MIRAGE

Between 2017 and 2021, Doug Aitken (1968, Redondo Beach, California, USA) moved suburbia to the Sonoran Desert, a defunct Detroit bank, and the Swiss Alps, cladding a ranch-style house in mirrors that camouflaged it in landscapes far removed from the familiar lawn and picket fence. Handmade with cold foils, silver printing, an exposed spine, and leporello binding, Mirage is an immersive chronicle of Aitken’s iconic site-specific installations with photographs, architectural drawings, an interview with the artist, as well as an essay by curator Neville Wakefield.
