Tuesday 6 July 2010
6.30 p.m.: Unconcealed. The International Network of Conceptual Artists 1967-1977 Dealers, Exhibitions and Public Collections (english)

Lecture by Lynda Morris from Norwich University College of the Arts.
Introduction by Lucien Kayser, president of AICA Luxembourg.

On the occasion of the second edition of Unconcealed. The International Network of Conceptual Artists 1967-1977 Dealers, Exhibitions and Public Collections by art historian Sophie Richard (Ridinghouse, London).


The Conceptual art movement is a crucial and enigmatic reference point for understanding the art of the last half-century. This study of Conceptual art in Europe during its heyday is based on a Ph.D. thesis by Sophie Richard, who died shortly after its acceptance. It provides a fitting memorial; she was clearly a tenacious researcher, meticulous scholar, and skilful interviewer. It also does credit to editor Lynda Morris, who acted as Richard's supervisor and prepared this book for publication after her death.

The book contains four different sections: Richard's text, with an introduction by Morris; 40 black and white photos taken by artist Jacques Charlier at the private views of Conceptual art exhibitions during 1974-1975; 100 pages of databases and appendices; and over 90 pages containing transcripts of interviews with many of the key participants in the Conceptual art community.
(...) From, Nick Baker, Oxford Art Journal, 32.3 2009 p. 464.


Lynda Morris analyses the importance of Unconcealed in the professional art world, its role as a reference book and working tool for curators, art critics and art professionals worldwide.
