A richly illustrated catalogue accompanies 'Cai Guo-Qiang: Falling Back to Earth'. The exhibition's interrelated themes of nature, spirituality and globalisation are a focus of the publication in essays by Australian and international authors, with extensive documentation of the artist's new works. Cai Guo-Qiang also writes on a significant, but lesser-known, aspect of his practice -- his collaborations with children. The publication will also trace Cai's unique history with QAGOMA, as one of the first public institutions to collect the artist's work. It follows his early career inclusion in the 'Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art' (1996 and 1999) to the presentation, in 2013, of major new works by an artist at the height of his international career.

<p>The perspective of one of the most influential contemporary artists on the complex web of conceptual and material connections between China and the Arab world. Saraab (“mirage” in Arabic) is the catalog of Cai Guo-Qiang’s first solo exhibition in the Middle East. It is a journey of personal and artistic discovery that demonstrates the emotional breadth of Cai’s work, from the intimate to the spectacular. Featuring the artist’s characteristic use of symbols and stories about local history and transnational movements, the book is inspired by the multilayered history of the artist’s hometown of Guangzhou, China, and it illuminates the long-standing but little-known relationship between China and the Arab world dating back to the ancient maritime Silk Road. It features conversations between Cai Guo-Qiang and scholars on Sino-Arab history and a monographic essay on the artist by Yuko Hasegawa, as well as images of never-before-published early works.</p>
