4° and 8°. OPp. OSchuber. This two-volume slipcased publication is produced on the occasion of Day Jackson's exhibitions at Blum's two New York galleries. The first volume, The Tomb / In Search of, records one of the artist's most powerful works: a sculpture of eight astronaut pallbearers (rendered from scraps of wood and plastic) carrying a life-size figure enshrined in a glass case, titled The Tomb. Based on a fifteenth-century sculpture by Antoine Le Moiturier, The Tomb carries echoes of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, Day Jackson's own mortality and Paul Thek's 1967 Tomb. In Search of, the Film is based upon the eponymous 1970s TV series hosted by Leonard Nimoy, which investigated paranormal phenomena. Day Jackson's video looks at varieties of anthropomorphism in our view of other life forms, the allegories of artists journeys and the transmission of history through artifacts. - 2 Bände in bedrucktem Schuber, tadellos.…

First Edition. 24 x 30cm near fine hardback the most extensive monograph on the work of the artist to date. Has a Hauser & Wirth library stamp at foot of title page. Large-format images provide an overview of Jackson's work and show the development of his multilayered practice from 2003 until today. Featuring essays and interviews by internationally renowned authors, the book offers rich insight into various aspects of Matthew Day Jackson's prolific oeuvre.

Through a variety of art forms - sculpture, painting, installation, photography, and video - Jackson's technically complex works condense historical facts into a deeply descriptive aesthetic fabric. In a continuous confrontation with American history, the artist challenges firmly established perspectives of the world with a unique combination of ingenuity and craft. In the form of an artistic debate on the substance and future of the American Dream, Jackson weaves its aftereffects into his works. In this process, the artist's self-mythologisation invariably lies at the core of his wide-ranging modes of production, thus contextualizing the physicality and destructive results of the human power of invention.A very heavy book, may need extra postage. …
