About this title

Synopsis

Berlin-based brothers Jan and Tim Edler have gained renown for their artistic interventions to cutting edge architecture around the world. Often they work with lighting and engineering systems, imposing them onto the existing facades and spaces of celebrated buildings. The pair is considered leaders of a contemporary trend where sculpture and media art are of more architectural importance than function. Most of their work has involved a radical dialogue with renowned architects. For their first monograph, Realities: United say thank you by featuring the work and commentary of many of their fashionable collaborators alongside their own output. The book is a gallery of contemporary talent, with contributions from more than 60 contemporary architects, writers and media artists. Plus Jackie Chan.
