Ed Atkins is one of the most acclaimed artists of his generation. He creates videos, drawings, and texts that engage in a complex discussion about the boundaries of representation of the physical, particularly the bodily world. His work explores the impossibilities of adequate representation, from computer-generated images to poetry.
A Primer for Cadavers is his striking first collection with a selection of texts from 2010 to 2016. Joe Luna describes the texts as a combination of prose, poetry, theatrical directions, and dream images. They form a unique account of a creative process, as if it were a diary of a writer connected to his own work, a contemporary, elegiac, and erotic Frankenstein.
