Some say
Joseph Joachim Beeman is an alchemist. And it is true, whether with That means the ability to implement the dreams using all kinds of instruments: the word that creates and explores the image, the editorial work ... Books fluctuating form, unexpected and, above all, unique. In La Torre degli Arabeschi the word is a way of life that goes beyond mere transmission of content independent of its medium-paper, a screen. Here, however, the word is exalted in its materiality unique. Each book in the Tower that the reader has in hand is just that book, in itself, in its difference captivating. The extreme limitation of the number copies, hand-building without turning their backs to the art-pranks, allow only one that recovers the meaning and pleasure. And vice versa, of course. Because what unites its readers is the paradoxical condition of selfless treasure hunters. With unflagging enthusiasm, imagination and skill, José Joaquín strives to give the book-and the worlds it contains, the emotional status of an object to treasure hunters, just as tireless.

In its dialogue with the shadows in the tower at the mercy of bad books, the best-selling light, the clouds of virtual points and sweeping winds of pages, there a handful of collections, each with a mark-original, designed, made, illustrated, printed and bound by hand by José Joaquín Beemer. But they are not libriccini the only passion of the maker and treasure hunter, and also the movies, monsters, comics, poetry, travel, barricades, the aphorisms, how much tip singularity peek through the haze will be the subject of dislocation and play, rupture and reinforced exposure to the four elements of his imagery and imagination, his juggling and hocus-pocus, his curiosity destripajuguetes.
