Description
The Human Argument is the first publication of Agnes Denes's collected writings. Denes, a pioneer of both the environmental art movement and Conceptual art, has explored a wide range of subjects, from ecology and culture to philosophy and linguistics, and transformed her findings into unique works of visual art.
Her work often addresses human values and the consequences of our actions, as seen in her iconic piece Wheatfield - A Confrontation (1982), in which she planted and harvested a two-acre wheat field in downtown Manhattan.
This collection of writings offers a unique insight into Denes's artistic vision and her commitment to challenging our assumptions about the world around us.
