Objectives: The New Sculpture by Paul Schimmel


9"x12", 192 pages, 88 Color Images
Stock #1757
$5 (member price: $5)

Provocative, sociologically attuned, at times outrageous, the work of the eight sculptors profiled in this catalogue goes beyond such easy labels as "conceptual," "New Object" or "Neo-Geo." Annette Lemieux evokes history with a helmet or a vintage typewriter; her assemblages seem ghostlike fragments of a forgotten order. Katharina Fritsch makes manifest the dreamlike and otherworldly in the Madonna of Lourdes or her friendly, lifesize green Elephant . Jeff Koons cheerfully subverts Louis XIV statues, homey knickknacks and Dutch genre painting. Julian Opie's aluminum boxes, lit from within by fluorescent tubes, are eerie modern icons.


Artists include: Grenville Davey, Katharina Frtsch, Robert Gober, Jeff Koons, Annette Lemieux, Juan Munoz, Junian Opie, and Haim Steinbach.


Published in 1990 by The Newport Habor Art Museum which became the Orange County Museum of Art in 1996.

Original price $24.95
