I just started reading Jack Burnham's Beyond Modern Sculpture:The Effects of Science and Technology on the Sculpture of this Century. 1969.
So far I like it, I am on chapter two, "The Biotic Sources of Modern Sculpture."
Is any one else reading this or have already read this? It would be great to start a discussion on this book on Rhizome, I think that lots can be said about artmaking now and some of what Burnham wrote about. (pro or anti it does not matter.)
Any takers?
Still reading, I find Burnham's statements quite relevant to NM work today, and I keep wondering why he stopped writing,, it seems that the late 80's early 90's were his last publications. I did find a site that has made a resource list of his work and others.
