Fourthwall books
Fourthwall Books was established in Johannesburg in 2010 by the writer and editor Bronwyn Law-Viljoen and the designer Oliver Barstow, with Terry Kurgan joining in 2015 and co-directing the company with Law-Viljoen. It publishes art and photography books, and several of its titles have earned local and international awards for design and writing. It had a physical bookstore until the economic downturn set in motion by Covid-19, and it now sells through museum bookstores and through Idea Books in Europe and North America.
