Abstract (en)

Focuses on the work of 15 contemporary artists from North America, Western Europe, and Japan, whose expressive voices have developed fully during the decade of the 1980s: Laurie Anderson, Siah Armajani, Francesco Clemente, James Coleman, Tony Cragg, Katharina Fritsch, Robert Gober, Jenny Holzer, Jeff Koons, Sherrie Levine, Yasumasa Morimura, Reinhard Mucha, Julian Schnabel, Cindy Sherman, Jeff Wall. Aims to locate the intellectual concerns that have informed the cultural dramas of the past decade and influenced these artists, whose work comments on those societal changes.
