Author Description

A dynamic collection of writings on the gradual evolution of Carl Andre's art One of the most significant artists of his generation, Carl Andre's Minimalist sculpture has shifted the boundaries of art. One of the major American minimalists of the 1960s, Carl Andre is often compared to contemporaries like Robert Morris and Donald Judd. This dynamic collection of essays and exhibition reviews charts the gradual evolution of consensus on the meaning of Andre's art among the most influential art historians and critics of our time. Contributors include Clement Greenberg, Donald Kuspit, Lucy R. Lippard, Robert C. Morgan, Barbara Rose and Roberta Smith; some of the essays appear here in English for the first time.
