A major figure in contemporary art, John Baldessari is widely
considered one of the most influential artists to emerge since the
mid-1960s. From his early text-and-image paintings to his more
recent photo collages and installations, Baldessari has continued
to make art that addresses the social impact of mass culture, often
playfully through strategies of appropriation and deconstruction.
Baldessari's lifelong interest in language, written and visual, and
the interaction between the two, raises questions about the nature
of communication and perception. More than 400 illustrations are
presented in full colour in this monograph published in conjunction
with a major exhibition organised by the Los Angeles County Museum
of Art and Tate Modern in London. Eleven essays by critics,
curators, art historians, and an artist and former student of
Baldessari's round out this volume. Few contemporary artists have
achieved the range and relevance of Baldessari's oeuvre, which is
finally given its due in this elegant retrospective book.
