Allen Ruppersberg (born 1944) is among the first generation of
American conceptual artists. "Allen Ruppersberg: and Writing"
presents a wide array of the artist's text-based works from the
late 1960s through to his most recent projects. A companion volume
to "Allen Ruppersberg Drawing," it gathers writings (and visual
works containing writing) from series and projects such as "Al's
Cafe," "From the South Forty to the Bunkhouse," "Great Acts of the
Imagination," "Le Mot Juste," "Free Poetry," "Obits" and "Studies,"
and excerpts from "The Novel that Writes Itself" and "Great
Speckled Bird." In his introduction to the book, poet Bill Berkson
writes: "Ruppersberg's co-exemplars are John Baldessari and Ed
Ruscha Because they are visual artists first, they present language
foremost as image--color, shape, light and scale being conditioned
often enough by lettering, the quality of handwriting or font, or
the format of a book. The upshot is a blithe alchemical switch of
sign into symbol."
