description: This new volume presents Anish Kapoor's recent landmark installation "Taratantara", a site-specific work set in a flourmill in northeastern England, on the coast of the Baltic Sea. The work consists of a red membrane inserted into the mill's open wall--a massive, sublime object that at a distance appears flat and extradimensional, but upon a closer look reveals its concavity and its organic materiality. It is a work that plays with our perceptions, inspiring awe and a sense of transcendence. The accompanying book documents the process of creating the installation, from its earliest stages to its dismantling, along with essays exploring the piece itself and its place within this artist's astounding and singular oeuvre.
