| Summary: | "Art Life is a selection of essays by contemporary art curator Lawrence Rinder, written between 1991 and 2005. Rinder's work is distinguished by a concern for art's role in reflecting and shaping daily life. Informed by history, philosophy and popular culture, these essays provide keys to understanding a broad range of contemporary practices - from painting and drawing to net art and video installation. In each of these texts, Rinder muses on how the intersection of material, image and idea creates meaning in some of the most compelling works of art of the past few decades. Among the many artists discussed are Luc Tuymans, Sophie Calle, Martin Creed, Forcefield, Samuel Mockbee, Louise Bourgeois, Mark Lombardi, Jack Smith and Irit Batsry."--BOOK JACKET. |
