This terrific book provides well-done photographs of much of her work, along with an interesting text. I just wish it had the "split coupe" that is strung from floor to floor at the MOMA in San Francisco, but you can't have everything. The next volume of her work will have it, no doubt. Her sculptures remind me of the bridge in William Gibson's recent science fiction - organically grown structures made of the stuff we use (and often throw away) every day, combined with an imaginative vision, spots of nature, and elements we can't quite identify. It is wonderful work - to me she is the most exciting artist out there right now. I'd like to have a large house (very large!) full of everything she's done, but that's not going to happen, so this book is the only way I know of to have so much of it close by.

I have long admired Ms. Sze's work. This book is essential for anyone concerned with contemporary sculture and installation. The pictures are beautifully reproduced. Highly recommended.

First, I'm a huge fan of Sarah Sze's work. Second, this book is done wonderfully. It lets me dance through her installations through the well done photographs. The only thing that would make it better would be video format. But if I just want to wander through her work, this is a great substitute for the real thing.
