These images of the artists’ figurative and abstract sculptures bring their immersive presentation—comprising emotionally, psychologically, and politically resonant scenes—to life once again.The book also assembles archival photographs of Elmgreen & Dragset’s past exhibitions at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the 53rd Venice Biennale in 2009, and other venues, as well as images of their iconic public works around the world, including Prada Marfa (2005) and Bent Pool (2019).
