Thomas Schütte: Houses II

Thomas Schütte: Houses II collects architectural work by the artist, presenting 18 projects completed between 2003 and 2023, along with their construction stories. Schütte’s approach is characterised by the use of a 1:1 scale to bring his designs to life. By doing so, Schütte turns architecture into an artistic medium, creates new catalysts for large-scale sculpture, and blurs the lines between sculpture, architecture, and concept art. Also features numerous images and construction plans. This volume is being published on the occasion of Schütte's solo exhibition Westkunstmodelle 1:1 at the De Pont Museum in Tilburg. Schütte has been counted among Germany’s best-known contemporary artists since he received the Golden Lion at the 2005 Venice Biennale.
