Carsten Höller's 'Book of Games' Offers 336 Engaging Activities

German artist Carsten Höller, renowned for his playful and thought-provoking explorations of human behavior and perception, has released a new book. 'Book of Games' offers 336 entertaining and challenging activities for readers, priced at £40. Published by Taschen, the book is available from their website and Amazon. It is edited by Hans Ulrich Obrist and Stefanie Hessler, and features illustrations by renowned artists such as Inez & Vinoodh, Wolfgang Tillmans, Nan Goldin, and Marina Abramovic. The games range from simple and light-hearted to complex and introspective, catering to solo players, pairs, or groups, and requiring no additional props. The book's origins date back to 1992 when Höller created a game with friends during a dinner. This initial idea has now evolved into a comprehensive collection, first published in 2004.
