Mel Bochner Photographs, 1966-1969 - Scott Rothkopf

KORTE INHOUD

"Mel Bochner (b. 1940) is considered a pioneer of the Post-Minimal and Conceptual art movements. Perhaps best known for his paintings, installations, and drawings, Bochner became deeply involved with photography in the mid to late 1960s, although most of these works have only recently been exhibited. This book provides the first critical look at a virtually unknown body of Bochner's extremely varied photographs dating from 1966-1969.

Some seventy-five of his photographs are presented, many in color and most published for the first time. Also included are a number of Bochner's drawings that directly informed his photographic works.".

"Scott Rothkopf explores the crucial role of photography in Bochner's artistic development as well as key issues in the relation of photography to Minimal and Conceptual art. In Bochner's photography, Rothkopf argues, a clear arc can be traced from his grappling with Minimalism toward a more rigorous and nuanced articulation of Conceptual art.
