Summary

Brazilian artist Lygia Clark (1920-1988) stands as one of the most influential figures in 20th-century art, celebrated as a radical re-definer of the very concept of art. This publication makes her complete works accessible for a wider audience. In the 1960s, Clark developed interactive objects that take on form and meaning through the viewer’s active engagement. She conceived of art as a participatory, sensory, and sometimes healing experience. This comprehensive volume renders her groundbreaking work tangible in its full scope - from her geometric-abstractions and participatory sculptures to her performative and therapeutic pieces. This extensive publication accompanying the major retrospective offers an accessible and thorough overview of Lygia Clark’s trailblazing artistic practice. It presents the evolution of Clark’s work from 1950 through the 1980s, covering her geometric-abstractions, participatory sculptures, and performative, therapeutic pieces. -- Julkaisija.
