| book description |

The artist, at least according to Honore de Balzac, is at work when he seems to be at rest; his labor is not labor but repose. This observation provides a model for modern artists and their relationship to both their place of work-the studio-and what they do there. Examining the complex relationship between process, product, artistic identity, and the artist's studio-in all its various manifestations-the contributors to this volume consider the dichotomy between conceptual and material aspects of art production. The essays here also explore the studio as a form of inspiration, meaning, function, and medium, from the nineteenth century up to the present. With essays by Beatrice von Bismarck; Eric de Bruyn; Petra Chu; Wouter Davidts; Terry van Druten; Mayken Jonkman; Matthias Kruger; Maarten Liefooghe; Matthias Noell; Frank Reijnders; Sarah de Rijcke; and Monika Wagner This title is available in the OAPEN Library - http://www.oapen.org.
