Description
Dan Graham's artworks and critical writings have had a significant influence on the course of contemporary art over the past quarter century. "Rock My Religion" collects 18 of Graham's essays from all periods of his work, beginning with his essays on minimalist artists such as Dan Flavin and Donald Judd, continuing with his writings on punk rock and popular culture, and concluding with his considerations of more recent architecture, urban space, and power. Alternating with these theoretical essays are descriptions and documentations of Graham's own works and installations.
