A stunning full-colour art book and the first to explore the career of award-winning visual artist Sandra Meigs

Part philosopher, part filmmaker, performer, writer, tinkerer, prankster, conjurer, naturalist, upholsterer, and teacher, Sandra Meigs has typically been referred to as a painter. But she engages whatever media or form she chooses to probe to the limits of the ideas circulating in her work.

Meigs's work has been presented across Canada, the U.S., and Europe; it is represented in major public and corporate collections; and, among many accolades, she received the Governor General's Award in Visual and Media Arts in 2015 and the prestigious Gershon Iskowitz Prize in 2015.

The book tracks how Meigs herself understands her art and her career, a story told through 17 major projects that best demonstrate her preoccupations; four essays written by Meigs and accompanied by sketches original to the book; as well as long-term research and investigations. The Way Between Things: The Art of Sandra Meigs samples a prolific and extraordinary artistic oeuvre.

Industry Reviews

“Energy, fearlessness, and commitment to the prompting of the imagination are the qualities I attribute to the art of Sandra Meigs. I don’t know if Sol LeWitt would have recognized her as a conceptual artist, but she definitely fulfills his dictum that ‘irrational thoughts should be followed absolutely and logically.’ The rigor with which she realizes her dark projects is in itself a joy. I envy Helen Marzolf for having been able to immerse herself so deeply in this oeuvre which is, as she concludes, ‘disarming, mysterious but unfailingly familiar, and ultimately transformative.’” — Barry Schwabsky, art critic, poet, and author of The Perpetual Guest: Art in the Unfinished Present (2016) and The Observer Effect: On Contemporary Painting (2020)
