The book features essays by Lucy Lippard, Glenn Adamson, Fariba Bogzaran, Louise Allison Cort, and René Bustamante that contextualize Blunk among his contemporaries, his materials, and his places. Lippard connects Blunk's interdisciplinary practice with her own attempts at an archaeological, rather than linear, approach to art history and criticism. Cort and Bogzaran reconstruct the early relationships and experiences that influenced Blunk in Japan and in Northern California, respectively. An archival interview with Blunk from 1978 and a new interview with his longtime friend and studio assistant Rick Yoshimoto offer primary insight into Blunk's work and process, 40 years apart.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“Wood. Clay. Stone. Spirit. These are the elements from which JB Blunk created his work, and a more elemental artist of the postwar era would be hard to find. Blunk proceeded through sheer instinct and in deep conversation with nature; his art was the ultimate expression of a life lived off the grid.” - \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGlenn Adamson\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eISBN: 9781907908866\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eUS \/ eng \/ 21×26 cm \/ 224 pages \/ 1.1 kg \/ hard-cover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"not random magazines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47254746726577,"sku":null,"price":130.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/5742\/9169\/files\/JBBlunk4_03ab6e0e-577d-4a00-abe3-b7c65d2771ae.jpg?v=1777790580","url":"https:\/\/notrandommagazines.com\/products\/jb-blunk-fourth-edition","provider":"not random magazines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
