Peter Downsbrough
Since the 1960s, Downsbrough has been working on a varied oeuvre that embraces photography, sculpture, installations, artist books and postcards. His work is linked to Minimal Art and Conceptual Art by its innovative approach to space and language. The new book published by the two museums is a supplement to the artist books that Downsbrough created between 1968 and 2010. It inventorises about 400 postcards that the artist has modified since the 1980s, some of which he sent to friends, fellow artists and curators.

Peter Downsbrough
Like his contemporaries Lawrence Weiner, Robert Barry and Sol LeWitt, American Conceptualist Peter Downsbrough (born 1940) combines a fondness for geometric art and typography with the possibilities of the artist's book. Since the late 1960s he has worked across media (video, film and photography), but the artist's book has proved an enduring format, a place in which to incorporate other projects and compose with text, line drawings, maps and photographs. In 1993 the publisher, book collector and curator Guy Schraenen wrote of his work: "One might call it the absolute zero of the book, since it presents itself in the simplest form." This catalogue provides a comprehensive overview of the 85 artist's books that Downsbrough has published from 1972 to the present, including such classics of Conceptualist book art as And, A Place--New York, Beside, Notes on Location 2 and Two Pipes Fourteen Locations.

Notes on Location
Dissatisfied with the large works in steel he had hitherto produced, in this volume (first published by TVRT in 1972) Peter Downsbrough (born 1940) set out the groundwork for what would become a minimal vocabulary, in his sculptures as in his books: the tension between two parallel lines, often coupled with isolated words, divided internally.
