About the Book

A captivating visual presentation of Es Devlin's personal and inherently collective art practice, now available in a new compact edition with additional content.

Artist and designer Es Devlin's outstanding works span the fields of art, theatre, opera, dance, fashion, sculpture, poetry, light and music. Her practice has helped engender innovative forms of kinetic sculpture and her creative vision has filled millions of people with wonder: from installations at Tate Modern, kinetic stage designs for Olympic opening ceremonies, and monumental stage sculptures with celebrated musicans globally. Devlin's work is at once deeply personal and inherently collective, engaging with biodiversity, linguistic diversity and collective AI-generated poetry.

Following the success of Devlin's award-winning sculptural monograph, An Atlas of Es Devlin (2023), A Concise Atlas of Es Devlin maintains the experiential design of the original in an accessible, smaller format with thirty new projects from Devlin's recent output, including collaborations with Lady Gaga, Gucci and the V&A. Coinciding with the Design Museum's retrospective of her work opening in London in autumn 2026, the book features Devlin's personal commentaries on each work, as well as interviews with her collaborators including Pharrell Williams and Carlo Rovelli.



About the Author :
Es Devlin is a British contemporary artist known for creating large-scale works that combine light, music and language to encourage the cognitive and behavioural shifts that are becoming ever more urgent in the context of the climate emergency. Her work has been displayed at Tate Modern, Serpentine and the V&A. She has created stage sculptures for Lady Gaga's 2025 Coachella performance, Max Richter and Bad Bunny's 2024 tours, as well as for Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar and The Weeknd.

Review :
[A]n immersive, joyful reading experience, an encyclopedia of creativity, and a tribute to the sculptural possibilities of the printed book. It gives form and substance to the artist's philosophy of why she creates.-- "Print Magazine" Category-defying. . . . An exquisitely produced and immersive artwork in itself, containing photographs, texts, foldouts, pullouts, translucent overlays and cutout pages that reflect the intricacy and imaginative extent of Devlin's processes, from concept to final iteration.-- "The New York Times" From the cardboard sculptures and paintings that developed into stage sets for the 2012 Olympic closing ceremony and the 2022 Super Bowl, to her activism, theater, poetry and more, this 900-page monograph traces. . . . Es Devlin's three-decade-long career across disciplines.-- "The New York Times Book Review" Vibrant photographs of Devlin's stage and arena structures contrast with the simplest of doodles, and everything in between. There are booklets within booklets; there are holes to look through and ideas to imagine. . . . [T]he entire expanse of Devlin's world is mapped out (hence the title) in vivid color and sumptuous design. . . . One of our most brilliant and creative modern artists comes to scintillating life before you.-- "Goldmine"
