Published by Phaidon, Tom Sachs Guide is the definitive, 528-page roadmap tracing four decades of work from New York sculptor and studio mastermind Tom Sachs. Created in close collaboration with Sachs alongside Yeju Choi and Howie Kahn, this isn’t a passive coffee table book—it’s a functioning tactical manual detailing the studio’s obsession with bricolage, industrial processes, and cultural reframing. From his DIY Space Program and Tea Ceremony installations to his iconic Nike collaborations and studio governance systems, the volume breaks down how plywood, resin, paint, and relentless discipline build utopias.
