Book Synopsis


Trade Review
“[A] singular and substantive contribution to the study of the dematerialization of art in a moment when both the capitalist world and its enemies were at a point of inflection, much as we are now.”—Marina Vishmidt, caa.reviews

“Artist as Economist, in its exemplary equilibrium of specificity and breadth, is one of a number of recent publications that suggest the persistent virtue of thinking between and across contexts, not least when analysing the relationship between capitalism and culture.”—Niko Vicario, Art History

“The Artist as Economist makes a vital contribution to the study of 1960s art, offering fascinating insights into the complex intersection of art and money, in all its material as well as abstract forms.”—Jo Applin, author of Lee Lozano: Not Working
