She Played A Formative Role In The Emergence Of Conceptual Art In The 1960s And 1970s And An Even More Crucial Role In The Development Of Identity-Based Art In The 1980s And 1990s. Perhaps Her Most Significant Contribution Has Been To Reaffirm The Utopian Potential Of Avant-Garde Art To Transform Society. Specifically, Her Reliance On Minimalist And Conceptualist Forms Generally Thought By Critics To Be Too Hermetic To Effect Social Change Has Actually Enhanced The Ability Of Her Art To Motivate Viewers To Examine Intransigent Attitudes About Race, Gender, And Difference. A Prominent Philosopher As Well As An Artist, Piper Has Produced Objects, Installations, Performances, Videos, And Soundworks That Have Established A Direct, Active Relationship Between Artist And Spectator, Permitting Neither To Retreat To The Usual Defensive Rationalizations That Distance Art From Subjects As Discomforting As Personal Bigotry And Xenophobia. This Catalogue….Is The Most Comprehensive Book Ever Published On The Artist….And [Essays By] The Artist Herself That Illuminate The Complex Relationships Between Form And Content In Piper’s Oeuvre From A Variety Of Perspectives. , Keywords: Piper, Adrian Piper, Art, Avant-Garde, Black, African-American, Racism, Bigotry, CLT00185, Shipping: Too Big To Fit Into Flat Rate Envelope, Please Email For Priority Or International Mail
