Carmen Perrin: Contexts - Public Situations

Carmen Perrin: Contexts - Public Situations

Softcover | 22.96 x 1.6 x 28.09 cm | 192 pp

Birkhäuser | 2004 | 9783764370985

Challenging European cultural conventions, the work of Swiss-Bolivian artist Carmen Perrin (b.1953) is infused with fine undertones and references to her Latin American roots. In her preference for industrial mass-produced materials she transposes electric wire, cables and building materials into a subtle, ambiguous imagery and sculptures which activate the surrounding space.

This publication presents 15 of her art-in-architecture interventions: in the Zurich headquarters of the Swiss National Bank, the Dock Midfield Terminal of Zurich- Kloten Airport, Lucerne's Gynaecological Hospital and further projects in France, Brazil, USA and Switzerland.
