Great resource for interdisciplinary artists

Six Years: The Dematerialization of the Art Object from 1966 to 1972

Lucy Lippard

University of California Press, 1997

An important contibution to modernist aesthetics.
I first read this book about twenty years ago. I am glad to see that there is a new edition. It had a major impact on my development as an artist. The author discusses the trend called "conceptual art" which flowered in the time period mentioned in the title (late ...

Eva Hesse

Lucy Lippard

Da Capo Press, 1992

Great document of crucial, endlessly fertile Hesse
Featured are reproductions even of artworks which no longer exist, and Lippard's commentary is always to the point. I don't dwell on the fact that Eva Hesse died young -- in fact, I'm not interested in the cult of personality which in my view only obscures the works ...

Overlay: Contemporary Art and the Art of Prehistory

Lucy R. Lippard

New Press, 1995

Visually gripping and revealing, an inspirartion to artists
Working with many artists, this is one of the most thumbed books in the sculpture workshop library and I am finally buying a copy as that one keeps going missing. The pictures and diagrams are visually exciting and informative - they must be or the artists wouldnt be ...

Susan Meiselas
Caroline Brothers, Edmundo Desnoes, ...

Steidl/ICP, 2008

Since the 1970s, questions of ethics raised by documentary practice have been central to debates in photography. Perhaps no other photographer has so closely and consistently represented and participated in these debates than Susan Meiselas.
