Book Launch
Sandra Peters: Cut Cube
Please join us on October 26, 2022, at 5:00pm in the Reading Room for a conversation with Sandra Peters, art historian Terri Geis, and the NYUAD Art Gallery Director Maya Allison to present Peters’ new book Cut Cube.
The book Cut Cube, (2022) results from Sandra Peters’ interest in the graphic interplay between two- and three-dimensional structures. The 11 possible ways to unfold a cube are laid out on white paper, whereas the seven cuts that make it possible to unfold a cube are printed on transparent paper and related to each of the six sides of each flattened cube. Turning pages generates a flow of information to make the viewer aware of the complex interplay between both types of structures.
The book is published with Motto Books, Berlin/Lausanne. A book signing will follow the discussion.
