Per-E-Gri-Na-Tions: Conversations With Contemporary Artists

Robert Enright

Synopsis:
Interviews with internationally acclaimed artists on the cusp of a new millennium. In Peregrinations, many of the most influential artists of our time travel through memory and imagination to consider and discuss their lives, their art, and their place in the world. These interviews take a reader into the environments which shape the geist of the creator to reveal both personal and artistic histories. The acclaimed cultural journalist Robert Enright, whose interview style has won him many awards, has brought together some of the most intriguing minds of this century to cover a wide range of topics on art-making and living as an artist. Included in Peregrinations is an eclectic group of visual artists including Motherwell, Ono, Dine, choreographer Martha Clarke, filmmaker Peter Greenaway, and new music composers John Corigliano and Gavin Bryars. There is a conversation between painter David Salle and novelist John Hawkes, and contributions from five artists on the enduring inspiration of Henri Matisse. Peregrinations is a rich and valuable collection which comprehensively documents contemporary art and artistic thought.
