The idea began with two islands: the reclaimed marshland called Zuidas in central Amsterdam, and the youngest island in the world, Surtsey, off the coast of Iceland. Zuidas is a glossy, dense, modern business district; Surtsey an uninhabited volcanic environment accessible only for research. This beautifully conceived book documents a temporary art project dreamed up by the artist team of Elodie Hiryczuk and Sjoerd van Oevelen, installing billboard-size panoramic photos of Surtsey on the streets of Zuidas. The book's full-color photos illustrate the project's brilliant mash-up of art, geography, history, geology, urban planning and architecture. With wide-ranging texts, including a reprint of Gilles Deleuze's 1953 'L'ile deserte. The website for this project won a Red Dot Award for design.
