January to August: Photographs Paintings and Words by Erik Madigan Heck Premium

“January to August” is a compilation of eight new bodies of work created by Erik Madigan Heck during the corresponding months of 2011. The book is designed as an anthology of these eight different series, including their original artist book covers, serving as an encyclopedia of all bodies of work made throughout the year. The different chapters span personal documentary work from the artist’s childhood, “Chisholm, Minnesota”, to the acclaimed fashion series, “Mary Katrantzou”, made for the young British fashion designer. Other chapters include the ongoing “Artist As Muse” series, which comprises portraits of contemporary artists such as Lawrence Weiner, Gabriel Orozco, and Kiki Smith, merged with fashion by Ann Demeulemeester, Dries Van Noten, and Comme des Garcons. “January to August” also includes the new landscape series, “A Return to Giverny” and Heck’s recent German works, “Tremblant Vielfache”.
