Now What? Artists Write!: A New Collection of Artists' Writings
“There is a tendency to clutter things up, to try to make sure people know something about art, when all that's necessary is to present it and to leave it alone,” wrote Bruce Nauman, expressing the idea that's central to this inspiring, free‑wheeling book. Twenty‑two international artists create an engaging compendium of upfront ideas about their concerns, fascinations, dreams and ambitions. Featured artists' writings include Liam Gillick from Germany, Willem de Rooiji from the Netherlands, and Thorvaldur Thorsteinsson from Iceland, among many more. Leave it to the artists to bring a long‑needed breath of fresh air to their field!
This book has been published in 2004 as part six of the project “Now What. Dreaming a better world in six parts” organized by BAK, basis voor actuele kunst in Utrecht, 1 November — 14 December 2003.
