About the book

The Tom Sachs Guide is the most comprehensive, up-to-date look at Tom Sachs’s work, documenting decades of rigorous and visionary artmaking. Vividly illustrated with more than 650 images and organized into thematic chapters, the book includes work across mediums, as well as long-standing collaborations with Nike and immersive reinterpretations of NASA missions. A rich appendix includes essential lists and charts, offering insights into the artist’s creative process and studio practice. An object direct from the hands of the artist, Tom Sachs Guide is a printed tour through his studio, his body of work, and the unique worlds he creates, designed and written in close collaboration with Sachs himself.

The Tom Sachs Guide will be available in The Shop at PAM, where visitors can find a delightful array of artistic offerings to deepen the experience of art and design at the Museum and around us.
