Stanley Brouwn's conceptual practice revolved around themes of distance, movement, and measurement, using physical mapping to move beyond abstract representation towards radically simple forms of depiction. Published in conjunction with the exhibition held at the Gegenverkehr e. V. Zentrum für aktuelle Kunst in Aachen in May 1971, this volume records the artist's "total number of steps" in a series of countries, from "Afghanistan" to "Zambia", transforming numerical data into a performative act of journaling. Through this deliberate redundancy, Brouwn offers a conceptual and poetic way of representing the world: not through images or maps, but through the thousands of steps he literally took.
