Produktbeschreibung
TO LOVE AN ARTIST is a book of tracing and traveling through different practices of marking time and space--from the archaeological to the choreographical, architectural, and meteorological. Through an inheritance passing down several long sequences that unravel and re-combine ecological evidences, biblical/military/technocratic narratives, bureaucratic jargon, and the crypt/crip'd of family mythology emerge curses, (mis)pronunciations, tonics, prospectings, topplings, hopscotch, prosthetics, selves nesting within selves, lathes turning upon other lathes, in a newfound extramundane of the fractal and fissure(d). This book is about a rock... that's also a tumor... that's also a cloud formation... that's also industrial residue... that's also mugwort resin... that's also a rock.
