"A marvelous slim book [that] weaves . . . ideas, facts, images, and histories into a whole about . . . the ecology of the manmade world." --Rebecca Solnit
In Undermining, the award-winning author, art historian and social critic Lucy R. Lippard delivers "another trademark work" that combines text and full-color images to explore "the intersection of art, the environment, geography and politics" (Kirkus Reviews). Working from her own experience of life in a New Mexico village, and inspired by the gravel pits in the surrounding landscape, Lippard addresses a number of fascinating themes--including fracking, mining, land art, adobe buildings, ruins, Indian land rights, the Old West, tourism, photography, and water. In her meditations, she illuminates the relationship between culture, industry, and the land. From threatened Native American sacred sites to the history of uranium mining, she offers a skeptical examination of the "subterranean economy." Featuring more than two hundred gorgeous color images, Undermining offers a provocative new perspective on the relationship between art and place in a rapidly shifting society. "[Lippard's] strength lies in the depth of [her] commitment--her dual loyalty to tradition and modernity and her effort to restore the broken connection between the two." --Suzi Gablik, The New York Times Book ReviewLes informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
