{"product_id":"9783865605979","title":"Simon Starling: Under Lime","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn his provocative installation works, UK conceptualist Simon Starling tells stories about natural and cultural processes of transformation. \"He displaces, inverts, reserves and remakes existing things with self-conscious, ironic amateurishness. He is a tinkerer with objects of design and bits of history, an alchemist of arcana and late modernism,\" according Michael Kimmelman of \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e. This volume presents three projects by Starling: in \"Kakteenhaus,\" (2002), an Andalusian cactus is transplanted to Berlin's winter, where a converted automotive engine ensures its survival; \"Plant Room\" (2008) creates a mud-brick chamber for sensitive historical photographs; and for \"Under Lime\" (2009), Starling cut a lime branch from the nearby \"Unter den Linden\" boulevard and grafted it beneath the Kunsthalle's rafters.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Walther Konig","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47038371234032,"sku":"9783865605979","price":46.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783865605979_p0.jpg?v=1763700169","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783865605979","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
