Simon Starling
Exhibition catalogue for Simon Starling: The Nanjing Particles. For this exhibition, Simon mined the history of North Adams and found a stereograph of Chinese workers in front of a mill on the grounds currently occupied by the museum. Simon pulled two particles from the photograph, three-dimensionally scanned them, and blew them up into the two amorphous sculptures in the gallery. At the entrance of the exhibition is a large wall wallpapered with the stereograph with two holes signifying where the particles were extracted from. The die-cut cover references this wall.
