Author: Arno Baudin (ed.)
A site-specific installation exhibited outside Palm Springs, a defunct Detroit bank and the Alpine landscape of Gstaad, Mirage is inspired by the ranch-style suburban American house. A visual echo-chamber, its mirrored surfaces form a life-size kaleidoscope that absorbs and reflects the landscape. This publication offers the reader an experience that shares some of the characteristics of the installation: the immersive emotion, the disrupted perception, the merging of viewer and landscape.The book gathers previously unpublished photo-documentation on the installations, plus drawings and more. Featuring cold foils, special inks, silver printing and bound accordion-style to reflect the mirror-like quality of Mirage, this limited edition, copublished with Zolo Press, is certain to soon become a collectible item.
ISBN 9783037645642. JRP|Editions/Zolo Press. hb. 168 pages. 100 colour, 20 b/w ills. 24 x 32 cm.
