Conceived by MoMA's celebrated curator Kynaston McShine as an 'international report' on contemporary trends, the show and attendant catalog together assembled the work of more than 150 artists from 15 countries to explore the parameters and possibilities of the emerging art practices of the era. Noting the participating artists' attunement to the 'mobility and change that pervades their time,' McShine underscored their interest in 'ways of rapidly exchanging ideas, rather than embalming the idea in an "object."' Indeed, much of the work in the exhibition engaged mass-communications systems, such as broadcast television and the postal service, and addressed viewers directly, often encouraging their participation in return. The catalog, rather than merely document the show, functioned autonomously: it included a list of recommended reading, a chance-based index by critic Lucy Lippard, and individual artist contributions in the form of photographic documentation, textual description, drawings and diagrams--some relating to work in the exhibition and others to artworks as yet unrealized. This facsimile edition of the original 'Information' catalog, which has long been out of print, invites reengagement with MoMA's landmark exhibition while illuminating the early history of conceptual art.--Artbook& website (viewed on October 17, 2019) 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 650 0 $a Artists' books $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Conceptual art $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Environment (Art) $v Exhibitions. 650 7 $a Artists' books. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00817660 650 7 $a Conceptual art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00872980 650 7 $a Environment (Art) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00912849 655 7 $a Facsimiles. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411642 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01424028 655 7 $a Facsimiles. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a McShine, Kynaston, $e editor. 710 2 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.), $e host institution. 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20230714010106.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B9A9A052220B11EEBF0EE34F22ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
