Known for his use of familiar objects, icons, and brands in surprising and surreal contexts, Alex Da Corte (b. 1980) often confronts themes of identity, cultural hegemony, and consumerism in his videos, sculptures, paintings, and installations.
In As Long as the Sun Lasts he draws together the beloved Sesame Street character Big Bird and the kinetic sculptural works of Alexander Calder. This compact volume presents images and analysis of the new installation, considering it in the context of his past work and featuring fascinating records of the artist’s process, including sketches and images from his studio. An interview with Da Corte provides further insight into his diverse artistic inspirations, which range from Renaissance painting to horror films, and elaborates on how art history, politics, and religion inform his work.

Great service
Not sure what was non mint about this book but a beautiful copy to complement my table and lure in visitors
I love this store, I have found so many unique titles, both for myself and as gifts for friends and family. There are always fantastic offers and the delivery and service is second-to-none. Plus it’s great to be able to support a smaller business and not continue to put money in the pockets of you-know-who.
Bought this as a Secret Santa present for a friend and know they're going to love it. Arrived on time, excellently packaged and a reasonable price. Very happy with buy. Liam
