Abstract

Art into Ideas: Essays on Conceptual Art provides an overview of one of the most important and influential developments in American and European art over the past thirty years. Robert Morgan defines and elucidates the premises of Conceptual Art, focusing on works by a range of international artists, including Joseph Kosuth, Hans Haacke, Sherrie Levine, and Joseph Beuys. He examines its evolution, from its inception in the 1960s through the 1980s, relating the movement to historical and cultural contexts, as well as to important theoretical and critical issues that emerged during these decades. Defining three primary modes of representation that characterize Conceptual Art - the philosophical, the structuralist, and the systemic - Morgan then applies these concepts in analyses of a variety of media, including painting, photography, books, and performance

Abstract

What is conceptual art? Is it really a kind of art in its own right? Is it clever - or too clever?Of all the different art forms it is perhaps conceptual art which at once fascinates and infuriates the most. In this much-needed book Peter Goldie and Elisabeth Schellekens demystify conceptual art using the sharp tools of philosophy. They explain how conceptual art is driven by ideas rather than the manipulation of paint and physical materials; how it challenges the very basis of what we can know about art, as well as our received ideas of beauty; and why conceptual art requires us to

Abstract

This book features the works of Belgian Conceptual artist Werner Cuvelier (° 1939). Since the sixties onwards, Cuvelier has been working on a constant and consistent oeuvre that seems to start from the concepts of arrangement, cataloguing and inventories of facts. The book focusses on Cuvelier's impressive and colorful oeuvre , and thanks to many archival pieces and studio views, provides an insightful view into his living and working world.

Abstract

Well-known art historians from Europe and the Americas discuss the influence of conceptualism on different notions of critique - identity politics, biopolitics, and globalization. The legacies of conceptualism include the several different notions of critique it engendered. This collection of essays by art historians from Europe and the Americas considers the reception of conceptual art as seen in the sometimes contentious, sometimes contradictory, and sometimes affirmative modes of critique it inspired. The essays pursue three lines of investigation into the reception of conceptual art over the past three decades: forms of identity politics, including not only class, gender, race, and sexuality but also North/South and East/West dynamics; discourses that contextualize conceptual art practices in terms of Michel Foucault's and Giorgio Agamben's ideas of biopolitics; and issues of "global conceptualism," including artistic inclusion and exclusion and conceptualism's relation to globalization. Topics discussed include Central Eastern European postconceptualism; the notion of labor in the art practices of Bernadette Corporation, Mathias Poledna, and others; the mutual influence of the "Pictures" generation of postconceptualists in the United States and "Second Order" painters in Germany; feminism in the work of Judy Chicago, Mary Kelly, Martha Rosler, and others in the 1970s and 1980s; and queer politics within postconceptual practices, including the "kitsch factor" and anti-intellectualism sometimes found in works by such artists as Nayland Blake and Ray Johnson.

Abstract

In Six Years Lucy R. Lippard documents the chaotic network of ideas that has been labeled conceptual art. The book is arranged as an annotated chronology, into which is woven a rich collection of original documents including texts by and taped discussions among and with the artists involved and by Lippard, who has also provided a new preface for this edition. The result is a book with the character of a lively contemporary forum that provides an invaluable record of the thinking of the artists - an historical survey and essential reference book for the period. -- back cover.

Abstract

"There they rest, inert, impertinent, in gallery space-those book forms either imitated or mutilated, replicas of reading matter or its vestiges. Strange, after its long and robust career, for the book to take early retirement in a museum, not as rare manuscript but as functionless sculpture. Readymade or constructed, such book shapes are canceled as text when deposited as gallery objects, shut off from their normal reading when not, in some yet more drastic way, dismembered or reassembled." So begins Bookwork, which follows our passion for books to its logical extreme in

Abstract

"Gutai is the first book in English to examine Japan's best-known modern art movement, a circle of postwar artists whose avant-grade paintings, performances, and in stallations foreshadowed many key developments in American and European experimental art"--Publisher's website. "Working with previously unpublished photographs and archival resources, Ming Tiampo considers Gutai's pioneering transnational practice, spurred on by midcentury developments in mass media and travel that made the movement's field of reception and influence global in scope. Using these lines of transmission to claim a place for Gutai among modernist art practices while tracing the impact of Japan on art in Europe and America, Tiampo demonstrates the fundamental transnationality of modernism. Ultimately, Tiampo offers a new conceptual model for writing a global history of art, making Gutai an important and original contribution to modern art history"--Jacket.
