Tom Burr: Torrington Project

A subversive take on the catalogue raisonné dedicated to the artist's landmark project in a 19th-century factory This artist's book by American conceptual artist Tom Burr (born 1963) documents his three-year occupation of a repurposed 19th-century factory in Torrington, Connecticut. Blurring the boundaries between studio and gallery, art and architecture, and artist and community, Torrington Project featured more than 90 works from Burr's career, serving as both a site for creating new pieces and hosting a dynamic roster of artists, writers, performers, curators, collectors and friends. The publication functions as the project's final element, featuring documentation of Burr's build-out of the space, alongside the works housed within; the artist's diaristic writings about his stewardship of the building; and contributions from scholars, curators and other artists. Subverting the traditional catalogue raisonné, Torrington Project charts the social dimensions that defined the endeavor, underscoring Burr's ongoing engagement with architecture, institutional critique, personal histories and public space.Author: Burr, Tom,contributor,Baker, George,contributor,Carter, Jordan,contributor,Dean, Aria,contributor,Gr Contributors: Burr, Tom,contributor,Baker, George,contributor,Carter, Jordan,contributor,Dean, Aria,contributor,Graf, Jody,contributor,Green, Renée,contributor,Joselit, David,contributor,Messineo, Christine,contributor,Moro, Humberto,contributor,Oetting, Blake,contribu Binding: Paperback Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Published/Release Date: 16 Sep 2025 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Primary Information Author/Director/Artist: Tom Burr Dimension (cm): 297x208x28 mm Package Dimension (cm): 28x297x208 mm Item Weight (g): 1542 Package Weight (g): 1542
