Rock My Religion collects eighteen of Graham's essays from all
periods of his work, beginning with his essays on minimalist

writings on punk rock and popular culture, and concluding with his

Dan Graham's artworks and critical writings have had an enormous
influence on the course of contemporary art over the past quarter
century. Rock My Religion collects eighteen of Graham's essays from
all periods of his work, beginning with his essays on minimalist
artists such as Dan Flavin and Donald Judd, continuing with his
writings on punk rock and popular culture, and concluding with his
more recent considerations of architecture, urban space, and power.
Alternating with these theoretical essays are descriptions and
documentations of Graham's own works and installations-projects
that trace his explorations in conceptual art, video, photography,
architecture, and public sculpture, showing the integral
connections between Graham's criticism and his own artwork.
Although as an artist Graham has been associated with minimalism,
conceptual art, and postmodernism, his writing does not conform to
the stylistic and theoretical constraints of any specific movement.
With sources and topics ranging from Ronald Reagan to the Sex
Pistols, from Michel Foucault to Dean Martin, Graham's eclectic
investigations into the complex cultural relationships between art
production and social reality are always strikingly original. What
makes these writings particularly astonishing, though, is Graham's
willingness to examine specific manifestations of popular culture
(television, magazines, rock and roll, drugs) without regard to
traditional qualitative judgments and without separating "high" or
"low" culture from the processes of everyday life.
