Publisher's Synopsis
Known internationally for her powerful drawings, the work of Chloe Piene has been called brutal, delicate, figurative, forensic, erotic and fantastic. Her large scale video works utilize the greater sensory impact of noise, time, darkness and misrecognition to visibly extend into the more subterranean levels of experience. This new monograph marks the most in-depth representation of her work to date. It includes 40 reproductions of drawings with details, a new arrangement of an installation in three parts, an essay by Barry Schwabsky and an interview of the artist by the artist herself. Piene has shown extensively at institutions such as the Kunsthalle Bern, Switzerland, the Witte de With, the Netherlands and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.
