This monograph is an invaluable record of Jonas’ work. Along with that on Schneemann, above, they offer two crucial pioneering artists’ solutions to a very current question: the ephemerality of performance art and the possibility of extending the life of the form without distorting the artist’s ideas.
Wick’s work invokes feelings about the earth we inhabit, about our fragility and vulnerability, about our fears and our passions, and about what we are doing to the earth and to each other.
