Anish Kapoor (2011)

This book, designed by the artist himself, was conceived as a leporello, a cardboard book with pages you can unfold like an accordion. Gathering 10 previously unseen gouaches made in 2011, the book also holds an introduction text by Marie-Laure Bernadac, who was in charge of the contemporary art collection at the Louvre.

This book is a reproduction of Anish Kapoor’s sketchbook, which he calls his “black book”, referring to the dominant hue. Unfamiliar to the public, Kapoor’s drawings are captivating and invites us to a breath-taking  plunge in the mind of the artist and inside our own unconscious

Condition: very good
