Each book, edited by a single artist, includes a collection of primary research materials and influences, such as rare archival documents, artwork studies, and excerpts of landmark publications, selected from the artist’s own archive and annotated with personal commentary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eISBN: 9780916365912\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fenrick Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48566441672929,"sku":null,"price":375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/3787\/4867\/files\/IMG_6414_46cb846d-a0b5-4e45-8ecb-15675c04d910.jpg?v=1781658050","url":"https:\/\/fenrickbooks.com\/products\/weerasethakul-apichatpong-sourcebook-the-serenity-of-madness-exhibition-catalog","provider":"Fenrick Books LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
