Christopher Wool: Bad Rabbit

Bag om Christopher Wool: Bad Rabbit

"Through sheer compulsiveness, the book sharply elucidates the now considerable arc of Wool's engagement with photography for its own sake and for catalyzing the rest of his work." -Randy Kennedy, New York Times In the photographs that make up Bad Rabbit, Christopher Wool (born 1955) works with pieces of fencing wire that he found on the roads and littered backyards of Marfa, Texas. Their shapes reminded him of his own drawing line, and so he explored their sculptural qualities in a series of starkly black-and-white, digitally treated prints. For his sculptural practice, the artist enlarges the wire maquettes and casts them in bronze and steel; in the photo works collected here, the found object becomes a subject of observation, its sculptural form created in its framing and in the subsequent treatment of the images. This is the fifth artist's book in a series by Wool from the same publisher, which has become an important part of the artist's practice. The book comes in an edition of 1,200, each copy signed by the artist.
