Rachel Whiteread (Londra 1963) è una delle artiste più importanti della sua generazione. Sin dal 1988, dopo essersi laureata alla Slade School of Fine Art, Whiteread ha utilizzato per le sue sculture calchi di oggetti quotidiani: lo spazio sotto le sedie e i letti e all'interno di armadi, vasche da bagno e interni di case viene invertito cosicché il vuoto diventa solido, il negativo si trasforma in positivo. Attraverso la descrizione dell'assenza, l'artista riesce comunque a far emergere associazioni sensoriali grazie anche all'uso di materiali quali poliuretano, resine, gesso e gomma che acuiscono la percezione di qualcosa che non esiste più, ma che una volta era indissolubilmente legato alla vita umana. Il suo interesse si sposta progressivamente verso l'architettura intesa come spazio della collettività e della storia. La retrospettiva di Napoli è la prima mostra museale della Whiteread in Italia. Per l'occasione l'artista ha creato anche una grande installazione pensata appositamente per gli spazi dell'istituzione partenopea, utilizzando decine di case di bambola di varie epoche fino a formare un villaggio immaginario, reminiscente le ricostruzioni storiche negli allestimenti museali dei siti archeologici, analizzando e decostruendo la nostra percezione critica dei contesti abitativi.

Rachel Whiteread: Transient Spaces Exhibition Organized by Lisa Dennison with Craig Houser, at Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin, Oct 27, 2001- Jan 13,2002 hardcover in dustjacket. Guggenheim Museum Pubns, 2001 A Guggenheim Museum Publication Rachel Whiteread (b. 1963) creates spare, poetic sculptures that challenge perceptions of the commonplace. Working from everyday domestic items, she casts-in rubber, concrete, plaster, and polyester resin-the negative spaces inside closets and underneath beds, sinks, bathtubs, and chairs. Now, in what may be her most personal project to date, the Turner Prize-winning artist has been commissioned by Deutsche Guggenheim Berlin to make two large-scale casts from distinct spaces in a London building that she recently purchased to become her home and studio. Although the building has a history as both a synagogue and a factory, it is a product of austere postwar architecture, lacking many of the traditional embellishments associated with such structures. This fully illustrated volume documents Whiteread's process as she creates casts from this religious-cum-industrial-cum-personal space, which blurs boundaries between the spiritual and secular, as well as the public and private. 75 illustrations in full color, 170 pages, 9 x 11" 'very good, light jacket wear, clean and tight".
