While the Berlin-based Olaf Nicolai's work is always concerned with nature--his 2005 Venice Biennale piece Welcome to the Tears of St. Lawrence distributed publicity for a forthcoming meteor shower and information on where to watch it--his methods have been as roundabout as designing a new bus line and shelters, never implemented, for the city of Liverpool. This new catalogue is conceived as an artist's book, a working sketchbook or workbook, and as the conceptual continuation of his sold-out self-titled 2002 monograph. Among his central works since then, readers will find materials from Welcome to the Tears of St. Lawrence, here introduced to a wider audience for the first time, as well as 23 other works, each of which is introduced on a double-page spread with images and an informative text.
