Bøger af Luis Jacob

Form Follows Fiction: Art and Artists in Toronto considers the ways in which artists visualise Toronto, throughout a period of fifty years. Presenting a thematic clustering of works by 86 artists, the book is premised on the tendency of artists in the city to favour performative and allegorical procedures to articulate their sense of place.

Featuring works from three of contemporary artist Luis Jacob's recent exhibitions in Canada, this book focuses on the art museum as the frame, influencing the way the audience views and interprets the art. It questions what lies behind the picture and proposes another dimension to art that is the viewer's encounter with it.
