'A Horse Is a Horse, of Course' is a small animal encyclopaedia. Stienes Veldkamp (Grou, 1965) staged photographs of artificial animals and found unexpected text fragments from old animal books to go with them. The result is a play with reality, a different look at the animal kingdom that doesn't shy away from a bit of humour.
The book is also available in a Dutch edition, under the title 'Een waarheid als een koe', and as a bilingual cd-rom.
A preview with photos and texts is available.
Coinciding with the publication of the book, an exhibition was held in the Nature Museum Groningen, under the same title. Stienes Veldkamp's personal website can be found at http://www.sv-photo.com, email s.veldkamp@sv-photo.com.
