Cornelia Parker's art is a powerful exploration of destruction, resurrection, and transformation. Driven by a relentless curiosity, she reconfigures familiar objects to challenge our perception of the world and address pressing issues of our time, including violence, ecology, and human rights. This comprehensive publication traces Parker's career, from her early works to iconic installations such as "Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View" (1991), where she had a garden shed blown up, to "Perpetual Canon" (2004), featuring brass band instruments steamrollered flat, and "War Room" (2015), which immerses viewers in a war-torn environment. The book also showcases her diverse practice, encompassing monumental collective embroidery, films, and innovative drawings, prints, and photographs. Parker's work has been commissioned by a wide range of individuals, groups, and institutions, including the British Army, The Royal Mint, Abbey Road Studios, prisoners, school children, The Daughters of the Republic of Texas, whistleblowers, and the UK Parliament. In a new, extended interview with Tate Britain Director of Exhibitions and Displays Andrea Schlieker, Parker shares her insights and reflections on her art, while a selection of writers and collaborators provide additional perspectives. Cornelia Parker is a captivating and authoritative survey of one of Britain's most beloved and acclaimed artists.
