Lucy R. Lippard: Six Years: The Dematerialization of the Art Object from 1966 to 1972 (1973–) [EN, ES]

8 February 2016, dusan

Full title: Six Years: The dematerialization of the art object from 1966 to 1972: a cross-reference book of information on some esthetic boundaries: consisting of a bibliography into which are inserted a fragmented text, art works, documents, interviews, and symposia, arranged chronologically and focused on so-called conceptual or information or idea art with mentions of such vaguely designated areas as minimal, anti-form, systems, earth, or process art, occurring now in the Americas, Europe, England, Australia, and Asia (with occasional political overtones) edited and annotated by Lucy R. Lippard.

“In Six Years Lucy R. Lippard documents the chaotic network of ideas that has been labeled conceptual art. The book is arranged as an annotated chronology into which is woven a rich collection of original documents–including texts by and taped discussions among and with the artists involved and by Lippard, who has also provided a new preface for this edition. The result is a book with the character of a lively contemporary forum that offers an invaluable record of the thinking of the artists–a historical survey and essential reference book for the period.” (from the back cover)

Ada Raev: Russische Künstlerinnen der Moderne (1870-1930). Historische Studien, Kunstkonzepte, Weiblichkeitsentwürfe (2002) [German]

10 August 2015, dusan

“Mit ihren Werken, ihren theoretischen Positionen und ihren Aktivitäten im zeitgenössischen Kunstleben haben russische Künstlerinnen die Geschichte der russischen und europäischen Kunst zwischen 1880 und 1930 wesentlich mitgeprägt.

Das Buch spürt den mentalitätsgeschichtlichen, politischen und institutionellen Voraussetzungen des Phänomens “Russische Künstlerinnen der Moderne” nach und stellt ihr Wirken im zeitgenössischen Kanon der Künste (Kunsthandwerk, Graphik und Buchkunst, Malerei, Plastik, Szenographie) vor.”
