"Sibony’s meticulous engagement with the scavenged object, his reverence for the mundane, has … seemingly been an influence on a host of emerging artists worldwide." –Lauren O’Neill-Butler, Artforum

For over 20 years, Brooklyn-based artist Gedi Sibony (born 1973) has transformed cast-offs and other found materials into spare, elusive works of art, forging an evocative new strain of Minimalism from the salvage of contemporary life. This richly illustrated monograph surveys a decade of his varied production. Featuring newly commissioned texts by art historian Rhea Anastas and artist/poet Renee Gladman, as well as an interview with Sibony by Robert Enright, All These Hands Are Made of Crumbs surfaces points of connection between distinct bodies of work: from the artist's acclaimed series of found paintings cut from the sides of decommissioned semi-trailers to the subtle sculptural objects that, for him, serve as "guideposts for reframing the experience of place."

In Gedi Sibony's sculptural work, cardboard, wood, carpets, plastic sheets and latex paint are embedded into the exhibition rooms' architectural context. His spatial collages oscillate between objectlike appearance and installation-esque ensembles. One could describe them as low-key high art. Born in 1973 in New York, Sibony showed his work at New York's New Museum in 2007.
