Mel Bochner (b. 1940) is recognized as one of the leading figures
in the development of Conceptual art in New York in the 1960s and
1970s. He pioneered the introduction of the use of language in the
visual, probing the way they relate to one another to make us more
attentive to the unspoken codes that underpin our visual engagement
with the world. Featuring color plates of more than thirty new,
previously unpublished paintings, and accompanied by an essay by
Jeremy Sigler, this handsome publication offers a new perspective
on Mel Bochner's career-long engagement with language and painting.
Sigler points to how Bochner's newest images poignantly signal a
return to visceral materiality, revealing the unexpected painterly
roots of his body of work. Distributed for Peter Freeman, Inc.
