The new artist's book by Paul McCarthy (* 1945 in Salt Lake City) presents one of the artist's most significant works: The Box (1999). The work is a displaced sculpture of McCarthy's entire studio.The box is tipped ninety degrees on its side, its contents, fixed to their surfaces, appear to defy gravity and taunt the viewer's perception of right-side-up. This radical displacement is repeated in the design of the catalog, thereby creating an object that functions as yet another haptic inversion.
