Essays in the book look at Sonniers numerous public art projects, including a kilometer-long installation at the Munich airport, his relationship with his native Louisiana culture, and the architectural influences in his work. One of the art worlds most productive figures, Sonnier continues to redefine the parameters of sculpture.
