The Hand That Points at Me: 25 Years of HEROTOGEN

By Steven Weber and Jacob Whitmore

The Hand That Points at Me: Twenty-Five Years of Herotogen offers an immersive look into a multidisciplinary practice that blurs the boundaries between fine art and theatrical design. This beautifully curated volume brings together a remarkable collection of paintings, drawings, sculptures, and set designs, capturing the breadth and versatility of Jacob Whitmore's creative vision.

From bold canvases alive with color and texture to delicate sketches that reveal the first sparks of an idea, each work reflects an artist deeply engaged in exploring form and meaning. Sculptural pieces transform everyday materials into evocative objects, while stage designs exemplify a keen understanding of space, atmosphere, and narrative. Whether crafting a single figure or an entire environment, Jacob Whitmore wields every medium with the same sense of curiosity and intention.

Richly illustrated with over 200 images, the book traces the artist's journey across decades of innovation.

More than a monograph, The Hand That Points at Me celebrates the artist's commitment to transforming ideas into experiences-whether on canvas, in three-dimensional space, or across the theatrical stage. Each page affirms the belief that art can transcend traditional categories, inviting audiences to engage with beauty, story, and emotion in new ways.

Perfect for collectors, designers, students, and anyone inspired by boundary-pushing creativity, this book is both an essential reference and a stunning testament to the power of multidisciplinary art.
