SILLMAN, Amy; BIRKENSTOCK, Eva (ed.); BÜHLER, Kathleen (ed.); ZIMMER, Nina (ed.)
Oh, Clock!

In her painting, Amy Sillman is expanding the standards of abstraction using material and conceptual interventions in the painting process. In her mediaspanning approach to painting she destabilizes purported dichotomies and hierarchizations between figuration and abstraction, intimacy and clumsiness, ability and self-negation, as well as process and completion. This publication highlights her critical exploration of the history of painting and conveys her complex and sophisticated painterly practice on canvas and beyond; it provides broad insights into Sillman's approach to painting as a time-based medium, presenting in detail around thirty paintings and three hundred works on paper, several digital animations, and site-specific installations, all of which were created in the last fifteen years. [publisher's note]
