Monumento

MONUMENTO is the second book dedicated to the work of Alexandre da Cunha. Born in Rio de Janeiro in 1969, the artist is based in London and Sao Paulo. His practice has largely been dedicated to sculpture, based on ideas of readymade and found objects, which he re-signifies, inviting the viewers the see them through a new perspective. In the last few years, Da Cunha has taken these ideas to a monumental scale, with commissions of site-specific works in places such as Boston, London, and Sao Paulo. These large-scale installations constitute the core of MONUMENTO.
