Ampersand - Notes on a Collection (Paperback)

If you get hold on texts, articles and interview featuring Ryan Gander, one word will pop-up in particular - storyteller. Through his work he always tries to narrate in form of objects or actions particular feelings or actions, pose questions and maybe sometimes give loose answers. His initial projects involved public lectures and performances, but lately it has evolved into creating articulated stories and emotions through the use of sculpture, real estate projects, architecture or (sometimes) technically complex installations. If you have seen his work for the latest dOCUMENTA in Kassel, Airflow-velocity Study for I Need Some Meaning I Can Memorise (the Invisible Pull), you are surely aware of the complexity of the questions his projects pose to the user, questioning the notions of language and knowledge, a reinvention of the modes of the appearance and creation of the artwork.
