Gordon Matta-Clark (1943-78) died at only 35 of pancreatic cancer andhas since become a cult figure of late 20th-century art. Trained inarchitecture at Cornell, he went on to question the field'sconventions in vivid projects--performance and recycling pieces, space and texture works and word games--some of which excised holes intoexisting buildings or assembled deeds to New York City alleys andcurbs. The artist used a variety of media to document his work,including film, video and photography. His work and words, whilesophisticated enough to make him an "artist's artist," and colossaland outgoing enough to draw public attention and affection, werealways also grounded in social or political convictions. In the early1970s, Matta-Clark developed the idea of "anarchitecture," whichencompassed his interest in voids, gaps and left-over spaces. "GordonMatta-Clark: Experience Becomes the Object" collects five essays andten individual interviews with various friends and family members ofMatta-Clark's. Together, they outline a biographical profile and offer an analysis of the historical period in which the artist developedhis short but successful career. New, never-before-published materialand photographs as well as an exclusive link to the documentary"Crosswords: Matta-Clark's Friends" by Matias Cardone are alsoincluded.
