Publisher's Synopsis
This publication is a survey of Pierre Huyghe's practice from the last ten years: "The Host and the Cloud" (2009-2010) took place in a former museum in Paris; "Untilled" (2012) was developped during documenta (13); "After ALife Ahead" (2017) was conceived in a disused ice rink as part of Skulptur Projekte Münster; "UUmwelt" (2018), which was installed first at the Serpentine Galleries in London, and later at Luma Arles, is the culmination of a ground-breaking approach to exhibitions. A conversation between Hans Ulrich Obrist and an essay by Dorothea von Hantelmann offer a comprehensive discussion of this period. Drawings, diagrams, plans, text and reference images, photographs and film stills add to over 400 pages and make this an important reference book. --Publisher.
