Near fine. <br/><br/>Portraits of Sol LeWitt wall drawing installers with images of the wall drawings themselves photographed over course of the 6-month installation of the Sol LeWitt Wall Drawing Retrospective at MASS MoCA. By artist and writer Chris Cobb himself one of the installers for the exhibition. From his included description: "These were made as tests for the final portfolios made for the museum & for Sol's widow Carol LeWitt. The portraits haven't been published only shown at Mass MoCA." Portrait subjects are identified on versos by first name and position title; of the several Wall Drawings visible most are shown in progress with a few shots of drawings #343 and #146 in a completed or nearly completed state. <br /> <br />As LeWitt wrote in his 1967 essay Paragraphs on Conceptual art "When an artist uses a conceptual form of art it means that all of the planning and decisions are made beforehand and the execution is a perfunctory affair." Accordingly his Wall Drawings were recreated each time they were exhibited as Cobb detailed in a 2008 BELIEVER article: "Early in LeWitt's career he made the drawings himself but as demand for them grew it became necessary for him to rely on a small group of draftsmen who could faithfully carry out his instructions developing techniques specific to each wall drawing.I am working alongside my apprentice Julia on Wall Drawing #343. By 'working on' I mean that I am attempting to recreate from a brief page of written instructions a work of conceptual art." <br /> <br />A remarkable collection documenting the process of recreating a body of artwork itself impermanent by design. And according to the photographer the first time a Lewitt work has been allowed to be documented in process. unknown books

WN37889China Taiwan Eternal Chemical Co. LTD Original navy blue cloth navy blue dust jacket with white titling on spine and upper panel of jacket. Also accompanied by a very good navy blue cloth covered slip case with only the slightest rubbing on two of the edges. The artist obviously specializes in watercolor landscapes all of which are in color. This may be a catalogue raisonne the last date of which is 1998. The writer is hampered by having no Chinese language at command so place and date of publication are unknown but assumed to be perhaps 1999 or 2000. The plates however are titled and dated and described as well in English as is the dual chronology of his life and works at the rear of the book. Many personal pictures accompany the chronology. Since traditional written characters are used throughout the book there is some assumption that this was printed in Taipei. A beautiful book. First Edition. Cloth. Near Fine/No Jacket.
