Lee Bul: Monsters presents the powerful and strange visual world of South Korean artist Lee Bul, whose work moves between sculpture, installation, performance, and science-fiction-inspired forms. Published by Les Presses du réel and co-published with Janvier, the book focuses on Lee Bul’s “monster” works, where the body becomes fragmented, transformed, artificial, and futuristic.

Inside, the hardcover volume includes 192 pages and approximately 150 color illustrations, offering readers a close look at Lee Bul’s hybrid creatures, suspended forms, and sculptural figures. These works question traditional ideas of beauty, femininity, perfection, identity, and technology, creating a world that is both seductive and unsettling. With essays by Jean-Louis Poitevin and Elisabeth Wetterwald, Lee Bul: Monsters is an important exhibition catalogue for collectors and readers interested in contemporary Asian art, body politics, and experimental sculpture.
