Description
Isa Genzken: A Body of Work This collection of essays explores the remarkable body of work of German artist Isa Genzken, from her elegant floor pieces to her explosive assemblages. Since the late 1970s, Genzken has developed a unique approach that combines formal and material inventiveness, incorporating a wide range of materials into her sculptural practice. The book considers the full span of Genzken's work, addressing key themes such as modernist and avant-garde practices, sociopolitics, and economic issues. The texts, written by leading art historians and critics, examine Genzken's formation in West Germany, her critique of conventions, and her exploration of mass culture and public spheres. Featuring contributions from prominent writers including Yve-Alain Bois, Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, and the artist herself, this book offers a highly original interpretation of modernist and contemporary art practices.
