E.A.T. / Engadin Art Talks, the forum in Zuoz in the crystalline
winter-wonderland of the Swiss Alps, takes place at the end of
January each year and has become famous as a meeting point for
thought leaders and disruptive minds. The event is curated by
Daniel Baumann, director of the Kunsthalle in Zurich, Bice Curiger,
artistic director of the Vincent van Gogh Museum in Arles, Hans
Ulrich Obrist, artistic director of the Serpentine Galleries in
London, and Philip Ursprung, a history of art and architecture
professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in
Zurich. Thinking in Thin Air makes it possible to experience the
ideas of the artists, architects, and scientists who gather every
winter to exchange thoughts of social-political relevance and
visions of the future of art. On the occasion of the tenth
anniversary of Engadin Art Talks, this book provides an insight
into the special atmosphere of this event. Designed like a
pinboard, it can be read from any direction. It presents works by
the participants, and offers a fascinating insight into the
thinking and practice of some of the most important artists of our
time in the form of essays, sketches, and works of art.
The American artist Sarah Morris talks with the curator Hans Ulrich
Obrist about her films and paintings. Discussion includes her
longtime interest in urban development, and architects including
Philip Johnson, Mies van der Rohe, Robert Venturi and others.
