Walter De Maria
Published by Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt, 1991, 62 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 18.5 × 24 cm, English / German
Price: €15

In his sculptures, land works, and installations, Walter De Maria (1935–2013) explored the relationship between the relative and the absolute, using basic geometric components to produce sublime repetitions. By arranging forms according to mathematical sequences, he worked at the intersections of Minimalism, conceptual art, and land art—drawing attention to the limits of gallery spaces, prioritising bodily awareness, and locating the content of an artwork in the viewer.
