Description
A unique opportunity to learn about the creative lives of the world's leading artists and architects.
Hans Ulrich Obrist has been conducting ongoing conversations with the world's greatest living artists since he began in Switzerland, aged 19, with Fischli and Weiss. Here he chooses nineteen of the greatest figures and presents their conversations, offering the reader intimacy with the artists and insight into their creative processes.
Inspired by the great Vasari, Lives of the Artists, Lives of the Architects explores the meaning of art and artists today. Including David Hockney, Gilbert and George, Gerhard Richter, Louise Bourgeois, Rem Koolhaas and Oscar Niemeyer, this is a wonderful and unique book for those interested in modern art.
