Bøger af Aurora Garcia

Exploring scale and perception, Josâe Damasceno's imaginative and surreal approach to sculpture is catalogued in this comprehensive monograph. Brazilian artist Josâe Damasceno is best known for large-scale sculptures and installations that deconstruct and transform common objects from pencils and cigarettes to hammers and strings into the unfamiliar. Damasceno's work is preoccupied with transformation, moving from one medium to another to form a layered process that surprises and disorientates the viewer. Having represented Brazil at the 52nd Venice Biennale in 2007, Damasceno's body of work is catalogued in full for the first time here and features over 200 colour illustrations alongside texts by Aurora Garcia, Jose Thomaz Brum and an interview with the artist by Ann Gallagher. Published in association with Editora Cobogâo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.
