Many of his early sculptures are large wooden constructions composed of objects that have collided: in one example, a spaceship nearly flattens a wooden barn. These works are filled with metaphors of heroic and anti-heroic acts and of the collision of good and evil in human nature. In his films, characters perform mysterious tasks with elaborately constructed tools that become unending necessary labors, thereby threatening the boundaries between human and machine.\u003cBR\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003eThis monograph features a new film, several sculptures being shown for the first time ever, drawings and photographs, as well as early two-dimensional works by Larson that contribute to the narrative of his films and sculptural installations. \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2 face=TheSans\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003e\u003cFONT face=TheSans\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Rochester Art Center, Rochester, September 27, 2008-January 17, 2009\u003cSPAN style=\"mso-spacerun: yes\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u003c\/SPAN\u003eAnd further venues\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003eBook presentation in the Galerie magnusmüller, Berlin, fall 2008\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874819043592,"sku":"9783775722322","price":29.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775722322_33f07a46-0a17-485f-baa8-bfb62f8fb8cb.jpg?v=1744051385","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16018-chris-larson","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
