Description
Book SynopsisAlice Aycock emerged onto New York art scene in 1970s and is known for her large-scale public sculptures that often combine an industrial appearance with references to weightlessness and to science and cosmology. This book explores her drawings, which include elements of mirage, and science, and evoke both abstract thinking and bodily sensation.
Trade Review“Fineberg (Art Since 1940: Strategies of Being) fills out the body of references that inform Aycock’s drawings and emphasizes the capaciousness of her curiosities. Fineberg’s tone is clear and elucidating, while also capturing his subject’s deep sense of play.”—
