His art engages with history and the passage of time, raising important questions about representation, idolatry, iconoclasm, and ecology in our contemporary world. In the artist's own words, \"My work attempts to reveal time, or rather natural phenomena of time (erosion for example) as creative.\" One of his best-known series, \"Sinai\" (2010), features photographic images of the necks of Greek sculptures, cropped and lit in such a way that they become abstract landscapes. This book is the first to offer an in-depth exploration of the full scope of Samyn's oeuvre. Copiously illustrated, the book also includes penetrating essays by prominent European philosophers and art historians. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for Mercatorfonds \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eGallerie Sies + Hoek, D?seldorf\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (2020)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vinciane Despret, Pascal Rousseau, Wivine de Traux\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300250460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300250466\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mercatorfonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/24\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.90h x 9.60w x 1.10d","brand":"Vinciane Despret","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43987426935039,"sku":"9780300250466","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ceb909be-6f1a-4780-aaaa-d42bd72a4007.jpg?v=1683288922","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/fabrice-samyn-vinciane-despret-9780300250466","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
