Pierre Huyghe at the Serpentine Gallery

This publication is a survey of Pierre Huyghe’s practice from the last ten years: ‘The Host and the Cloud’ (2009-2010) took place in a former museum in Paris; ‘Untilled’ (2012) was developped during documenta (13); more‘After ALife Ahead’ (2017) was conceived in a disused ice rink as part of Skulptur Projekte Münster; ‘UUmwelt’ (2018), which was installed first at the Serpentine Galleries in London, and later at Luma Arles, is the culmination of a ground-breaking approach to exhibitions. A conversation between Hans Ulrich Obrist and an essay by Dorothea von Hantelmann offer a comprehensive discussion of this period. Drawings, diagrams, plans, text and reference images, photographs and film stills add to over 400 pages and make this an important reference book.
