Back in print, Overlay is Lucy Lippardâs classic book on contemporary art and its connection to prehistoric sites and symbols. Viewed by critics, artists, art historians, and students as the essential text on how prehistoric images have been âoverlayedâ onto contemporary art by todayâs artists, Overlay is for anyone interested in the possibility of reintegrating art into the fabric of society as a whole, as in prehistoric times.
From megalithic monuments such as Stonehenge to Richard Longâs minimalism, from the earliest examples of cave drawings to Ana Mendietaâs Cuban site art, from the matriarchal fertility rituals of the ancient Celts to Judy Chicagoâs Dinner Party, Lippard shows a continuum in the forms, materials, symbols, and imagery that artists have employed for thousands of years.
Lavishly illustrated with over 320 black-and-white photographs and 8 pages of color images, Overlay includes the work of artists Carl Andre, Louise Bourgeois, Robert Smithson, Robert Morris, Charles Simonds, Mary Beth Edelson, Anna Sofaer, Michelle Stuart, Sol LeWitt, Ad Reinhardt, Alice Aycock, Nancy Holt, Emily Carr, Dennis Oppenheim, and many others.
This edition also contains Physics: A World View
About: Discusses the relationship between prehistoric art and the imagery and symbolism of modern sculpture, painting, earth works, and other art
