Everything Seemed Possible : Art in the 1970s

description

Compendium of texts by Richard Cook written in the 1970s. "During the 1970s, Richard Cork wrote extensively about radical developments as they happened. This book, indispensable to anyone with an interest in this exceptionally stimulating period, brings together a selection of his finest and most adventurous writings from the decade. Many of the possibilities explored during this restless and fertile time have been developed since then, and young artists today owe a great debt to the spirit of audacious inquiry running through the decade. Cork's book, the work of an eloquent eye-witness, catches its resourcefulness, daring and verve." -- from back wrapper Includes chapters on Bruce McLean, Gilbert & George, Klaus Rinke, William Wegman and David Lamelas, Dan Graham, Douglas Huebler, Mel Bochner, Richard Long, Daniel Buren, Michael Asher, Art-Language, Judy Clark, Hans Haacke, Mary Kelly, Susan Hiller, Sol LeWitt, Bernd and Hilla Becher, Mario Merz, Carl Andre, Marcel Broodthaers, Robert Ryman, Dan Flavin, Don Judd, Eva Hesse, David Hockney, Claes Oldenburg, Ed Kienholz, and many other artists as well as chapters of thematic essays.
