Bits & pieces put together to present a semblance of a whole
Walker Art Center collections
by Walker Art Center., Joan Rothfuss, Elizabeth Carpenter, Richard Flood, Douglas Fogle, Olukemi Ilesanmi, Philippe Vergne, and Siri Engberg
"One of the country's premier institutions of contemporary art, the Walker Art Center has a collection of more than 11,000 objects dating from the early 20th century to the present. Its holdings represent the vast diversity of art-making around the world as well as the Walker's relationships with many of our culture's most creative minds, including Matthew Barney, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, William Klein, Yoko Ono, and Kara Walker. This book, which draws on extensive new research and unpublished archival materials, is a guide to the multidisciplinary collections as well as a primer on contemporary art. It includes lavishly illustrated essays on 350 artists working in visual arts, performing arts, film, video, new media, architecture, and design; a sixty-five-page scrapbook of the institution's history; and a full-color, foldout chronicle of the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden."--Jacket.
