<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>The most comprehensive overview of the politically charged work of the Iraqi-American conceptual artist behind the acclaimed cookbook <i>A House with a Date Palm Will Never Starve</i></strong></p><p>Sculptor, draftsman and sometime chef, Chicago-based Iraqi-American artist Michael Rakowitz (born 1973) takes his cue from the histories of buildings and objects to create enthralling environments, objects and interventions. Among his best-known works is his full-scale recreation of a winged bull sculpture from 700 BCE entirely clad in Iraqi date cans, installed in Trafalgar Square in London; another was his <i>Enemy Kitchen</i>, for which Rakowitz compiled Baghdad recipes with the help of his mother and then taught them to public audiences. <p/>This fully illustrated survey of his most important works is accompanied by an essay by Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, an interview with Michael Rakowitz by Iwona Blazwick and a range of perspectives contributed by Habda Rashid, Nora Razian, Ella Shohat and Marianna Vecellio.</p>
