{"product_id":"84150-sandra-peters-chromed-columns-abu-dhabi","title":"Sandra Peters. Chromed Columns Abu Dhabi","description":"Chromed Columns Abu Dhabi is an artist's book in which sculptor Sandra Peters focuses on an architectural detail in the urban environment where she lives and works. These are chrome-mirrored columns that are ubiquitous in Downtown Abu Dhabi, but also shape the urban landscapes throughout the United Arab Emirates (UAE). In everyday perception, the chrome-mirrored columns on building facades remain inconspicuous, indeed virtually invisible; only in their thematic isolation do they become significant elements of the urban environment, which they absorb as convex mirrors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe photographic documentation of her urban environment is an integral part of Peters' artistic practice. She frequently develops sculptural works from her observations. In Chromed Columns Abu Dhabi, she reverses this relationship: the columns in Abu Dhabi's urban space are architectural details, but Sandra Peters has photographically and thematically isolated them as elements with sculptural potential. For her publication, she has selected 51 photographs. These are presented as a series of full-page illustrations. Further contexts for viewing the photographs are provided by an introductory text by the artist and an essay by architect and urbanism researcher George Katodrytis.","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52749361316104,"sku":"9783775762212","price":36.97,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775762212_120d22b0-bd11-4957-9f4e-85ca5330e3bf.jpg?v=1767692488","url":"https:\/\/hatjecantz.com\/products\/84150-sandra-peters-chromed-columns-abu-dhabi","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
