No full text" Adrian Piper has consistently produced groundbreaking work that has profoundly shaped the form and content of conceptual art since the 1960s. Strongly inflected by her longstanding involvement with philosophy and yoga, her pioneering investigations into the political, social, psychological, and spiritual potential of Conceptual art have had an incalculable influence on artists working today. Published in conjunction with the most comprehensive exhibition of her work to date, this catalogue presents more than 290 artworks that encompass the full range of Piper’s mediums: works on paper, video, multimedia installation, performance, painting, sound, and photo-texts. Essays by curators and scholars examine her extensive research into altered states of consciousness; the introduction of the Mythic Being—her subversive masculine alter-ego; her media and installation works from after 1980, which reveal and challenge stereotypes of race and gender; and the global conditions that illuminate the significance of her art.

Morris(’s) Prints
No full textIt may seem peculiar on my part to begin my presentation with a drawing that, even as it provides a key to Morris’ oeuvre, also stands as a reminder of a painful moment in the history of the institution I work for, the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Litanies, a sheet covered with writing from 1961, is an important drawing by Robert Morris. It was part of our collection until it mysteriously disappeared during the long tour of the exhibition The Drawings of Robert Morris, organized by Thoma..

Robert Malaval
No full text« Pourquoi montrer un artiste qui s’est suicidé en 1980 dans un lieu consacré aux artistes émergents ? » est l’une des interrogations placées en préambule du catalogue de l’exposition du Palais de Tokyo dédiée au travail de Robert Malaval.
