Published on the occasion of Timmermans' exhibitions at Musée Jenish, Vevey, and Kunstmuseum St-Gallen, this book is the first monograph on Ante Timmermans' work. It brings together emblematic drawings and installations from each series made by the artist since the beginning of the 2000s.In this he notably focuses on issues surrounding the nature/culture debate, and the representation of the modern city as a ghost city, a landscape of numerous skyscrapers, a no-man's land. Both poetically ironic and disenchanted, his work is also a meditation on the pregnancy of language and words in our lives.
