Hiroshi SUGIMOTO - Lot 188

Hiroshi SUGIMOTO Revue Cahiers d'art, Special issue "100th Issue", 2014, dedicated to Hiroshi SUGIMOTO. This issue is inspired by "The World is Dead Today", a narrative written by Sugimoto for his exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo, set against his own eclectic collection of antiques and previously unpublished images of his work, all recounting the end of modernity. Texts include an interview with the artist by Hans Ulrich Obrist, contributions by renowned architect Jacques Herzog and Akiko Miki, chief curator of the Palais de Tokyo, as well as an essay by Daniel Birnbaum, Director of Moderna Museet, on the mathematical dimensions of Duchamp's work, and a reprint of an archival article from a presentation in the Cahiers d'Art of 1929 on Brancusi's work, with texts by surrealist playwright Roger Vitrac and Brancusi himself.
