[0-933699-16-6] 1990. (Square trade paperback) Very good plus. 80pp. Black and white and color photographs, bibliography. "Alan, since I am primarily an art historian, the first thing I do is try to situate you in terms of decades, movements, other artists, and to learn how you feel about such things. One question I would like to start with has to do with something I read recently. It referred to the present 'mood' as archeologism. The writer thought that the whole spirit of regression, of moving backwards, of exploring layer after layer of our historical past, whether recorded or pre-historical, was part of the mood of the past ten years or so. Does that ring any bells for you?" - from the text. Book about Alan Sonfist. Time Period 1969-1989. Interview by Robert Rosenblum.

Con due illustrazioni in bianco e nero e attività espositiva . Cm 20 x 19. pp. 6. . Ottimo (Fine). . . . In una conferenza del 1969 al Metropolitan Museum of Art di New York, Sonfist ha rilasciato la seguente dichiarazione: "I monumenti pubblici hanno tradizionalmente celebrato eventi della storia umana, atti di eroismo importanti per la comunità umana. Sempre più spesso, man mano che comprendiamo la nostra dipendenza dalla natura, il concetto di comunità si espande fino a includere elementi non umani. I monumenti civici, quindi, dovrebbero onorare e celebrare la vita e gli atti dell'intera comunità, l'ecosistema umano, compresi i fenomeni naturali. Soprattutto all'interno della città, i monumenti pubblici dovrebbero recuperare e rivitalizzare la storia dell'ambiente naturale in quel luogo. Come nei monumenti di guerra, che registrano la vita e la morte dei soldati, anche la vita e la morte di fenomeni naturali come fiumi, sorgenti e affioramenti naturali deve essere ricordata".

13 x 20cm 74pp very good paperback exhibition catalogue. Exhibition curators: Robert Slifkin, Associate Professor of Fine Arts, Institute of Fine Arts, New York University, and Stephanie Snyder, John and Anne Hauberg Curator and Director, Douglas F. Cooley Memorial Art Gallery, Reed College, with Assistant Curator Allison Tepper, Curatorial Project Assistant, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Alan Sonfist is among the first generation of 1960s artists who began to explore the natural environment as both the site of, and the material for, creative practice. Sonfist is perhaps best known for his project Time Landscape, a handcrafted New York City park located at the corner of Houston Street and La Guardia Place in Greenwich Village. In Time Landscape, Sonfist researched, cultivated, and planted a park of indigenous foliage that grew on Manhattan island prior to European settlement. The park was developed in 1965, planted in 1978, and continues in perpetuity. Time Landscape s evolving, open-ended interaction with New York s bustling urbanism epitomizes the artist s attention to the evolving and contingent dynamics motivating our understanding of the natural world. Unlike many of the most well known artists associated with the Land Art movement Robert Smithson, Michael Heizer, and Walter De Maria Sonfist s work is distinguished by its sustained and multifaceted investigation of humanity s interaction with nature.…

loose_leaf. Condition: Very Good. Catalogo della 942a mostra della Galleria del Cavallino, Venezia 27 settembre - 2 novembre 1984. Un testo di Jonathan Carpenter. Una illustrazione in bianco e nero. Breve biografia . Cm 20x19. pp. 4. . Molto buono (Very Good). . . Cardazzo [Barbero, 2008] BARBERO Luca Massimo, Carlo Cardazzo. Una nuova visione dell'arte. Electa 2008. Alan Sonfist è un artista americano, noto soprattutto come "pioniere" e "precursore" del movimento della Land Art. Si è fatto notare per la prima volta per il suo "Time Landscape" all'angolo tra West Houston Street e LaGuardia Place, nel Greenwich Village di New York. Proposta nel 1965, la scultura ambientale "Time Landscape" ha richiesto oltre dieci anni di attenta pianificazione da parte della città di New York. È stata spesso citata come la prima foresta urbana di questo tipo. Nella straordinaria gamma delle sue opere, Alan Sonfist ricrea l'inventiva e l'intricatezza del suo soggetto, il mondo naturale stesso. A partire dall'adolescenza negli anni Sessanta, Sonfist ha esplorato le questioni del deterioramento ecologico, della conservazione e di quello che in seguito sarebbe stato inteso come "cambiamento climatico" attraverso progetti che attingono ai materiali e ai metodi del naturalista, dello storico e dell'urbanista. Il crescente rifiuto del consumismo e la crescente consapevolezza ecologica a partire dai primi anni Sessanta forniscono il contesto storico per molti dei temi del lavoro di Sonfist e lo collegano a movimenti artistici come l'arte concettuale, la Land o Environmental art e le opere site-specific. Ma il particolare interesse di Sonfist per gli ecosistemi urbani è una delle caratteristiche che lo distingue da altri artisti che utilizzano elementi e processi naturali come mezzo artistico. Book.…
