books as a media language.
