Taking on political theater, wealth disparity and commodity culture: Louise Lawler

"(Andy Warhol and Other Artists) Tulip," 1982, is reproduced from Louise Lawler: Receptions, published to accompany the career retrospective opening today at The Museum of Modern Art. A key member of the Pictures Generation, Lawler has been a fearless practitioner of institutional critique for the past four decades, an artist whose work is about other artist's work—and the contexts in which said artwork can be found. Texts are by an all-star cast including Roxana Marcoci, Rhea Anastas, Mieke Bal, Douglas Crimp, Rosalyn Deutsche, Diedrich Diederichsen, David Platzker and Julian Stallabrass.
