Abstract

Series of postcards depicting 100 black, rubber boots in various situations. Photographs taken from Feb. 9, 1971 until May 16, 1973, and mailed between March 15, 1971 and July 9, 1973; not always mailed in the order the photographs were taken. 100 Boots, triumphant, marched into New York's Museum of Modern Art in May 1973, the culmination of a remarkable work that embodied the spirit of generation and changed the meaning of art. Celebrating this extraordinary and innovative postcard series, here is a collection of all 51 installments of artist Eleanor Antin's epic visual narrative. Full of discerning social commentary, 100 Boots powerfully evokes the America of the Vietnam era. The boots begin innocently enough, engaging in everyday suburban activities - going to the market, church, and drive-in movies. Later, disillusioned, they trespass on private property, symbolically announcing their solidarity with the thousands of Americans participating in the antiwar movement. Unable to avoid the draft, 100 Boots too go to war. By the time these legendary heroes arrive in New York, they have become cultural icons, representatives of the new American experience. Like all good art, Antin's ongoing letter to America - whether spilling out of mailboxes or collected in book form - continues to provoke a response.

Abstract

From 1972 to 1991, Eleanor Antin (born 1935) created multiple personae of different genders, races, professions, historical contexts and geographic locations. The artist called this motley group - which includes a deposed king, an exiled film director, ambitious ballerinas and hard-working nurses - her "selves". As the selves' manifestations were as diverse as their stories: some were embodied by Antin and captured in photographs and on video; others had paper doll surrogates; at times their existence was known only trough the drawings, texts and films they had ostensibly left behind. As she explored the fleeting nature of the self, Antin used fiction, fantasy and theatricality to examine the ways that history takes shape, scrutinizing the role that visual representation plays in that process. Multiple Occupancy: Eleanor Antin's "Selves" is the first project to focus exclusively on this critical body of work. Publishers' note.
