Edited by Jordan Carter, Svetlana Kitto. Foreword by Jessica Morgan. Text by Alexander Alberro, Erika Balsom, Jordan Carter, Diedrich Diedrichsen, Ann Goldstein, et al. Intervention by Renée Green.
Colorful, subversive, symbolic and challenging, Green's series such as Color and Space Poems are the subject of this scholarly publication featuring an intervention by the artist
The first comprehensive US monograph on American artist Renée Green (born 1959) provides a foundational introduction to the artist's practice and addresses critical gaps in existing scholarship. In her uniquely recursive process, Green juxtaposes a range of materials—archival, documentary and literary fragments, personal and found ephemera, speculative narratives and her own extant work—to probe the unstable boundaries between fact and fiction, public recollection and personal memory. Essays situate Green within key historical influences and periods, including lineages of Conceptual art and institutional critique; examine Green's significant contributions to artistic milieus and discourses of the 1990s; and investigate various formal aspects of the work. In addition to a rich suite of installation shots from her Dia Beacon show, the book also features a visual intervention and response to the book's contents by the artist.
