Jaume Plensa
Published by Skira Paris.
Edited by Jean-Louis Andral, Claire Lilley, Jean Frémon.
Jaume Plensa (born 1955) is one of the major figures of contemporary sculpture, best known for his prodigious human figures constructed from stainless steel. Plensa is not only a sculptor, however, and this monograph explores an underappreciated facet of the Spanish artist’s oeuvre: his drawings. As they are not made to order and do not require the help of assistants, the drawings afford Plensa a greater freedom of experimentation. Plensa works with a variety of materials, such as plastic sheets or thick glue on paper or Plexiglas, modulating the interplay between light and transparency, which imbues his two-dimensional works with the appearance of volume. As with his sculptures, the artist focuses on the human figure, which he assembles with photos, letters and numbers. By elucidating the diversity of Plensa’s artistic process, the monograph champions his drawings as works in their own right.

Jaume Plensa: One Thought Fills Immensity
Published by Skira.
Text by Jeremy Strick, Clare Lilley, Brooke Kamin Rapaport, Fumio Nanjo, Catherine Millet.
Internationally celebrated Spanish artist Jaume Plensa (born 1955) has emerged as one of the most significant voices in contemporary sculpture. Over the course of more than 30 years, Plensa has amassed a multifaceted body of work that mixes traditional and unconventional materials on both intimate and monumental scales. Working in steel, cast iron, resin, glass and stone, Plensa has traversed the globe with his public works and international exhibitions including at the Reina Sofia (Spain), Yorkshire Sculpture Park (United Kingdom) and the Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume (France). From the Crown Fountain in Chicago, a modern-day agora in an urban landscape, to Echo, the enormous white sculpted head that greets Seattle's citizens on the shore, Plensa's nomadic practice speaks to the capacity and beauty of humanity. Illustrated in this volume are works on paper and sculpture that highlight his abiding themes.
