"Conceived by Åbäke as a 'reasonable alternative' to a catalogue raisonné for the artist. Documenting over 500 works made during a ten-year period, the Catalogue Raisonnable is intended to be navigated freely and illogically, in a non-linear fashion by its reader, echoing the 'para-possible thinking' and 'associative methodologies' on which much of Gander's practice is based. For those readers that wish to draw some logic from its content, it is suggested that the book is navigated through its index. Catalogue Raisonnable consists of two sections. The first is a complete index/catalogue of the artist's practice, while the second is made up from a collage of by-products, off-cuts, transcriptions, scripts, conversations, and material related to the works in the index." --Publisher description.
