hardcover. Condition: as new. first edition. In-4° relié HARDCOVER - 21 x 28,5 cm, 144 color and b/w illustrations - The text works that Christopher Wool began in 1987 illustrate the limitations of language and its symbolic meaning, since the legibility of the words in these unique text paintings is masked by the letters placed over them in such a way that the word, understood as a plastic material in painting, is always contrast as syntax generating a broad range of allusions. In this catalogue the limits of the genre of painting are questioned, or rather, it is within the creative process starting with a selection of pieces characterised essentially by a dissolution and rematerialisation of the composition that he incorporates constant awareness of the creation process of his own work. With this work, Wool reminds us of artists like Bruce Nauman, Vito Acconci or Jean-Michel Basquiat as regards the influence that these artists exerted by using texts as images and a vehicle of expression that arouses in the spectators an awareness of their own expectations.

White stiff wrappers with dust jacket. Photographs by Christopher Wool. Unpaginated (194 pp.), with 92 duotone plates throughout. 10 x 15 inches. New in publisher's shrink-wrap. From the publisher: "Road is an artist's book composed from a series photographs that Christopher Wool shot between 2015 and 2017. Dust roads, gravel roads, partly overgrown or full of tire tracks, through desert and fields of rocks, through sparse woods and along precipices. Only seldom does a fork in the road offer a choice of which way to go, and though the place always changes from one shot to the next, it still feels like one long road traveled under the clear light of the Texas sun."

[Cited in Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, The Photobook: A History, Volume III. (London and New York: Phaidon, 2014)]. New in publisher's packaging. From the publisher: "Between 1994 and 1995, Christopher Wool shot a series of photographs in downtown New York City that he calls East Broadway Breakdown, after a street on the Lower East Side, the neighborhood where he lives and works. Taken at night using a 35mm camera, the pictures feature the neighborhood's signature streets, with their dilapidated storefronts and ramshackle staircases leading up to anonymous spaces. The high contrast images are often hard to read, producing, rather than coherent images, seemingly random forms that emerge from skewed camera angles. Like his paintings, Wool's photographs hover between abstraction and representation, forcing viewers to confront their desire for visual coherence while offering an alternative construct for picture-making today." An excerpt from "Ghost Dog" by Anne Pontégnie ("Christopher Wool, Crosstown Crosstown"): "A succession of images in undifferentiated shades of gray that immerse the viewer in this nocturnal world. Their realism has more to do with this subjectivity dis-solved in its context than with any hypothetical truth of representation. In his paintings and photographs, Wool might associate with stray dogs, neurosis, or debris: stains, drips, and accidents of various origins, pictorial or organic. This voluntary assimilation with degrading phenomena -- another form of humor, this time, black -- is the instrument that allows him to achieve the dissolution found in these photographs and gives him access to a singular vision: one that is street level."
