William Wegman: Writing by Artist

Sale price$30.00 Member Price
While he’s famous the world over for his instantly recognizable images of Weimaraner dogs, William Wegman has long been one of Conceptual art’s true innovators. Filled with previously unknown and wildly entertaining texts, drawings and early photos, Writing by Artist is the first collection to focus on Wegman's longstanding and deeply funny relationship to language.

This career-spanning edition presents a thematically organized selection of rediscovered writings dating back to the 1970s and 1980s, alongside landmark early photographs and hilarious drawings from throughout his career. All of the works brilliantly incorporate words in one form or another, altering logic and pushing the boundaries of what artist writing can be. Writing by Artist serves as a genuine epiphany for those only familiar with his later work, and a welcome reminder of his madcap inventiveness for the already enlightened. What you do or don’t know about William Wegman now conveniently fits into this strangely beguiling book.
