Alex Coles is an art and design critic and editor. ''DesignArt'' (Tate Publishing, 2005), his first book, triggered a debate about limited edition design, principally in the art and design market. As a follow-up, Coles edited the anthology ''Design and Art'' (MIT Press/Whitechapel Publications, 2007), which argued for a deeper understanding of the interface between art and design. Coles' most recent book ''The Transdisciplinary Studio'' Vol. 1 (Sternberg Press, 2012), is a study of studio models of artists (Olafur Eliasson and Jorge Pardo), product designers (Konstantin Grcic), and graphic designers (Abake). To write the book, Coles spent a sustained period of time in each studio conducting ethnographic-styled embedded research. He is currently researching Vol. 2, due for release in 2013. In the autumn of 2012 Coles will launch a new series of edited books through Sternberg Press titled ''EP''. == Publications == Edited anthologies include: ''The Anxiety of Interdisciplinarity'' (Black Dog Publishing, 1998), ''Mark Dion: Archaeology'' (Black Dog Publishing, 1999), ''The Optic of Walter Benjamin'' (Black Dog Publishing, 1998), ''Site-Specificity: The Ethnographic Turn'' (Black Dog Publishing, 2001) and ''Design and Art'' (MIT Press/Whitechapel Publications, 2007). Recent catalogue essays include: "Kiss the Frog! The Art of Transformation" (National Museum, Oslo, 2005), "Anton Henning" (Museum fur Kunst Frankfurt, Germany, 2006), "Project VITRA" (Birkhauser, 2007), "Jorge Pardo" (K21, Düsseldorf, 2009), "Martin Creed: Down Over Up" (The Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh, 2010), "Donald Judd: A Good Chair is a Good Chair" (Ikon Gallery, Birmingham, 2010), "Konstantin Grcic" (Gallery Kreo, Paris, 2011) and Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec (Pompidou-Metz, 2012). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alex Coles」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
