Phaidon Press
, 2005
review of Minimalism (Themes and Movements)
A glorious book combining a multitude of exquisite images of important Minimalist works with an unusual book design that includes overlapping fonts, and font sizes that progressively downsize as the reader moves through the text. (The book designers must have had a ...

Minimalism and After
Hatje Cantz Publishers
, 2006
In their youth, Minimalism's elemental forms, serial accumulations and industrial materials argued consistently against abstract art's subjective gestures. Non-relational, non-hierarchical and anti-compositional were the words of the day. Despite all this, Minimalist work was and remains grounded in individual arguments, whether political, formal, ...
The Minimalist Cooks Dinner
Mark Bittman
Broadway
, 2001
excellent collection
Like the companion volume, "The Minimalist Cooks at Home", this is an excellent collection of recipes. His hints on techniques are very helpful, and his recipes use good ingredients and result in clear, strong, delicious flavors. If you're a vegetarian, this isn't a ...
Minimalist Lighting: Professional Techniques for Location Photography
Kirk Tuck
Amherst Media, Inc.
, 2008
Lighter Lighting
When I began reading the chapter where Tuck describes the expense, the weight, and the complications of transporting heavy studio strobes on an airline, I thought that he had been watching me board last year's flight to Denver. It is a new world in photographic ...
The Minimalist Entertains
Mark Bittman
Broadway
, 2003
Not as good as his usual, still better than most cookbooks
Realistically, I wish I could give it three and a half stars. It's better than your average cookbook, but not as good as a *typical* Mark Bittman cookbook. The strength of MOST of Mark Bittman's cookbooks is that they teach you *how* to cook by giving you tons of ...
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 ...

Understanding Minimalism (Cambridge Textbooks in Linguistics)

Cambridge University Press

Comprehensive
This book is thorough in covering Minimalism. I recommend it to those who have had a complete Introduction to Syntax. The book lacks detailed illustrations that would make it more accessible.

Phaidon Press

Gorgeous survey of a great artist
This is a wonderful book--easily the best book on Robert Mangold available. Beautiful color images of paintings from across Mangold's career (up to 1999), along with images of Mangold's drawings and preparatory studies, make this worth the price alone. But there's ...
