One of the visionary multimedia artists of our time, Doug Aitken
has worked in every medium: from architecture and photography, to
sculpture and film, to installations and interventions. While
Aitken's art varies in both theme and context, his installations
encourage audience interaction and communal gathering, whether this
is accomplished by staging a series of happenings, such as those
that took place at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, during his
Sleepwalkers exhibition in 2007, or by the creation of large-scale,
outdoor installations such as 2009's Sonic Pavilion in Brazil,
where he amplified the sounds of the Earth. His film and
photography often explore themes of displacement and travel, united
by his keen awareness of motion, sound, and color that come
together to create his signature, dreamlike landscapes and the
futurist aesthetic for which he has become known. His projects defy
convention, creating new perspectives by challenging traditional
linear narratives. Aitken has collaborated with talents from a
broad range of disciplines, from Werner Herzog and Rem Koolhaas to
Lou Reed. This beautifully designed book, made in close
collaboration with the artist, is the first to examine Aitken's
artistic development and surveys his work in all mediums.
