ISBN 9789081241311 Concept, Photography, Design, Illustrations - Christien Meindersma Eerste Druk 2007 Christien Meindertsma has spent three years researching all the products made from a single pig. Amongst some of the more unexpected results were: Ammunition, medicine, photo paper, heart valves, brakes, chewing gum, porcelain, cosmetics, cigarettes, conditioner and even bio diesel. Meindertsma makes the subject more approachable by reducing everything to the scale of one animal. After it's death, Pig number 05049 was shipped in parts throughout the world. Some products remain close to their original form and function while others diverge dramatically. In an almost surgical way a pig is dissected in the pages of the book - resulting in a startling photo book where all the products are shown at their true scale (1:1). The project was exhibited in the Kunsthal in Rotterdam in 2008. Meindertsma won with the book PIG 05049 three Dutch Design Awards in 2008 and a Index Award in 2009. Ook contains 185 photo’s, number of pages approx 400 Laguage english/dutch, but 90 % in english
