Summary:
Published in conjunction with the first major US museum show of Joan Jonas's art in nearly 15 years, this volume studies three thematic approaches of the artist's work: the critical notions of gender, being and otherness; the politics of landscape and ecology; and new conceptions of medium specificity and un-specificity. The monograph presents new writing and scholarship, excerpts from Douglas Crimp's final interview, as well as a selection of drawings and sketches from Jonas's notebooks, including never-before-published drawings created during the coronavirus lockdown.
