"Everything I’ve ever done I’ve thought of “as if”: Every single thing I have offered to the public has been offered as a suggestion of a work…what I mean by “as if,"…is that my work is sketch, a line of thinking, a possibility." Martha Rosler
Since the late 1960s, American artist Martha Rosler has produced seminal works in the fields of photography, performance, video, installation, critical writing, and theory, investigating how socioeconomic realities and political ideologies dominate ordinary life.
This book, which accompanies the first retrospective exhibition of Rosler's work, contains seven colour photo essays by Rosler; an excerpt from the curatorial project "If You Lived Here"; essays by Alexander Alberro, Catherine de Zegher, Sylvia Eiblmayr, Jodi Hauptman, and Annette Michelson; a conversation between Rosler and Benjamin Buchloh; and a biography/bibliography along with a complete list of artworks.
