Stephen Talasnik's intricate and mesmerizing work bridges the
disciplines of art and architecture in this debut monograph. A
polymath whose work encompasses sculpture, drawing, and
architectural land art, Stephen Talasnik manifests an elaborate and
evocative aesthetic vision. Inspired by visionary artists and
architects such as Leonardo da Vinci, Giovanni Piranesi, Gustav
Eiffel, Antoni Gaudi, and Buckminster Fuller, Talasnik presents a
fantastical world that looks as archaeological as it does
futuristic. Unearthed presents a broad spectrum of Talasnik's work
spanning the last decade, starting with floating sculptures
commissioned by the Denver Botanic Garden, continuing on through
projects at Storm King Art Center and Russel Wright Design Center,
and culminating with a 30-foot-high timber sculpture at the new,
highly lauded Tippet Rise Art Center in Montana. The publication of
Unearthed coincides with the first exhibition at Tippet Rise
devoted to a single artist. Numerous examples of Talasnik's
drawings are also included, as well as smaller-scale indoor and
outdoor sculptures in diverse materials. Several key contributors
help interpret diverse angles of Talasnik's practice, including
renowned art critic Phyllis Tuchman, architect and critic Michael
Sorkin, theorist David Wittenberg, and the late architect Lebbeus
Woods, a close friend to Talasnik. Through these essays and
hundreds of reproductions of Talasnik's spellbinding work,
Unearthed presents the extraordinary visions of an artist on the
cusp of broad recognition.
