Essaying essays : alternative forms of exposition

Compiled and edited by American artist, author and critic Richard Kostelanetz, this dense volume of texts and imagery presents a radical insight into the revolutionary aesthetic of the late 1960s and early ‘70s. From conceptual art and modern composers to concrete writing, Constructivism and the Fluxus movement, this pivotal reprint remains just as vivacious and fresh today. Reformatted from the original 1975 newsprint version, the contents feature an array of over 100 notable contributors, among them, John Cage, Sol Lewit, El Lissitzky, Bruce Nauman, Claes Oldenburg, Ad Reinhardt, Richard Serra, Robert Smithson, R. Buckminster Fuller and Marcel Duchamp.
