Author: Miralda, Antoni
Spanish artist Antoni Miralda found in drawing and photography a refuge from his required military service. From this hostile wasteland would emerge the seeds of works that would distinguish him within the Parisian avant-garde of the mid-1960s. 'Booom' is a heretofore unpublished compilation of Miralda's photographs and notebook sketches, made while at boot camp, which are at the root of his antiwar sculptures – a body of work that led the artist to become internationally celebrated. It is an essential publication for gaining a deeper understanding of Miralda's remarkable ability to transform everyday elements into powerful instruments of critique and provocation. 'Booom', of course, does not arrive at just any moment. It comes at a time when the world is witnessing the most severe escalation of potential armed conflict since World War II.
ISBN 9788410024533. La Fábrica. hb. 228 pages. 147 colour ills. 24.2 x 17.2 cm.
