Dennis Oppenheim: Public Projects

This is a superbly illustrated exploration of the latest large-scale works from acclaimed contemporary artist Dennis Oppenheim. Dennis Oppenheim (b. 1938) is one of the most adventurous contemporary American artists working today. For more than four decades, he has used every artistic medium available - writing, performance, video and film, photography, land art, and installation - to present his unique creative vision. This magnificently illustrated volume explores Oppenheim's latest sculptural work, focusing on his models and large-scale installations for public spaces - including a worm-like bus station, flying caravans, and habitable pylons. "Dennis Oppenheim Public Projects" also looks at the artist's extraordinary new three-part installation 'Tumbling Mirages' at the Marta Herford Gallery, Germany.
