註釋This is a stunning overview of the entire oeuvre of the contemporary art duo, Young & Giroux. Daniel Young and Christian Giroux have been making art together for nearly ten years. Their sculpture, public art and film installations are the product of an ongoing conversation concerning mid-century modernity, and the production of space and the built environment. This first in-depth monograph provides a career overview as well as an exploration of the duo's most emblematic project, Beta Boole - sculptures involving IKEA furniture. The term Boole comes from the 3D computer modelling operation of adding and subtracting simple forms to generate more complex ones. These pieces of furniture provide both a recognizable and vernacular set of domestic forms, which perversely realize the Modernist goal of universal design through the machinations of globalization.
