Paperback. Condition: Fine. 1st. 95 pages, colour illustrations; 24 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** "This book charts a project by London Fieldworks (Bruce Gilchrist and Jo Joelson) with the participation of internationally celebrated artist Gustav Metzger to create a sculptural work by linking a computer-brain interface with industrial manufacturing technology. Using bespoke software, London Fieldworks produced 3D shape information from EEG readings of Metzger's brainwaves as he attempted to think about nothing. This data was translated into instructions for a manufacturing robot, which carved out the shapes from the interior of a block of stone to create a void space. An introduction by the artists, a text by Gustav Metzger and four contextualising essays by writers across the fields of literature, art, science and technology explore the diverse historical and conceptual grounding for and broader implications of Null Object's production process." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Artists' introduction, by London Fieldworks; Sculpting the void: between negation and abnegation, between action and absence, by Bronac Ferran; Writing about nothing, by Hari Kanzru; Null and objective: London Fieldworks and Metzger's brain, by Nick Lambert; Null object: prolegomena, by Christopher W Tyler; Empty and emptiness, and emptying, by Gustav Metzger.

Hardback. Condition: New. The artist's biography as told by Metzger himself, a leader of the Auto-Destructive Art and Art Strike movements. A visionary artist and radical thinker, Gustav Metzger asked provocative questions about the role of the artist and of conventional forms of artmaking and display. In this richly illustrated book, Metzger tells the story of his life and work in a series of interviews with the curator Hans Ulrich Obrist. He recounts his Orthodox Jewish childhood in 1930s Nuremberg and his arrival in England as part of the Kindertransport before shedding light on his development as an artist, including his early contributions to computer art, his leading role in the Destruction in Art Symposium of 1966, and his call for an 'art strike' from 1977-80. An artist for our times, Metzger's uncompromising commitment to combating environmental destruction was fundamental to his understanding of art as a vehicle for change. This publication speaks emphatically to the undimmed urgency of Metzger's artistic position, offering an insight into his interests in ecology and nature and, in the later part of his life, the threat of extinction and the motto he adapted from W. H. Auden: 'We must become idealists or die.'.…
