This is the first of three volumes documenting the brick works of the Danish artist Per Kirkeby (1938-2018) in their entirety and diversity. This first book focuses on Kirkeby's temporary bric k sculptures made for galleries and museums between 1966 and 2017, as well as a series of temporary stage sets created for theatre and film. For the first time this element of the artist's brick sculptures is assembled and analysed as a whole. Together the three volumes aim to present a complete catalogue and a range of perspectives on Per Kirkeby's relationship with bricks spanning five decades.
