A Concise Atlas of Es Devlin - Es Devlin

Descriere A Concise Atlas of Es Devlin - Es Devlin

\n A Concise Atlas of Es Devlin brings all of the artist's work together in one compact, cube-shaped 1,000-page volume. Devlin's protean work is rooted in a lifelong practice of reading and drawing. From sketches in the margins of texts--including poetry, drama, song lyrics, opera libretti, climate reports, and endangered species lists--emerge the technically advanced, collectively imagined universes for which she is globally renowned. Fragile miniature paintings, paper cuts, and small mechanical cardboard models form the seeds of some of the most iconic, large-scale, multidisciplinary cultural manifestations in recent times, from public sculptures and installations outside Tate Modern and Lincoln Center, to kinetic stage designs at the Metropolitan Opera, Olympic ceremonies, Super Bowl halftime shows, and monumental illuminated stage sculptures for globally celebrated musicians.\n \nDevlin's work is at once deeply personal and inherently collective. Over the past decade her art practice has engaged with biodiversity, linguistic diversity, and collective AI-generated poetry. She views the audience as a temporary society and encourages profound cognitive shifts by inviting public participation in communal choral works.\n \nFollowing the award-winning success of the first edition, originally published in 2023 with a retrospective exhibition at the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum in New York City, A Concise Atlas of Es Devlin is both contracted in size while expanded in extent, featuring thirty new projects from her recent output, showcasing an artist committed to exploring the limits of the visual arts. Spanning over three decades of creativity, the tome features Devlin's personal commentaries on each work, as well as interviews with her collaborators.\n
