Introduction by Emily Wei Rales. Text by Roni Horn, Gary Indiana.

Exploring wide-ranging topics including human nature, ecology, identity, landscape, and language, Roni Horn’s (born 1955) practice intermingles material and context, complicating relationships between object, subject, and viewer in the process. This two-volume catalogue features works such as Ant Farm, 1974, a living colony of ants sealed between two panes of glass; Pink Tons, 2008, a four-ton cube of casted pink glass; and Gold Field, 1982, a sheet of pure, annealed gold that measures a fraction of a millimeter thick. Produced in collaboration with the artist, Roni Horn includes an essay by writer, filmmaker, and visual artist Gary Indiana; a photo-essay by Jerry Gorovoy; a text written by the artist; and an extensive section of plates illustrating every work Roni Horn in Glenstone’s collection, spanning four decades of the artist’s career.
