Anna Banana 45 Years of Fooling Around with A. Banana ISBN: 9781927958292 (HB - E) € bestellen verlanglijst Anna Banana: 45 Years of Fooling Around with A. Banana is a compelling retrospective of the artist's work and her place in art history. Michelle Jacques traces Banana's evolution from Anne Long to conceptual artist Anna Banana, and the breadth of her oeuvre. Craig Saper contemplates the paradox that an artist of her stature could remain virtually unknown while subverting mainstream art and culture so relentlessly and so humorously for so long. Anne Thurmann-Jajes relates the value of the Banana Rag and other publications in publicizing the artist's actions and maintaining contact with other artists. And Edward M. Goméz highlights the importance of Banana's fun, frank and frequently experimental art in engaging new audiences, catalyzing other artists and bridging the historic anti-art practices of Dada and Fluxus and today's contemporary practices. Like the artist herself, this remarkable book will enlighten, engage and surprise.
