Bill Vazan : Walking into the Vanishing Point -
Conceptual Art
VOX is proud to invite you to the launching of the first monograph devoted to the Conceptual work of Bill Vazan. The artist’s practice is generally associated with land art and photographic montages. Yet in the late 1960s, the artist began developing a singular conceptual language, creating a number of emblematic works. This volume is an attempt to pay tribute to an inventive, rigorous, and profound body of work that has not garnered special attention until now. It includes an interview with Patrick Loubier and essays by Marie-Josée Jean and Johanne Sloan, as well as a bibliography compiled by Claudine Roger. This volume is pursuant to an exhibition presented at VOX, centre de l’image contemporaine in 2007 in collaboration with art history students from Université du Québec à Montréal. We would like to thank the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec for its ongoing support. In addition, we would also like to thank a private contributor. To find out more
