Published on the occasion of 'Raging Planet' and 'The Power and the Glory', two group exhibitions at Newport Street Gallery, London, these two books – presented here in a slipcase set – showcase the full selection of works & explore the intersection of chaos, destruction and creation in contemporary art. Beautifully designed and featuring insightful essays, these publications examine the reverberations of both natural and human-created disaster in cultural production. Curated by Connor Hirst, the 'Raging Planet' exhibition spanned the gallery’s ground floor and featured works by Angela Bulloch, Roger Hiorns, Oliver Marsden, Hwang Samyong, Bosco Sodi and Keith Tyson. Upstairs, 'The Power and the Glory' exhibition presented a selection of scholars’ rocks and archival photographs from the atomic age, interrogating the atomic bomb’s significance – not only as a subject of immense political, scientific and ethical relevance but also as a cultural object.
