Publisher's Synopsis
'To the Moon via the Beach' was a three-day exhibition in the Amphitheatre in Arles. Using tons of sand specially shipped there, the iconic arena was transformed into a beach and, during a process of non-stop activity co-ordinated by Willem Stijger, slowly mutated into a moonscape. This book offers a complete record of the event, and presents chronological photographic documentation, allowing the event to be reconstructed and understood as a whole.
