{"product_id":"marcel-broodthaers","title":"Marcel Broodthaers","description":"Marcel Broodthaers filled his twelve-year artistic career with more ideas and works than most artists manage in a lifetime. This career began in 1964, following a period of more than two decades labouring in some obscurity as a poet in the Belgian Surrealist circle of Rene Magritte and Paul Nouge. He also wrote articles on art during these years, including early critiques of Pop art. Traversing media freely - from installation and sculpture to artist's books, prints, film and writings - Broodthaers embodied the `post- media artist' for whom any form could be recruited in the service of a larger conception. Those conceptions included institutional critique (of which he is a pioneer), art-historical critique, pastiche and philosophical-linguistic puzzles. Edited by Broodthaers' daughter Marie-Puck, and with a range of both classic and never-before-seen works, a biography, exhibition chronology and a selected bibliography, this volume is the largest and most authoritative Broodthaers monograph ever published.","brand":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39666575802453,"sku":"9780500093801N","price":58.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/products\/e6639ec0-a92d-4518-b08d-ac6adaef188e.jpg?v=1644300101","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/marcel-broodthaers","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
