商品簡介
Each title in the Phaidon's Contemporary Artists Series focuses on a particular living artist, and this volume is devoted to New York-based artist Hans Haacke (b.1936). He's had solo exhibitions in such museums as the Tate Gallery, London (1984), the New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York (1986), and the Musee Nationale D'art Moderne, Paris (1989), among others. Illustrations of his work are interspersed with an interview by Molly Nesbit (Vassar College), a survey by German art critic Walter Grasskamp (Academy of Fine Arts, Munich), an essay concentrating on a single piece of work written by Jon Bird (Middlsex U., London), an influential literary piece chosen by the artist (his choice is Bertolt Brecht), and a chronology charting exhibitions, projects, and their reception.
