Experimenting with the form and register of contemporary art writing, With A Bao A Qu Reading When Attitudes Become Form reconfigures the seminal artist\u2019s book \/ catalog When Attitudes Become Form (1969). Originally edited by Harald Szeemann to accompany the Kunsthalle Bern exhibition of the same name, When Attitudes Become Form brought together new tendencies in the art of its time, including arte povera, conceptual art, and post-Minimalism, to conceive curatorial practice as a linguistic medium.<\/p>\n

Working with Szeemann\u2019s artist\u2019s book\/catalog as case study, With A Bao A Qu reflects on the form and structure of the artist\u2019s book. By stylistically adopting a subjective literary voice, drawn, at least partially, from Jorge Luis Borges\u2019s Book of Imaginary Beings (published in English in 1969), the book counterintuitively shifts focus away from the reading of art\u2019s conceptual properties to that of its physical, material embodiment.<\/p>\n

An entertaining and thought provoking addition to the reexamination of one of art history\u2019s most mythologized exhibitions that demonstrates how language is attitude and how words are form. \u23af Jens Hoffmann<\/p>\n
