Published to accompany an exhibition focusing on fifteen artists pursuing ideas and interests that place them within the new century’s broad social context—one informed by electronic media, global mobility and the blending of traditional cultures with a new internationalism. Artists included are Francis Alys, Vanessa Beecroft, Nikki S. Lee, Glenn Ligon, Paul Pfeiffer, Do-Ho-Suh and others. Includes essays by Paola Morsiani and Peter Wollen; and documentation on the artists’ careers.
