Synopsis
Gail Gelburd and Geri De Paoli conclude that Asian philosophy, particularly Taoism and Zen, has had a profound affect on contemporary American art. They reveal a thread that brings together artists as diverse as Robert Rauschenberg and Robert Irwin, as John Baldesari and Carl Andre.
Documented with numerous interviews, archival data, and an extensive bibliography, this book will interest those who appreciate twentieth-century art, visual theory, and Eastern-Western comparative studies.
