Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Hardcover. The first major critical assessment in years of this titan of American art by a writer and curator with unique firsthand experience with the artist and his work.Michael Heizer is among the greatest, and often least accessible, American artists. As one of the last living figures who launched the Land Art movement, his legacy of works that are literally and metaphorically monumental has an incalculable influence on the world of sculpture and environmental art. But his seclusion in the remote Nevada desert, as well as his notorious obduracy, have resulted in significant gaps in our critical understanding. Michael Heizer- The Once and Future Monuments spans the breadth of Heizer's career, uniquely combining fieldwork, personal narrative, and biographical research to create the most comprehensive account of his art and life available. Author William L. Fox, founding director of the Center for Art + Environment at the Nevada Museum of Art, has alternately been a sponsor, advocate, critic, and colleague of Heizer for decades. Fox's understanding of the artist's history and connection to landscape, his time spent with Heizer at the remote ranch where Heizer is finishing his magnum opus--the mile-long sculpture City--and his access to some of Heizer's key collaborators make him uniquely positioned to chronicle him. Fox has also made thorough site visits to Heizer's work--including early pieces in the Nevada desert now largely lost to the elements--to correct an often inconsistent record of their locations. Last, Fox imparts a crucial new understanding of Heizer's work by elaborating on the artist's bond with his father, the famed archaeologist and cultural ecologist Robert Heizer, who enlisted his son on important digs in Mexico and Peru, providing the young man with an appreciation of site, landscape, and geology that would thoroughly inform his work. Michael Heizer- The Once and Future Monuments is a long overdue addition to the critical and biographical literature of this major figure in American art. The most comprehensive account available of Michael Heizer's art by a writer and curator who has critical experience with the artist and his work Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability. …
