Author: Sze, Sarah
Published as an accompanying book to Sze's Guggenheim exhibition 'Timekeeper' (2016), the majority of this volume is given over to expansive installation photographs, as well as sketches by the artist. An illustrated essay by curator Kyung An probes the depths of the exhibition’s thread of serendipitous encounters, while contributions by Hilton Als and Molly Nesbit offer explorations of the origins and resonances of Sze’s practice of timekeeping.Over three decades, Sarah Sze has developed a remarkable practice that boldly traverses sculpture, video, installation, painting, printmaking, drawing and sound. Her work, sometimes compared to scientific models, is distinguished by her intricate constructions using myriad ordinary objects and images that evidence the imprints of contemporary life. Sze’s Guggenheim exhibition, which centers on 'Timekeeper'—one of the first in the artist's eponymous series of multimedia installations—is a reflection on how our experience of time and place is continuously reshaped in a digitally and materially saturated world. The show represents the New York premiere of 'Timekeeper'. Sarah Sze (born 1969) received a BA from Yale University in Connecticut in 1991 and an MFA from New York’s School of Visual Arts in 1997. Her previous monographs include 'Timekeeper' (2018), 'Night into Day' (2021) and 'Fallen Sky' (2022). Born in Boston, Sze presently lives and works in New York.
