Description
The use of written language has been one of the most defining developments in visual art of the twentieth century. Art and Text investigates the use of text in contemporary artistic practice, showcasing the most innovative and groundbreaking examples of how word and image have come to occupy the same artistic terrain in contemporary art. With accessible essays on the relationship between word and image, Art and Text showcases some of the most interesting work from a cross-section of well- and lesser-known artists from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Featured artists include Cy Twombly, Stefan Sagmeister, Robert Indiana, Roy Lichtenstein, Barbara Kruger, Kurt Schwitters, Tracey Emin, Bob and Roberta Smith, Bruce Nauman, Raymond Pettibon, BANK, Man Ray and Picasso, amongst many others. Art and Text is a comprehensive, lavishly illustrated and timely review of the influence of language on art.
