More artist’s book than monograph, this volume traces the exciting interplay between Iman Issa’s (b. 1979) objects, photos , text and video. Is an artwork at the mercy of the viewer’s interpretation, and does its meaning change accordingly? Can art in turn shape perception, or even change memory itself?
This book delivers an impression of the questions and themes that preoccupy Iman Issa, an internationally renowned artist who has exhibited at MoMA, MACBA in Barcelona, and the Kunsthalle Lissabon. Curated and designed in direct collaboration with the artist, it brings together central works from the past twenty years, an interview and an introduction to her work, as well as an anthology of personally selected texts that relate to Issa’s work and interests.
