Materiality
(Whitechapel: Documents of Contemporary Art)
by Petra Lange-Berndt, Iwona Blazwick
Paperback, 240 Pages, Published 2015 by The Mit Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-262-52809-2, ISBN: 0-262-52809-6

"Materiality has reappeared as a highly contested topic in recent art.

ISBN-13: 978-0-85488-237-3, ISBN: 0-85488-237-5

"In the postwar dawn of late capitalism, options for political address in painting seemed to polarize themselves into, on one hand, the cool critiques of image truth found in the art of Gerhard Richter or Andy Warhol--and on the other, the decidedly hotter and messier rhetoric of a Sigmar Polke. Polke's energetically sprawling painting traversed many idioms, and its anarchic character expressed the ascent of a new leftism in western Germ ..."
