Description
This volume offers the autobiography of artist Adrian Piper, established as a conceptual and minimalist artist as well as a performer on the New York art scene of the late 1960s. Text in English and Italian.
Adrian Piper (1948, New York), established as a conceptual and minimalist artist as well as a performer on the New York art scene of the late 1960s, Piper raises often uncomfortable questions about politics, racial and gender identity, and asks people to confront truths about themselves and the society in which they live. The concept of permanent struggle against racism, xenophobia, social injustice and hatred is the core of her philosophical, artistic and activist practice. As a woman artist and philosopher, Piper’s work also often questions her experiences of sexism and misogyny. In this sense, her research has inspired entire generations of contemporary artists. She won the Golden Lion award as best artist at the 2015 Venice Biennale.
