Emerging from the interdisciplinary community of artists and poets at Black Mountain College, Johnson was extraordinarily adept at using social interaction as an artistic endeavor and founded a mail art network known as the New York Correspondence School. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Drawing on the vast collection of Johnson's work at the Art Institute of Chicago, this volume gives new shape to our understanding of his artistic practice and features hundreds of pieces that include artist's books, collages, drawings, mail art, and performance documentation. In keeping with Johnson's democratic, rhizomatic, and antihierarchical ethos, this indispensable resource on the artist's oeuvre contains 700 illustrations, many of them never before published, and twenty-one short essays by various contributors that allow readers to dip into and out of the book in a nonlinear manner. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for the Art Institute of Chicago \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eArt Institute of Chicago\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e (November 26, 2021-March 21, 2022)\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCaitlin Haskell \u003c\/b\u003eis Gary C. and Frances Comer Curator of International Modern Art, and \u003cb\u003eJordan Carter\u003c\/b\u003e is associate curator of modern and contemporary art, both at the Art Institute of Chicago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 376\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 12 x 9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 27, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47175077986553,"sku":"9780300254334","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/d2VIYURtYWZGVjVBbjVKc0ZQVWM4dz09.webp?v=1767658347","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/ray-johnson-c-o-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
