Summary

Nacido en Colonia en 1936 y viviendo en Nueva York desde 1965, los fuertes intereses políticos, culturales y sociales de Haacke se reflejan en sus obras, textos y esculturas. A través de su carrera de cincuenta años, Haacke ha cambiado con frecuencia la presentación de su arte para conseguir traspasar su mensaje. A menudo, pidiendo prestado de fuentes no artísticas tales como publicidad corporativa, cuestionarios o experimentación científica, Haacke es probablemente el artista más acertado y más conocido del siglo veinte en crear un arte político que maneje con elegancia sucinta la creación para dejar impresa su marca. Muchas veces suspendido de las exposiciones de los museos, por su contestataria manera de hacer arte. El presente libro ilustrará al lector sobre el genio y figura de este artista.
