REVIEWS
“[…] Andrea Wilmsen's artist book has become
a plea for a future-oriented cosmopolitanism
in which hostility to science, censorship and
indoctrination have no place.
Alice in the Field is one of the most beautiful,
interesting and enjoyable photo books
of recent months.”

"The artist Andrea Wilmsen takes us on a magical journey
through the Field Museum. Between scientific descriptions
and mysterious display windows from the museum’s
innermost core, we encounter not only objects, but also
memories of people who usually work behind the scenes.
Carefully selected paper, a leather-like cover, and inner
pages that recall old photo prints - together with faded
children’s pictures, layered text, and a novel-like narrative -
turn the book into a sensory experience."
