Summary
This fully illustrated catalog accompanies a major retrospective exhibition on one of conceptual art?s most inventive and acclaimed practitioners. Emerging in late-1960s Los Angeles, Ruppersberg was among that city?s first generation of conceptual artists to espouse a working method that privileges ideas and process over conventional aesthetic objects. Deploying posters, books, postcards and even a café and hotel, his projects have consistently had at their center a focus on the American vernacular - its music, popular imagery and ephemera - mining the nuances of culture through its unsung conventions. This is the most comprehensive publication to date on Ruppersberg?s work, featuring a wealth of scholarly content and critical writing connecting Ruppersberg?s work to the larger contemporary art field. Produced by the Walker?s award-winning design studio and in close collaboration with the artist, the book presents a holistic view of Ruppersberg?s wide-ranging, 50-year practice.00Exhibition: Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, USA (17.3. - 29.7. 2018).
