Description: In 1993 Rachel Whiteread created a work that was hailed as one of the greatest public sculptures made by an English artist in the 20th century. Whiteread's concrete and plaster cast of an entire house in the East End of London attracted equal measures of praise, wonder and controversy. Her monumental sculpture, on view when she won the Turner Prize, attracted some 3,000 visitors a day before it was demolished in January 1994. This book, made in collaboration with the Artangel Trust, documents this remarkable work. Photographs and working drawings chart House's progress from construction to demolition. Six authors contribute their responses, and the book also surveys the spectrum of critical reaction to the work.
