John McQueen: The Language Of Containment

John McQueen: The Language Of Containment

$15.00

John McQueen has transformed the ancient art of basketmaking, creating sculptural works that explore the nature of containment on every level: spiritual, philosophical, technical and material. This book accompanies an exhibition held at the National Museum of American Art, 20 March - 5 July 1992.

Featured in this artist's first solo exhibition are 43 baskets made of unconventional natural materials, with written text often woven into their forms, becoming literally containers of language.
