This vibrant artist book and trim monograph preserves the playfulness of Yoes’ beloved Building 6 installation, Hot Corners, wherein the artist transforms a 142-foot space into a multi-room, immersive complex with thematic forms and functions. Each of the installation’s five rooms — the Foyer, the Parlor, the Library, the Theatre, and the Drawing Room — are designed with custom-built mobile furniture acting as shifting set pieces for a variety of functions including artmaking, socializing, reflection, and performance. The catalogue is a gorgeous document of the MASS MoCA project and a deep dive into Yoes’ visual vocabulary.
8.25” x 5.5”, 160 pages, Hardcover. Design by Jorge Colombo. Essays by Glenn Adamson and Alastair Gordon, and a conversation between Amy Yoes and curator Denise Markonish.
