Description

Richard Flood's Notes from the Playground is a collection of thirty essays that reveal his rigorous connection to the world of ideas and contemporary art. Drawing from his broad knowledge of history, cinema, literature, poetry, design, and architecture, these writings combine the autobiographical with the theoretical. The anthology includes personal correspondence between Flood and artists, such as an annotated conversation with Paul Thek and four interviews with Robert Gober, offering vivid accounts of his sculptural process. Other essays provide detailed insights into the work of contemporary artists, including a significant essay on Arte Povera co-curated with Frances Morris at the Walker Art Center. This collection brings together anecdotal and art historical perspectives to offer new insights into the work and contexts of the featured artists.
