Title: JOHN BALDESSARI Catalogue Raisonne : Volume Two : 1975-1986
Author: Pardo, Patrick ; Robert Dean (eds)
Price: Not Available
ISBN: 9780300198102
Description: New Haven: Yale University Press, 2013. 30cm., hardcover, 496pp., ca. 500 illus., most in color. Summary: Compiling four-hundred-plus unique works of art, this volume traces the shifts and developments in conceptual artist John Baldessari’s work from 1975-86. It covers his photobased works such as the ‘Strobe’, ‘Word Chain’ and ‘Pathetic Fallacy’ series from 1975; the ‘Violent Space’ and the seminal ‘Concerning Diachronic/Synchronic Time: Above, On, Under (With Mermaid)’, from 1976; and the ‘Blasted Allegories’ series from 1977–78, which drew heavily from the artist’s vast collection of photo stills taken from commercial television. An introductory critical essay will provide a close reading of selected works and a historical context for understanding Baldessari’s art from this period. A detailed chronology and exhibition history and bibliography are also included. This is the second in a projected four-volume series of the complete catalogue of works by John Baldessari.
