Ian Burn. Collected Writings 1966-1993
Ian Burn has been described as many things: an activist, a trade-unionist, a journalist, an art critic, a curator and an art historian--and, as he once described himself in a moment of self-deprecating alienation, 'an exConceptual artist'.This volume brings together a diverse collection of Burn's writings that reveals a probing, analytical artist who turned to language to articulate the need for 'looking at seeing and reading', who pursued a Marxist politics in the face of neoliberalism and who sought to occupy and transform the margins of landscape painting.The catalogue brings together previously unpublished material and offers a prescient rethinking of art in a decentered world through what Ian Burn called 'peripheral vision'.Ian Burn was a conceptual artist, curator and writer who spent the first part of his career working in London and New York.Co-published with KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin.Ian Burn was a member of Art & Language.
On Looking at Looking
Ian Burn's origins as an Australian landscape painter were an unlikely springboard into metropolitan culture. His move to New York with his wife Avril led to help curate the first Conceptual Art exhibition in 1970. This book shows the relevancy and power of his work today. Ann Stephen is a curator at Sydney's Powerhouse Museum.
Dialogue
Ian Burn has been one of Australia's most important artists since the mid-1960s. He was involved in the development of the Conceptual Art movement and in the activities of the Art & Language group, working first in London and then New York between 1965 and 1977. His work is found in art museums and collections in the United States, Europe and Australia. Writing has always been central to his practice as an artist. From the early-1970s, much of his writing has evolved as a trenchant commentary on the institutions of art, including art history. His studies in Australian art present interpretations which both compete with orthodox accounts and critically engage the problems of art historical pr...
The Third Hand
Since the 1960s, a number of artists have challenged the image of the lonely artist by embarking on long term collaborations that dramatically altered the terms of artistic identity. In this book, Green offers a sustained critical examination of collaboration in international contemporary art.
Conceptual Art
This landmark anthology collects for the first time the key historical documents that helped give definition and purpose to the conceptual art movement. Compared to other avant-garde movements that emerged in the 1960s, conceptual art has received relatively little serious attention by art historians and critics of the past twenty-five years—in part because of the difficult, intellectual nature of the art. This lack of attention is particularly striking given the tremendous influence of conceptual art on the art of the last fifteen years, on critical discussion surrounding postmodernism, and on the use of theory by artists, curators, critics, and historians. This landmark anthology collect...
Electronic Ceramics

Essays on Art and Language
Critical and theoretical essays by a long-time participant in the Art & Language movement. These essays by art historian and critic Charles Harrison are based on the premise that making art and talking about art are related enterprises. They are written from the point of view of Art & Language, the artistic movement based in England—and briefly in the United States—with which Harrison has been associated for thirty years. Harrison uses the work of Art & Language as a central case study to discuss developments in art from the 1950s through the 1980s. According to Harrison, the strongest motivation for writing about art is that it brings us closer to that which is other than ourselves. In ...
