Text by Klaus Ottmann, Guy Tosatto, Federico Squarcini.
Published by Fondazione MerzFor his recent show at the Fondazione Merz, German conceptual artist Wolfgang Laib (born 1950) fashioned an installation of hundreds of small rice mountains, a line of small mountains of pollen and a great mountain of beeswax. Laib elucidates the symbolism thus: "The pollen recalls the beginning and creation; the rice mountains and the beeswax Ziggurat and the bond of the sky with the earth."

Essays by Philippe Büttner, Katharina Schmidt and Christoph Vitali. Conversations with Ulf Kster and Harald Szeemann.
Published by Hatje Cantz PublishersWolfgang Laib's extraordinarily concentrated installations are touching in an immediate and fundamental way, perhaps because they also address various levels of early childhood consciousness. Beeswax tunnels are redolent with an overwhelming scent of sweet honey and pollen; powdery piles of pollen are such a luminous yellow that you want to put your hands in them and play. Visitors to the installations are opened up, become aware of the energetic presence of the natural materials shown, and are prepared for a spiritual and intellectual encounter with the work's symbolic content. This retrospective monograph establishes the unique position and great power of Laib's work.

Artwork by Wolfgang Laib. Contributions by Necmi Sonmez.
Published by Hatje Cantz PublishersThe silent photographs Wolfgang Laib takes on his travels are perhaps best understood as an attempt to grasp at a fleeting and intangible essence, at the ephemeral, which, according to Laib, is eternal. Many of these images belie a fascination with non-European notions of spirituality, with religions that are embedded in everyday life, with temples and monuments that exert a force in the present. Laib's almost meditative pictures capture the aura of everyday vistas, and often preempt ideas later manifested in his sculptures and installations.

Essay by Guy Tosatto.
Published by Hatje Cantz PublishersOpposite the Pic du Canigou, the holy mountain of the Catalonians and the last high peak before the Pyrenees descend into the Mediterranean, Wolfgang Laib has created a timeless, sublime space that seems to have grown naturally from the earth. Accessible only by footpath, "The Room of Certitudes" is a rock chamber chiseled out of granite, its walls lined with beeswax, its only opening a simple wooden door. Though the cave itself can only be reached after a long hike, it is here transmitted through the artist's own photographs, in a book of his own design.

Edited by Ulrich Krempel.
Published by Hatje Cantz PublishersWolfgang Laib's breathtaking and quietly beautiful artwork draws on the ritual life he leads in and with nature and its processes of becoming and forgetting. Laib's installations in Belvedere Castle, painstakingly documented in this book, afford access to one of the most privileged and poetical spaces of classic Weimar. Laib transports the space into the present, lending it both a sculptural and an imagistic dimension--the highlights include four wax ships, laid out on a simple support on the ground floor, that look as though they have been put aside for some later voyage whose destination is as yet uncertain. These magnificent works of art constitute some of the finest examples of Laib's ability to evoke the personal and human as well as the transcendental and the sublime.
