Wish You Were Here - 111 Artists, 111 Notes

What happens when the world’s greatest artists trade brushstrokes for Post-it notes? In Wish You Were Here, renowned curator Hans Ulrich Obrist invites 111 of today’s most influential voices in art and culture to share their most personal thoughts, doodles, dreams, and provocations — all handwritten, all unforgettable.

From Amy Sherald to John Waters, KAWS to Tilda Swinton, each note captures a fleeting moment of imagination — a glimpse into the mind of a creator at play. These pages are alive with musings, poems, jokes, and sketches that bridge the gap between art and intimacy, the analog and the digital. Following Obrist’s beloved Remember to Dream! comes this joyful new volume, designed by the visionary Irma Boom, whose inventive typography transforms every handwritten note into a work of art. The result is a book that’s part sketchbook, part diary, part conversation — and wholly inspiring.

Playful, profound, and full of surprises, Wish You Were Here: 111 Artists, 111 Notes is a love letter to creativity itself — and a reminder that sometimes, the smallest notes leave the biggest impressions.

A Celebration of Creativity, Connection, and the Handwritten Word
