. .

Résumé :
The first monograph on Donna Dennis, the architectural sculptor, installation artist, and long-time collaborator with the New York School poets. Best known for creating large-scale installation work inspired by American vernacular architecture, Dennis finds beauty in sites shaped by ordinary people, which become repositories for memory and feelings. This book contextualiaes Dennis's work within contemporary art and the wornen's movements and examines sculptural installations and public-art projects that represent points of passage on a symbolic life journey. A conversation between Dennis and painter Rackstraw Downes brings to life the artist's influences.
