Jan Dibbets: The Photographic Work - Paperback
by Erik Verhagen (Author)
Dutchman Jan Dibbets (b. 1941) is one of the principal artists to have introduced photography into the plastic arts. Beginning in 1967, he embarked on a long-range project that, as we advance into the twenty-first century, he seems not to have abandoned: the "pictorializing" of photography. At a time when photography has massively invaded contemporary art institutions--not without generating confusion and excess--it is possible to lose track of how radical Dibbets's approach was. This radicalism has nothing to do with modernist overkill. Dibbets did not merely go further than others; he went elsewhere. This books covers almost fifty years of his photographic oeuvre.
Erik Verhagen is Assistant Professor in Contemporary Art at the University of Valenciennes, in France.
