Joe Fig visited the studios of 24 artists — Tara Donovan, Byron Kim, Laurie Simmons and Roxy Paine among them — photographed them, asked about everything from childhood memories to each one’s working creed, then made a new piece of his own whose subject is that studio. Gareth Branwyn, a self-described gigantic snoop, rates it above the other studio-tour books for the questions and the moody photographs. Princeton Architectural Press, 256 pages.
