Publisher's Synopsis

This huge book nearly 700 pages long is the largest on contemporary sculpture yet to appear. It is itself an object. The sequence creates an artistic vision of the future with reference to H.G.Wells and Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece, the film2001.The objects presented are derived from every conceivable material and vary from abstract arrangements to re-configurations of everyday forms in magnificent transformations of the mundane, such as giant electric sockets, to the recurring theme of the human body.

With an introduction by Meghan Dailey
