Synopsis
A comprehensive look at the remarkable 40-year career of a defining figure associated with conceptual art Lawrence Weiner (b. 1942) is one of the primary figures associated with the emergence of conceptual art in the 1960s. For over four decades, Weiner has defined art as a representation of relationships in the physical world--"the relationship of human beings to objects and objects to objects in relation to human beings." This highly anticipated publication represents the full range of Weiner's practice, from the early 1960s to the present, from his early paintings to his work in language, including works on paper, films, videos, books, and public commissions. Weiner adopted language as his primary material in 1968. According to his landmark STATEMENT OF INTENT, an oft-quoted declaration first published in 1969, each work can be constructed by the artist, fabricated by someone else, or need not be built at all and simply presented in language. Weiner's work is often manifested outside the gallery context--through postcards, billboards, lectures, or even on a series of cast-iron manhole covers for the city of New York.This substantial publication, produced in conjunction with the artist's first major retrospective in the United States and in close collaboration with the artist, constitutes Weiner's largest monograph to date and brings together five esteemed scholars along with Turner Prize finalist Liam Gillick to examine the artist's impact on the art world today., Neither storybook nor autobiography, Something to Put Something On is rather a "questioning book" for children, at once moving and intriguing in its candor: I WAS A CHILD & AS MOST CHILDREN I DID MAKE THINGSI TRIED TO FIND A PLACE TO PUT THE THINGS I HAD MADEAGAIN & AGAIN I FOUND THAT THE SUPPORT OR PLINTH OR TABLEALL RESTED UPON THE EARTH & I REALIZED THAT ALL PEOPLE OFALL AGES WHO HAD MADE SOMETHING HAD TO FIND A PLACE TO PUTWHAT THEY HAD MADETHOSE PEOPLE WHO ASK THE QUESTION & THOSE PEOPLE WHO TRYTO ANSWER THE QUESTION ARE FUNCTIONING AS ARTISTS.I WAS A CHILD & DECIDED TO BE AN ARTIST.Something to Put Something On poses direct questions about art-making to and for young readers. Generously endowed with its maker's legendary wit, it is also, appropriately, the first title in the Little Steidl program.
