Book Synopsis
The first comprehensive overview of Peter Weibel's visionary work, covering over half a century of artistic expression from material to machines to media. Peter Weibel: Art as an Act of Cognition presents the first comprehensive overview of the work of Peter Weibel (19442023), an influential artist who anticipated key developments in the art of the late twentieth and twenty-first centuries and evolved new utopian visions of a free society and individual freedom.
