The artist examines the narrative potential of symbols and basic geometric shapes through the collage-like interaction of his works with readymades of the simplest materials. His installation \u003cI\u003eLarge Oven\u003c\/I\u003e (2004), realized for the Kunstverein Hamburg, and the spatial project \u003cI\u003eRoof\u003c\/I\u003e (2007), produced for the Kunsthalle Basel, both of which are comprehensively documented for the first time in the present publication, create walk-in scenarios reflecting social, political, and urban realities. Over and beyond these core themes, this monograph with retrospective character presents all of the works Hakimi has produced since 2002.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44873343533320,"sku":"9783775722681","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775722681_c7070eb7-dc58-4d24-8ee5-951343a2254a.jpg?v=1744117276","url":"https:\/\/hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16054-michael-hakimi","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
