Une réflexion révélatrice sur la vaste pratique de l'un des artistes américains les plus influents du XXe siècle Pionnier du minimalisme et de l'art conceptuel, Sol LeWitt (1928–2007) est surtout connu pour ses dessins muraux monumentaux. Cependant, la vaste pratique artistique de LeWitt comprenait également la photographie, les livres d’artiste, la sculpture et la gravure. Des aspects familiers aux aspects sous-estimés de l’œuvre de l’artiste, ce livre examine en quoi l’œuvre de LeWitt était multidisciplinaire, humoristique, philosophique et même religieuse. Locating Sol LeWitt contient neuf nouveaux essais qui explorent le travail de l’artiste à travers les médias et abordent des sujets tels que les amitiés formatrices de LeWitt avec des collègues du Museum of Modern Art au début des années 1960; ses photographies du Lower East Side de Manhattan; sa collaboration en 1979 avec Lucinda Childs et Philip Glass et son impact sur sa gravure; et ses commissions liées à l'histoire juive et à l'Holocauste. Les essais offrent un aperçu du rôle de la parodie, de l’expérimentation et de l’incertitude dans la pratique de l’artiste, ainsi que de la contingence par rapport au site, à l’espace et au mouvement. Ensemble, ces études mettent en lumière l’ampleur de la créativité de LeWitt et offrent une réévaluation multiforme de cet artiste singulier et influent. David S. Areford est professeur agrégé et directeur du département d'art à l'Université du Massachusetts à Boston. Il est l'auteur de Strict Beauty: Sol LeWitt Prints.
