Summary:
This first monograph compiles 13 pieces by the Dutch-born artist Jan Hendrix related to his architecture and urban projects. Based in Mexico since 1978, Hendrix has worked across a variety of media from sculptures, to photographs to artist’s books. This collection of his monumentally scaled, intricate perforated metal screens shows his transition from two to three dimensions. Either as functional screens for lighting in large civic projects, exterior building treatments or stand-alone installations in the manner of Dan Graham, Hendrix’s art has transformed itself to architecture. The natural patterns and fractal geometries of his recent works sing in this generously illustrated, linen-bound volume, accompanied by essays on Hendrix’s relationship to historical movements like Jugendstil and individual project profiles on each included work.
