Open Questions. Thirty Years of Writing About Art

Over the past three decades, Helen Molesworth's singular voice and groundbreaking curatorial vision have established her as one of the most dynamic and influential commentators in the art world. This generous reader - the first-ever collection of her writings - presents twenty-four essays from the past thirty years, gathered from artist monographs, exhibition catalogues, and art publications such as Artforum, Documents, frieze, and October.
Opening with a new essay that lays out Molesworth's belief in art's unique capacity for merging knowledge and feeling, this volume also includes several self-reflective texts and retrospective commentary on her previous essays - a highly innovative approach that will position Open Questions as an indispensable book for viewing, studying, and thinking about art for generations to come.
