Materializing Six Years: Lucy R Lippard and the Emergence of Conceptual Art
Sunday January 13, 2013 from 11:00am - 6:00pm
Brooklyn Museum
200 Eastern Pky
Brooklyn, New York 11238 Get Directions
This exhibition is devoted to examining the defining impact Lucy R. Lippard's groundbreaking book 'Six Years' had on the emergent Conceptual art movement. Published in 1973, 'Six Years' simultaneously catalogued and described the development of conceptual art practices in the late sixties and early seventies, and is now widely considered an essential reference work for the period. The exhibition will feature more than 170 objects by nearly ninety artists who were working internationally across a range of mediums. In addition to presenting important artworks, the exhibition will convey the political foment of an era that saw both the emergence of Conceptual art and the rise of the Women's Rights, Civil Rights, and anti-Vietnam War movements, and will illustrate the period's experimental impulses through catalogues, artist publications, periodicals, photographs, and ephemera from key exhibitions and events.
