Book
Image, action, and idea in contemporary Jewish art / Ben Schachter.
Offers a new criticism of contemporary Jewish art, showing how Jewish artists bring their use of action and process to Jewish ideas. Bringing together exhibition catalogs, midrashic texts, and artist statements, this book addresses abstraction, conceptual art, performance art, and other styles that do not rely on imagery for meaning.
