Our books offer critical reflection, interdisciplinary inspiration, and often establish a connection between cultural disciplines and socio-political questions. We publish these books out of our commitment to their content, to artistic and social issues and to the artists, designers and authors. Apart from publishing Valiz organizes lectures, debates and other cultural projects in which certain topics in contemporary art are explored.

About Valiz
Valiz is an esteemed independent publisher based in Amsterdam, dedicated to exploring the intersections of art, society, design, and architecture. Established two decades ago by Astrid Vorstermans and Pia Pol, Valiz emerged from a desire for freedom and innovation in publishing that traditional models often restrict. The brand is notable for its critically engaging books that challenge conventional narratives and foster discussions on pivotal social issues.
Valiz's publications include the influential Arts in Society series, tackling the role of the arts in driving societal change, as well as the Vis-à-Vis series, focusing on creative writing within the arts. The publisher collaborates with a diverse array of authors and artists, prioritizing reflective and provocative discourse that resonates with a broader audience beyond academia. With a strong community backbone, Valiz continues to thrive through strategic partnerships and project-specific funding while maintaining a commitment to cultivating meaningful artistic conversations that inspire action and awareness
