This book gives unique insight into the making of Up in the Air, the largest artwork Friedman has made to date for a solo exhibition at Magasin 3 Stockholm Konsthall in 2010. It features an essay by Charlotte Eyerman, art historian, curator and a leading authority in modern and contemporary art, and an exclusive interview with Tom Friedman by Richard Julin, Ccurator and deputy director of Magasin 3 Stockholm Konsthall.
This astonishing work of art consists of nearly a thousand meticulously handcrafted objects suspended from the ceiling at different heights - a project that kept Friedman's studio busy for over two years. Up in the Air invites the observer to enter into Friedman's complex and humorous world. Carefully navigating through the multitude of objects suspended at different heights, one can discover references to popular culture, science, politics and religion. By posing fundamental philosophical questions, Friedman aims to "slow down the process of looking" in a world of information overload.
