A revelatory consideration of the wide-ranging practice of one of
the most influential American artists of the 20th century A pioneer
of minimalism and conceptual art, Sol LeWitt (1928-2007) is best
known for his monumental wall drawings. LeWitt's broad artistic
practice, however, also included sculpture, printmaking,
photography, artist's books, drawings, gouaches, and folded and
ripped paper works. From the familiar to the underappreciated
aspects of LeWitt's oeuvre, this book examines the ways that his
art was multidisciplinary, humorous, philosophical, and even
religious. Locating Sol LeWitt contains nine new essays that
explore the artist's work across media and address topics such as
LeWitt's formative friendships with colleagues at the Museum of
Modern Art in the early 1960s; his photographs of Manhattan's Lower
East Side; his 1979 collaboration with Lucinda Childs and Philip
Glass and its impact on his printmaking; and his commissions linked
to Jewish history and the Holocaust. The essays offer insights into
the role of parody, experimentation, and uncertainty in the
artist's practice, and investigate issues of site, space, and
movement. Together, these studies reveal the full scope of LeWitt's
creativity and offer a multifaceted reassessment of this singular
and influential artist.
