Mary Miss

This book represents a long-awaited, comprehensive monograph on the work of artist and sculptor Mary Miss, spanning almost 30 years of creative production. It showcases 36 of Miss's projects and realized works, documented in photographs (by the artist herself), models, and drawings. Miss is acclaimed for her projects involving the landscape, but, as the book amply demonstrates, she is now taking an increasing interest in the urban context. The urban works presented in the book offer inspiration to a wide audience of clients and designers, who are eager to utilize the residual, neglected spaces in our cities that have the potential to become public amenities. This book will be of great interest to artists in diverse media, and even more so to design practitioners in a variety of disciplines encompassing landscape art, urban design, architecture and interiors.
