Softcover, 172 pages. Light shelfwear to covers; interior clean and unmarked. A well-preserved copy of this important monograph. Published in conjunction with the New Art Trust, this comprehensive volume delves into Anthony McCall's pioneering "solid light" films, which merge cinema, sculpture, and performance. The book features a major essay by Branden W. Joseph, an interview with McCall by Jonathan Walley, and the first photo-documentation of his works, including diagrams and previously unpublished photographs from the artist's archive. Notably, new photography of Long Film for Four Projectors (1974) was commissioned specifically for this publication. This volume is an essential resource for scholars and collectors interested in avant-garde cinema, post-minimalist art, and the intersection of light, space, and perception.
