Description

This large, exhaustive monograph is devoted to the Swiss artist. Using photography, video, painting, drawing, sculpture, sound, and text by turns, Rondinone is a virtuoso of forms and techniques. Developing surprising sensorial environments, he especially likes destabilizing our perceptions and unsettling our certainties. Rearranging content and formal elements through a personal poetic filter while taking directly from the outside world, he draws us into a synesthetic experience. This monograph recreates this work in all its richness, documenting all pieces since 2005, organized by typologies. Published with Aargauer Kunsthaus, Aarau and MUSAC, Leon. English and Spanish text.
