Companion, White Cube gallery’s annual reader, is a compilation of contemporary art and discourse. Visual essays, in-conversations, lectures, poetry, artist writings and newly commissioned texts are just some of the forms of creative expression and scholarship brought together in a single volume.

Highlights include newly commissioned writing by Amalia Ulman on Sarah Morris’s iconic film Los Angeles (2004); Adrian Searle’s close reading of an early work by Gilbert & George; a visual essay dedicated to Doris Salcedo’s public projects in her native city of Bogotá; a 1952 piece of cultural commentary by Isamu Noguchi; a conversation between Ilana Savdie, Ariana Reines, and Jasmine Wahi; an essay by the late Polish sociologist Zygmunt Bauman on the practice of Mirosław Bałka; and new work by Haim Steinbach created exclusively for the book using a random number generator.
