| Summary: | The first comprehensive monograph on the daring, irreverent and fantastical art of the Haas Brothers. Step into a world where design meets art in the most audacious, subversive and captivating ways. Haas Brothers: Uncanny Valley is the much-anticipated first monograph on the daring, irreverent and fantastical art of Niki and Simon Haas. Known for their boundary-pushing creative practice, the duo work across the fields of art, craft, design and technology with an approach that is at once conceptual, yet formal, and intellectual, yet playful. The book accompanies the first major touring mid-career retrospective devoted to the Haas Brothers at the Cranbrook Art Museum in Michigan in Fall 2025, and highlights more than 100 of their most iconic works, from almost ridiculous, conversation, starting furniture to cheeky life-size sculptures. Rich texts, including first-hand personal stories from the brothers and an interview by avantgarde mother-daughter artists Lita and Isabelle Albuquerque, complement the book's vivid imagery. Featuring a padded, hot pink cover, Haas Brothers: Uncanny Valley proves these iconoclastic visionaries are two of the most exciting and innovative figures in contemporary art and design. |
