A collection of compelling quotations from a rising star in
contemporary art, architecture, and design The work of renowned
contemporary artist Daniel Arsham blurs the lines between art,
architecture, archeology, and design. In his distinctive style, he
takes ancient art works and objects from twentieth-century pop
culture and casts sculptures of them in geological materials such
as quartz or volcanic ash, colliding past, present, and future in
haunted yet playful visions that prompt viewers to question their
everyday surroundings. Gathered from interviews and other sources,
Arsham-isms is a collection of lively, thought-provoking, and
memorable quotations from this exciting young creative talent on a
wide range of subjects-including art, architecture, film, design,
pop culture, the art world, and what it means to be a globally
recognized artist today. Select quotations from the book: "Art
needs to be a little dangerous." "You don't have to own the thing
to be part of it." "This work for me is not about progress. It is
about destruction and growth and where they are able to meet in the
middle."

Daniel Arsham mines lusted-after consumer goods and iconic imagery
to create his conceptual objects and sculptures. The artist then
casts and refinishes his work to imitate the effects of erosion and
subsidence, creating monuments to our present obsessions, as if the
objects were rescued from Pompeii. That same impulse toward
excavation animates many of his installations, which range from
layered broken walls to geodefilled caverns to melting portals.
From room-collapsing environmental installations for today s
leading brands and museums to elaborate set design for classical
dance, Arsham twists elements of architecture to create immersive
aesthetic experiences that appeal to the divided attentions of a
contemporary audience. Presented as an induction manual to Arsham s
covetable world, the book will provide a complete overview of his
practice. Virgil Abloh discusses Arsham s contribution to a
post-media artistic landscape, a thread developed by Hans Ulrich
Obrist in a conversation with the artist that traces art-historical
precedents. Steven Matijcio will discuss the artist s projects and
collaborations, which range from sets for Merce Cunningham s dance
company to clothes and sneakers with streetwear icons Ronnie Fieg
and Adidas to projects with James Franco and Pharrell Williams and
films with Mahershala Ali.
