Cornelia Parker

Through her sculptures and installations, British artist Cornelia Parker explores the metaphysical dimensions of objects, with both a serious eye toward probing issues of intellectual perplexity, and also humorously suggesting approaches to phenomena such as gravity and ideas about the meaning of objects. By representing things in a state of transition, from solid to volatile, from unit to fragment, from static to movement, she shows how every inanimate object has its own existence: a past, present, and potential that goes beyond its physical appearance at any given moment. This book features new, never-before-published work that has recently been exhibited in Torino, Italy.Blazwick, Iwona is the author of 'Cornelia Parker', published 2001 under ISBN 9788877571267 and ISBN 8877571268.
