Synopsis

This generously illustrated book accompanies Doug Aitken's first full-scale survey exhibition, exploring his diverse body of work across photography, architecture, video, and spoken word. It delves into sound pieces, sculpture, and land art, showcasing how Aitken re-imagines the nature of art through collaborative experiments. Essays within the volume examine the artist's ideas, from environmental decay to the concept of linear time, and explain his challenges to traditional artistic barriers.
