Thomas Schütte

Thomas Schütte is presented in a comprehensive monograph that gathers more than 100 works spanning five decades of the artist’s career. The Düsseldorf-based creator works across sculpture, drawing, model making and architecture, exploring scales from the minuscule to the monumental. The book examines how his art engages with mechanisms of power, the fall of empire and end-of-world narratives shaped by a culture of societal alienation. It documents five decades of Schütte’s evolving production and situates his practice within a multidisciplinary framework.

Written by Thomas Schütte himself along with Paulina Pobocha and Andre Rottman, the volume offers a curated overview of the artist’s multifaceted approach. Published on 24 September 2024 by the Museum of Modern Art, the hardcover edition provides a substantial, richly illustrated study designed for readers interested in contemporary sculpture and related media. The 232-page book presents a longitudinal perspective on Schütte’s evolving vocabulary, offering insights into his methods, materials and visions across diverse 프로젝트 and contexts.
