Summary:
"Ground/work is organized by the Clark Art Institute with guest curators Molly Epstein and Abigail Ross Goodman. Building on a history of collaboration with contemporary artists, the Clark commissioned Kelly Akashi, Nairy Baghramian, Jennie C. Jones, Eva LeWitt, Analia Saban, and Haegue Yang to create new works of art in active dialogue with this specific environment. This book contains eight essays that address the significance of these artworks and artists from curators and writers Courtney J. Martin, Jenelle Porter, Pavel S. Pyś, Lumi Tan, Yesomi Umolu, and Robert Wiesenberger"-- Provided by publisher.
