OFF LIMITS
40 Artangel Projects

Working outside the white walls of the gallery or the black box of the theatre or cinema, Artangel has commissioned a series of highly ambitious projects with extraordinary artists in a range of unexpected buildings and landscapes.

Off Limits – 40 Artangel Projects surveys the production of projects such as Rachel Whiteread’s House, Matthew Barney’s Cremaster 4, Douglas Gordon’s Feature Film, Tony Oursler’s The Influence Machine and Jeremy Deller’s The Battle of Orgreave over the past decade.

Looking at each Artangel commission of the past ten years, this book offers a unique insight into the way in which the visions of individual artists are stretched by an engagement with space, history and environment.

Off Limits – 40 Artangel Projects contains commentaries and testimonies by many of the artists with whom Artangel has worked with over the past ten years, as well as extensive photographs of each project. Artangel Co-Directors James Lingwood and Michael Morris are interviewed by Michael Craig-Martin and Lisa Jardine with a series of essays by London-based writers Claire Bishop, Alex Coles, Joe Kerr, Lynn MacRitchie, Alan Read, Jonathan Romney, Adrian Searle and Marina Warner introduce a range of key issues.
