Peter Hutchinson: Dreamed Paradises (German and English Edition)

This retrospective catalog of works by Peter Hutchinson constitutes one of the most important of the past few decades. The British-born, U.S.-based Hutchinson--a pioneer of Ecological Art, also called Earth Art or Land Art--visualizes our world as an artistic utopia. His photo-collages, object boxes, sculptures and films, as well as documentary and poetic texts, articulate fundamental questions about man's relationship to the world we inhabit. Hutchinson's use of natural materials and development of outdoor, site-specific artworks mean that many of his pieces are located on the interface between art and nature. This volume, documenting more than 20 years of lyrical work, does justice to Hutchinson's stunning vision of ''dreamed paradises.'' Includes an interview with the artist and several fine essays.
