Item description from seller

Pictorial boards, 135 pages, illustrations; 26 cm. Catalogue of the touring exhibition. Firm binding, clean inside copy. *** "Bold and necessary in both critical approach and geographical range, Beyond Preconceptions: The Sixties Experiment provides a look at parallel art developments in Eastern and Western Europe and in North and South America in the late 1960s and early 1970s. This richly illustrated catalogue and its five revelatory essays show how a small, forward-thinking group of artists translated similar concepts into a variety of approaches based on their specific cultural context. These artists include Joseph Beuys, Marcel Broodthaers, Lygia Clark, Hanne Darboven, Victor Grippo, Eva Hesse, Ilya Kabakov, Jiri Kolar, Bruce Nauman and Helio Oticica. The new models of artistic practice developed by these artists continue to shape what a younger generation of artists is creating today, particularly where institutional critique and concepts of authorship are concerned." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Beyond preconceptions: the sixties experiment, by Milena Kalinovska; The sixties and the East, by Jiri Sevcik and Jana Sevcikova; Zero and difference: excavating a conceptual architecture, by Paulo Herkenhoff; The material turn in the art of western Europe and North America in the 1960s, by Michael Newman; Looking back, looking ahead: the resonance of the 1960s and 1970s in contemporary art, by Lawrence R.
