The Collected Writings of Michael Snow (Michael Snow Project)

ISBN: 0889202435

Author: Michael Snow

Condition: New

The writing of artist Michael Snow, ranging from essays and interviews and record album cover notes to filmscripts and speeches, offer insights into both the professional and the private Snow. Together, they expand the context of Snows work and show the evolution of a great Canadian artist, beginning with his early attempts at defining art, to his emergence and recognition on the international art scene.<.b>Writing, for Michael Snow, is as much a form of art-making as the broad range of visual art activities for which he is renowned, including the Walking Woman series and the film Wavelength. Conversely, many of the texts included in this anthology are as significant visually as they are at the level of content - they are meant to be looked at as well as read. Situated somewhere between a repository of contemporary thought by one of our leading Canadian artists and a history book as it brings to light some important moments in the cultural life of Canada since the 1950s, these texts tell their own story, marking the passage of time, ideas and attitudes.
