More DescriptionCollectively titled Architectones after Kazimir Malevich's three-dimensional extrapolations of his Suprematist paintings, the various art and architectural projects presented in this book partake in the revolutionary idealism of a period in which it was possible to at least imagine transforming social life from the ground up by way of a new plan and model for building. Xavier Veilhan returns here to his favorite non-traditional exhibition format--installations and site-specific works in architecturally-significant spaces. The artist takes on the specters of modernism, altering the buildings through sculpture, music, light and the interaction between site and guests.
