Beschreibung
Objects of Significance is an artists book that grew out of a series of photographs and writings which Markus Vater collected over several years. They show and describe what matters to the artist: objects fraught with meaning, questions, relationships, memories. It is a creative and philosophical book, as funny as it is serious, delving into questions like: What do you see when you close your eyes and turn your head toward the sun? Or: How much does a cloud weigh? Vater has interviewed the North Sea for the book and ponders the wind. He sheds light on the conditions in which art comes into being and meditates on what holes are. All writings are in English, as the artist lived and worked in London from 1998 until 2021.
