"Against the background of an increasingly globalised world, Land Art and the waves it has set in motion are gaining new esteem. Climate change and major natural catastrophes allow is to follow vigilantly the signals from which artists conceive and use nature as creative material. Beginning with the Land Art primarily intitiated by American artisits in the 1960s, the exhibition and the catalogue mark its exciting development in America, Europe and Asia and cover the entire spectrum right up to the most modern approaches in computer animation. Using sketches, drawings, documents, models, photographs, and video recordings, the 120 exhibits by internationally known artists such as Christo, Agnes Denes, Hamish Fulton, Richard Long and Robert Smithson give a broad view of Land Art for the first time ever."--P [4] of cover.

The practice of deconstructivism, a term describing artwork that examines the imagery of the popular media, was significantly shaped by dozens of important female artists during a critical era in late twentieth-century visual culture. These artists subverted their source material, often by appropriating it, to expose the ways that commercial images express imbalances of power. The mechanisms of power in mainstream art institutions were also subject to these artists' critique. This exhibition catalogue features a diverse group of North American women whose transformative and often provocative work deals with gender, sexual, racial, ethnic, and class-based inequities. Among the artists included in the book are Dara Birnbaum, Sarah Charlesworth, The Guerrilla Girls, Susan Hiller, Jenny Holzer, Mary Kelly, Silvia Kolbowski, Barbara Kruger, Louise Lawler, Martha Rosler, Cindy Sherman, Laurie Simmons, Lorna Simpson, Carrie Mae Weems, and others. Essays by leading critics discuss such topics as the importance of critical theory and sexual politics in the art world of the 1980s; how domesticity is represented in commercial media and the art that addresses it; the importance of psychoanalytic theory as a critical framework; and the sexualization of inanimate objects.
