This publication illustrates the work through extensive installation photography, guiding readers from Gormley's new installation \u003ci\u003eResting Place II\u003c\/i\u003e (2024) to a series of sculptures investigating the relation of body to building, and finally to a group of drawings published here for the first time. Scholars Hou Hanru and Stephen Greenblatt trace the development of this body of work and Gormley's 30-year engagement with China and the surrounding region, and a photo essay by the artist tracks his ongoing dialogue with the region through a series of archival photographs of his first research trip to China in 1995.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Antony Gormley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Skira\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/07\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.5lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 7.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788857254029","brand":"Skira","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45109186363529,"sku":"9788857254029","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_af8869f3-d3e1-42b1-8f54-e825b5f3c61a.jpg?v=1767072768","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/antony-gormley-body-buildings-9788857254029","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
