Form of Contingency and Pattern of Imminence by Gabriel Kuri combines photographs of emergency plans and cleaning charts with layered drawings, challenging the boundary between chaos and structure. Featuring Kuri's works and an essay by James Cahill, this book offers a profound exploration of inevitability, contingency, and the human need to organize the unpredictable. For the past ten years, Gabriel Kuri has been photographing two kinds of display: emergency escape plans for buildings—hotels, museums, warehouses, etc.—and cleaning charts found in public washrooms. Both series have evolved in parallel, marking Kuri's movements around the world. Once weaved together, they constitute the backbone of Forms of Contingency and Patterns of Imminence.
