Where it came from
Published in 1986 by Cantz, this monograph serves as an early documentation of the German artist Thomas Schütte’s practice. Emerging from the vibrant Düsseldorf art scene of the 1980s, the book reflects the conceptual shift in post-war European art, where Schütte began moving away from traditional sculpture to explore architectural models and figurative forms that questioned the role of public monuments and memory.
The publication was designed to provide a cohesive visual survey of Schütte's formative works, capturing his interest in spatial arrangements and the dialogue between sculpture and its environment. It was received as a critical resource for understanding his departure from minimalism, offering insight into the ironic, often melancholic aesthetic that would later define his international reputation as one of the most influential sculptors of his generation.
