| | | Alighiero Boetti: Game PlanEdited by Christian Rattemeyer, Lynne Cooke, Mark Godfrey. Text by Claire Gilman, Jason Smith.
 Published to accompany the first large-scale retrospective of Alighiero Boetti's work outside Italy in over a decade, this volume presents the most comprehensive overview of the artist's career to date. Covering all periods of Boetti's broad oeuvre--including early sculptural experiments associated with the Arte Povera movement, conceptual and ephemeral projects of the 1970s and the monumental embroideries and tapestries he fabricated up to his death--this richly illustrated catalogue is structured as a typology of the artist's body of work rather than a chronological progression. Essays by curators from the Reina Sofia, Madrid, the Tate Modern, London and The Museum of Modern Art, New York, address recurrent themes in Boetti's work such as travel and geography, time, order and disorder and singularity and multitude, while contributions by scholars examine his early influences and his relationship to the cultural, political, and social spheres of Italy and Afghanistan in the 1970s and 1980s. This volume celebrates the material diversity, conceptual complexity and visual beauty of Boetti's work, proving that he is one of the most important and influential artists of his generation.

| | FROM THE BOOK"Alighiero Boetti's protean and multi-faceted career has most commonly been described through the major themes and groups of works for which he has been best known. Even though he ventured into many different areas and was at any given moment thinking about several different themes, making different bodies of work and garnering inspiration from different places, his work seemed to cohere around a few basic almost philosophically profound concepts, such as time and its passing, singularity and duality, plenitude and difference, order and disorder, the familiar and the unfamiliar. And yet, while these concepts traverse his oeuvre like a thread, his work seems peculiarly resistant to more conventional readings of intrinsic development and logic..."-Christian Rattemeyer, excerpted from his catalog essay "From Alighiero to Boetti," reproduced in Game Plan. | | OF RELATED INTEREST |  | CHARTAISBN: 9788881584765
