| Description |
Velimir Chlebnikov is a monumental suite of 30 new paintings housed inside a steel pavilion designed by the artist. Made in tribute to the visionary Russian avant-garde philosopher Velimir Chlebnikov (1885-1922), the works are inspired by Chlebnikov's writings in particular, his esoteric theories about the forces that cause human conflict. Featuring reproductions of the paintings, installation shots and texts by Harry Philbrick of The Aldrich Museum, this publication is the definitive record of the Chlebnikov project, which is now housed in a private collection and unavailable to the public.
Published in conjunction with the exhibition held at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, May 27-Oct. 1, 2006.
