Description

This artist's book tells the story of the iconic sculpture "Snowman" by Peter Fischli and David Weiss, from its creation in 1987 to the present day. The book chronicles the sculpture's development in a surprising picture essay, accompanied by an annotated collage that explores its cultural meaning and transformation over time.

The book delves into the snowman's evolution from a symbol of fear to a beloved figure, and examines the shift from traditional energy sources to renewable power over the past 35 years.

Through its unique blend of images and text, this book offers a fascinating insight into the enduring power of art to reflect and shape our understanding of the world around us.
