Book Synopsis
Mel Bochner (b. 1940) is recognized as one of the leading figures in the development of Conceptual art in New York in the 1960s and 1970s. He pioneered the introduction of the use of language in the visual, probing the way they relate to one another to make us more attentive to the unspoken codes that underpin our visual engagement with the world. Featuring color plates of more than thirty new, previously unpublished paintings, and accompanied by an essay by Jeremy Sigler, this handsome publication offers a new perspective on Mel Bochnerâs career-long engagement with language and painting. Sigler points to how Bochnerâs newest images poignantly signal a return to visceral materiality, revealing the unexpected painterly roots of his body of work. Distributed for Peter Freeman, Inc.
