Locating Sol LeWitt

“Locating Sol LeWitt . . . carefully reconsider[s] the artist through nine essays, copious illustrations, and some conspicuously heroic academic labor.”—David O’Neill, Bookforum

“American artist Sol LeWitt’s monumental contribution to modern art . . . is thoroughly examined in Locating Sol LeWitt. The book drops us into the deep end of his broad art practice and goes far beyond his widely recognized wall drawings to include photography, bookmaking, sculpture, and printmaking.”—Allison Schaller, Vanity Fair

“An incisive look at a practice that is both ‘ironically excessive’ and ‘absurdly rudimentary,’ as James H. Miller writes—one that’s comprised of intersecting lines of thought, pointing in every direction.”—Mira Dayal,ARTnews(“Best Art Books of 2021”)

“Shedding new light on Sol LeWitt’s conceptual practice and his artworks, this book addresses some of the most interesting—and previously underexplored—aspects of LeWitt’s art.”—Gwen Allen, San Francisco State University

“This rich volume dispels once and for all the presumption that Sol LeWitt's artistic practice is easily summarized. Readers will be repeatedly struck by the multifaceted, experimental, and often highly personal dimension to his work that emerges from these pages.”—Alistair Rider, University of St Andrews
