This is a richly illustrated and insightful exploration of Mona Hatoum's visual aesthetic and diverse influences. Mona Hatoum works in a diverse and unconventional range of media, including installation, sculpture, video and photography, with her artistic practice discussed almost exclusively in sociopolitical terms. This richly illustrated monograph - which includes a number of full-page illustrations - explores Hatoum's unique visual aesthetic and brings other influences to the surface, notably Surrealism (the first Western art Hatoum discovered as a young girl) and Minimalism (the dominant aesthetic she encountered in art school in London). In exploring these seemingly contradictory impulses, this volume uncovers artistic and personal concerns that go beyond a simple journalistic reading of Hatoum's artistic practice.

This original monograph devoted to the work of the Paleestian-born artist launches an new contemporary art publisher. Hatoum works in a diverse and unconventional range of media, including installations, sculpture, video and photography and it is most often discussed exclusively in terms of its sociopolitical content. Grenier brings other influences to the surface, notably Surrealism - the first Western art Hatoum discovered as a young girl - and Minimalism - the dominant aesthetic she encountered in art school in London. In exploring these seemingly contradictory impulses, she uncovers artistic and personal concerns that go beyond a simple journalistic reading of Hatoum’s artistic career.
Catherine Grenier is deputy director at the Musee national d'Art Moderne, Centre Pompidou.
