240 p. : ill (some col.); 23 cm.
Summary
A typical monograph of artist Glassford's (b. Texas, lives and works in Mexico) presented in non-linear form -a type of codex- featuring 3 books and allowing multiple juxtapositions and readings that accompanied the exhibition of his monumental intervention in the building of MUCA, an installation created using aluminum, acrylic and fluorescent lights thatallude more to a medical condition than an artistic or psychological reference to an "ExquisiteCorpse". The design of this volume included the collaboration of the artist, editor, contributors, designers and printers and mirrors the metaphorical labyrinth of its title and parodies the potentially narcissist, self-reflexive statement of the mid-career monograph. Includes texts by Beverly Adams, Manuel Hernández, Cuauhtémoc Medina, Francesco Pellizi and Roberto Tejeda.
