Pre-order – publishing on 12th March
The conceptual art practice of Cerith Wyn Evans encompasses installations, sculpture, film and text, translating ideas from philosophy, art history, film and literature into lyrical, often monumental, site-specific exhibitions. This publication provides valuable insight into Evans’ wide-ranging practice, as well as a document to the artist’s 2025–26 exhibition of the same name – Forms in Space…through Light (in Time) – at Lisbon’s MAAT – Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology.
Featuring specially commissioned photographs of Evans’ complex, captivating works in situ, the title includes an introduction by exhibition curator Sérgio Mah, who also conducts an interview with the artist, and an essay by Professor Michael Newman.
Using traditional ‘unopened’ (intonso – Italian) binding, the book invites readers to make it their own by opening each page to discover more, making clear distinction between the two finishes used on the paper stock.
