{"product_id":"roman-signer-roman-signer-9781909932081","title":"Roman Signer: Slow Movement","description":"\u003cp\u003eRenowned for his sculptural installations and video works that push everyday objects and situations to absurd ends, Roman Signer's latest commission uses the kayak - a longstanding symbol and form in his work for three decades. Accompanying Signer's exhibition in the Curve, Barbican, London (4 March-31 May 2015), this volume documents the transformative quality of the artist's playful and surreal approach. Specifically made for the installation, the kayak moves through the Curve towed by a rope suspended from the ceiling, navigating the 90-metre long gallery as if moving through a canal. Accompanying installation views, related work and an interview with the artist by David Signer, an essay by Rachel Withers explores the multiple facets of his innovative practice through his on-going interest in this object. This title inaugurates a new publication series by Barbican Art Gallery and Ridinghouse that focuses on the Curve exhibition programme.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roman Signer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1909932086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781909932081\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ridinghouse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 43\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 6.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Roman Signer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43988055982335,"sku":"9781909932081","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_759120d9-8b2e-4af9-8fcb-0c16e085ff8f.jpg?v=1683292368","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/roman-signer-roman-signer-9781909932081","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
