"Engadin" delves into the artist's deep relationship with the Engadin region in the Swiss Alps, which he first visited in the late eighties. In an insightful essay by Dieter Schwarz works  are discussed to explore the Alpine landscapes' impact on the artist. With eighty color illustrations, the book features paintings, overpainted photographs, and archival images, with some materials available to see published for the first time.

Comprising of Anj Smith¿s most recent body of work, catalogue features a conversation between the artist and psychologist Orna Guralnik and a poetic intervention by author Claire-Louise Bennett. Beautifully designed book with detail responding to her work such as the lizard-like cover (animal world, shedding skin, transformation...) or the golden reflective paper (play with light and reflection, luminosity of paintings...) while the fold-outs in the book allow for reader to experience scale of work (the bigger works are 3 meters across).
