Full Description

An exploration of the captivating works of Carla Arocha and Stéphane Schraenen, which reference both popular culture and Minimalism
 
This lavishly illustrated monograph offers a comprehensive study of Arocha and Schraenen's individual works and collaborative practice since 2006. It explores their captivating works, which reference popular culture and Minimalism, and their exploration of perception and cultural themes through large-scale installations, paintings, and the photographic medium.
 
Featuring historical and new photography of works and installations produced between 1990 and 2023, the publication delves into over 500 artworks, alongside cultural references, sketches, and archival ephemera. The book, edited by Barbara Vanderlinden, includes essays from such renowned art critics and curators as Mónica Amor, Marc Donnadieu, and Philippe Pirotte, and reprinted interviews with Arocha and Schraenen by Helen Molesworth and Hans-Ulrich Obrist. A detailed illustrated chronology, exhibition history, bibliography, and index round out this comprehensive volume.
 
Designed by Irma Boom, the book goes beyond a traditional monograph by "reimagining the format" to mirror the artists' collaborative spirit. It emphasizes how Arocha and Schraenen's work utilizes mirrors to disrupt viewers' perceptions of reality.
