Torrington Project

Author: Tom Burr

Publisher: Primary Information (2025)

Torrington Project is an artist book by Tom Burr documenting his three-year occupation of a repurposed 19th-century factory in Torrington, Connecticut. A subversive take on the catalogue raisonné, it blurs the boundaries between studio and gallery, art and architecture, and artist and community. Through extensive photographic documentation, critical essays, and personal reflections, it maps both the physical transformation of the space and the network of social exchanges that emerged within it. The publication functions not as a static record but as an active extension of the Torrington Project itself—a site where past works, new interventions, and evolving ideas continue to circulate and unfold beyond their original context.
