Elmgreen & Dragset: Spaces is the first comprehensive publication to focus exclusively on the artist duo’s large-scale installations. Since the early 2000s, Elmgreen & Dragset have transformed conventional exhibition spaces into both familiar and unexpected environments. These spaces invite visitors to question the social, cultural, and political structures that pervade everyday life. Art historical essays and comprehensive desriptions of past exhibitions provide an illuminating overview of important aspects of their work.

Michael Elmgreen (b. 1961, Copenhagen) and Ingar Dragset (b.1969, Trondheim) are based in Berlin and have worked together as an artist duo since 1995. They have held solo shows worldwide at institutions including the Tate Modern and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, UCCA Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing, the National Gallery of Denmark in Copenhagen, Fondazione Prada in Milan, and Centre Pompidou in Metz. They have been awarded several prizes, including the 2002 Preis der Nationalgalerie in Berlin and a Special Mention in 2009 for their exhibition The Collectors in the Danish and the Nordic Pavilions at the 53rd Venice Biennale.
