D.A.P./Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, 2008 In her expressionistic drawings and paintings of the last three decades, acclaimed South African artist Marlene Dumas has focused on the human figure, probing themes of love, desire, despair and confusion in order to slyly critique social and political attitudes toward women, children, people of color and others who have historically been victimized. From her evocative portraits, based on photographs of friends and family as well as figures ...             Afterimage: Drawing Through Process Cornelia H. Butler The MIT Press, 1999 The term "process art" describes a moment of radical, aformal experimentation in postwar American sculpture. Through the medium of drawing, Afterimage revisits process art in terms of the artists who defined the movement and suggests a transitional moment when many of its practitioners anticipated the feminist and postminimalist art of the 1970s.

Princeton University Press, 2002 Good Book I bought this book as a gift for my girlfriend's birthday and I was shocked by the size of the book. There are tons of images in the book, most seem to span his career from pencil drawings of his wife to the more familiar works like the one on the cover (which take up most of the works in the book, thank goodness.) The images are laid out with great focus, my only complaint is that some of the ...             Cotton Puffs, Q-tips(r), Smoke and Mirrors: The Drawings of Ed Ruscha Margit Rowell, Cornelia H. Butler Whitney Museum, 2004 In a 1976 drawing by Ed Ruscha, the word "Promise"—--spelled out in ribbon-like script—--is suspended at an oblique angle against a delicate gray background and bathed in a gauzy white light. Somehow, this image perfectly sums up the hopeful feeling that success is right around the corner. Ruscha's ability to give concrete form to the inner life of words and images from popular culture has made him a rare breed of artist---a critic's ...             Democracy at Work--A Comparative Sociology of Environmental Regulation in the United Kingdom, France, ...

WACK! documents and illustrates the impact of the feminist revolution on art made between 1965 and 1980, featuring pioneering and influential works by artists who came of age during that period--Chantal Akerman, Lynda Benglis, Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Valie Export, ...             The Social Scene, The Ralph R.

The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, 2004 Probably best overview in print of this major artist I stumbled onto Rodney Graham's retrospective show at MOCA in LA four years ago, and it changed my life a little bit.

This book covers Graham's earliest exhibited works and plows through steadily to about 2004. Attention given to the formative ...             Eric Wesley Cornelia Butler, Eric Wesley The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, 2006 West Coast artist Eric Wesley was born in 1973 in Los Angeles. His work, which can take the form of sculpture, painting, drawing, architectural model or public artwork proposal, often uses decrepit materials and conveys a humorous take on the world and his own identity within it. For the 2004 Whitney Biennial, he created scale sets for a faux reality show; his 2000 kinetic sculpture "Kicking Ass" was a mechanized donkey that kicked holes in the ...             Flight Patterns Lee Weng Choy, Francis Pound, ...
