description

Essay references artists in exhibition and additionally Sol LeWitt, Joel Shapiro, Joan Jonas, John Baldessari, Jonathan Borofsky, and Michael Hurson. Critical documentation about critical exhibition that launched the arts of the 1980s. "A renewed impulse to make pictures of recognizable thing characterizes a wide range of contemporary art, consulting a line of continuity drawn through its much touted pluralism. The extensive use of those media that have the power of replicating the world around us -- photography, film, video -- is but one of its manifestations. In addition, the realm of the imagination has reappeared to displace the analytic and perceptual modes of our recent past..." -- from Crimp's essay.
