I am the book Insular Insight. Insulated in my pages, I've got the inside scoop on a different kind of island time. Curator's Notes In all of our travels, the islands of the Seto I nland Sea are some of our favourite places in the world. Consisting of Naoshima, Teshima and Inujima, the islands hold some of the world's best contemporary art and architecture, including works by Tadao Ando, James Turrell and Hiroshi Sugimoto. This compendium delves into the unique interplay of art, architecture and nature on the island by exploring the historical context of its development, specific sites and projects and the cultural concepts that the islands take on. Featuring essays by Peter Sloterdijk and beautiful photography that captures the small details of an artwork and expansive views of the landscape, Insular Insight offers a comprehensive look into a place like no other.
