Among other things, Tim Hawkinson's art celebrates the process and materiality of the work itself. This limited edition manual-esque exhibition catalogue, designed by the prominent New York firm, Helicopter, LLC, seeks to reflect that interaction with special features like a tough, transparent plastic jacket that exposes the book's spiral binding, printed plastic section dividers, a pull-out text by the prominent Los Angeles novelist and film critic Steve Erickson, two posters, numerous gatefolds and a sound chip. Dramatic and typically unique, this volume explores the geography of bookmaking just as Hawkinson's artwork explores the geography of the human form.
Tim Hawkinson was born in San Francisco in 1960 and currently lives and works in Los Angeles. He has shown his work extensively for more than 25 years--recently at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles.

Condition: Sehr gut. N° 483 / 2000 Ex. 96 Seiten DE: Sehr gutes Exemplar. Einband minimal berieben. - Experimentelle Buchgestaltung, mit einigen Einlagen und Postern sowie eine kleine Sound-Installation. / Zu seinen Themen gehören sein eigener Körper (obwohl einige seiner Arbeiten als Selbstporträts bezeichnet werden könnten), Musik und das Vergehen der Zeit sowie seine künstlerische Auseinandersetzung mit Material, Technik und Prozess. Einige seiner Werke sind mechanisiert (der Mechanismus ist in der Regel vollständig zu sehen) oder beinhalten Klang. Hawkinson ist bekannt dafür, mit überraschend einfachen Mitteln komplexe skulpturale Systeme zu schaffen. Seine Installation "Überorgan" - ein stadiongroßer, vollautomatischer Dudelsack - wurde aus Teilen elektrischer Hardware und mehreren Kilometern aufgeblasener Plastikfolie zusammengebaut. (Wiki) / EN: EN: Very good copy. Binding minimally rubbed. - Experimental book design, with some inserts and posters as well as a small sound installation. / "His themes include his own body (although some of his works could be described as self-portraits), music and the passage of time, as well as his artistic exploration of material, technique and process. Some of his works are mechanised (the mechanism is usually on full display) or incorporate sound. Hawkinson is known for creating complex sculptural systems with surprisingly simple means. His installation "Überorgan" - a stadium-sized, fully automated bagpipe - was assembled from pieces of electrical hardware and several kilometres of inflated plastic sheeting."
