{"product_id":"18025-tadashi-kawamata","title":"Tadashi Kawamata","description":"\u003cp\u003eAs part of a new approach to collecting, Kunsthaus Zug made an agreement with Tadashi Kawamata for a collaboration over several years. Instead of increasing the gallery\u0026#39;s material stock, it involved realising an unusual project in public space. As a result, since 1996 the Japanese artist has created various wooden installations as stages of his Work in Progress in Zug. Together they mark out a path linking the Kunsthaus, the old town and the lakeside area. It begins with a wooden pathway at Burgbachplatz, which leads out from the museum, the aesthetic refuge of art, into the city and ends in a park-like idyll with a footpath at \u0026quot;Brüggli\u0026quot;. You can look back down on the city from a wooden platform. In between are an arena at Landsgemeindeplatz laid out like an amphitheatre and ten little bathing huts on the lakeshore beach, with a board wall like a hedge that screens off the bathing area. With a photo-essay by Guido Baselgia, this book documents Kawamata\u0026#39;s four years of work: a trip through Zug that invites us \u0026quot;to a walk along the borders between nature and culture\u0026quot; (Neue Zürcher Zeitung). The artist: Tadashi Kawamata, born 1953 in Hokkaido, Japan. Numerous exhibitions, including 1982 Venice Biennale; participant in documenta VIII and IX in Kassel. \u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44461016678664,"sku":"9783775790017","price":40.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775790017_0800ccf9-e306-4b8d-bea8-514d9fafd176.jpg?v=1744138379","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/18025-tadashi-kawamata","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
