This book examines the use of image and text juxtapositions in
conceptual art as a strategy for challenging several ideological
and institutional demands placed on art. While conceptual art is
generally identified by its use of language, this book makes clear
exactly how language was used. In particular, it asks: How has the
presence of language in a visual art context changed the ways art
is talked about, theorised and produced? Image and Text in
Conceptual Art demonstrates how artworks communicate in context and
evaluates their critical potential. It discusses international case
studies and draws resources from art history and theory,
philosophy, discourse analysis, literary criticism and social
semiotics. Engaging the critical and social dimensions of art, it
proposes three methods of analysis that consider the work's
performative gesture, its logico-semantic relations and the
rhetorical operations in the discursive creation of meaning. This
book offers a comprehensive method of analysis that can be applied
beyond conceptual art.
