This original monograph on the work of the Los Angeles-based artist accompanies the first major North American exhibition in over twenty years and documents site-specific paintings and other works created especially for this occasion.

Several of his iconic works are featured and discussed. Richard Jackson has exhibited at Galerie Nationale du Jeu de Paume (Paris), Hauser &amp; Wirth (Zurich), David Zwirner Gallery (New York) and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Product Description 
Franco-Romanian artist Mircea Cantor (b. 1977) is a nomad who seeks to shine a light on the malfunctions of the human being through the lens of contemporary society. Subtly poking fun at our traditions, he criticizes the world, politics, and the phenomenon of globalization, all the while focusing on human aspirations. In the tradition of Marcel Duchamp, Cantor makes use of ready-made objects or iconography to expose the ambiguity of our daily life. The media he chooses is diverse - video, animation, sculpture, drawings, paintings and installations - and the visual effects of his works are often ambiguous, leaving interpretation up to the viewer's discretion. This thoroughly illustrated monograph documents Mircea Cantor's first solo exhibition in Canada.

Mircea Cantors work has been the subject of solo and group exhibitions around the world, including at Tate Modern, Centre Pompidou, Tel Aviv Museum of Art, and the Walker Art Center. He is the 2011 recipient of the prestigious Marcel Duchamp prize.
