Covers the brief but groundbreaking career of the self-proclaimed
'anarchitect' Gordon Matta-Clark (1943-1978), one of the most
influential American artists of the 1970s. The immense ambition and
scale of Gordon Matta-Clark's projects, and their fearless
reimagining of the urban landscape, challenged city-dwellers to
reconsider the very notion of built structure and the fragility of
seemingly unassailable edifices. Matta-Clark's first interventions
took place in abandoned, derelict structures, upon which he
performed his famous 'building cuts' and 'intersects'. First
published in 2008 (for a show at SMS Contemporanea in Siena), and
organised thematically and chronologically, this substantial volume
looks at these and other bodies of work, such as the Food
restaurant, the performances, the 'estates' and the artist's
pursuit of alternative economical housing. The catalogue also
includes a filmography and critical essays, plus an interview done
by Judith Russi Kirshner in 1978. Text in English and Italian.
