Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st. Pictorial boards, vii, 277 pages, illustrations (some colour); 26 cm. Tight, clean copy. *** "A pioneer of minimalism and conceptual art, Sol LeWitt (1928-2007) is best known for his monumental wall drawings. LeWitt's broad artistic practice, however, also included photography, artist's books, sculpture, and printmaking. From the familiar to the underappreciated aspects of the artist's oeuvre, this book examines the ways that LeWitt's work was multidisciplinary, humorous, philosophical, and even religious. Locating Sol LeWitt contains nine new essays that explore the artist's work across media and address topics such as LeWitt's formative friendships with colleagues at the Museum of Modern Art in the early 1960s; his photographs of Manhattan's Lower East Side; his 1979 collaboration with Lucinda Childs and Philip Glass and its impact on his printmaking; and his commissions linked to Jewish history and the Holocaust. The essays offer insights into the role of parody, experimentation, and uncertainty in the artist's practice, along with contingency in relation to site, space, and movement. Together, these studies shed light on the full scope of LeWitt's creativity and offer a multifaceted reassessment of this singular and influential artist." - Publisher. Size: 4to. Collectible.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A landmark survey of Sol LeWitts printmaking practice The conceptual artist Sol LeWitt (19282007) is best known for his programmatic wall drawings and modular structures, but alongside these works he generated more than 350 print projects, comprising thousands of lithographs, silkscreens, etchings, aquatints, woodcuts, and linocuts. This generously illustrated volume is the first to take a comprehensive look at LeWitts significant yet underexplored printmaking practice. Drawing together new archival research, interviews, and careful material and visual analyses, David S. Areford brilliantly situates LeWitts prints within the broader context of his serial-, system-, and rule-based approach to artmaking. The specific processes of print media, Areford argues, were perfectly suited for LeWitts particular brand of conceptual art, in which the idea becomes the machine that makes the art. With over 400 illustrations, many never before published, this study offers a more complete picture of LeWitts oeuvreand the essential place printmaking holds in it. The result will deepen the understanding not only of the variety of LeWitts output but of the genealogy of his distinct geometric and linear formal language.
