Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The Daled collection in Brussels, renowned yet largely unknown, is presented to the public for the first time in this comprehensive publication. It documents approximately 500 pieces collected between 1966 and 1978, complete with purchase prices in an inventory. The illustrated section features over 200 color plates showcasing key works by artists such as Vito Acconci, Carl Andre, Robert Filliou, On Kawara, Richard Long, Bruce Nauman, and Ian Wilson. Insight into the collecting activities of Herman and Nicole Daled is provided through numerous statements from them. An in-depth essay by Birgit Pelzer explores the collection's genesis and historical context, detailing individual artists' contributions and significance within the collection, along with intriguing cross-references. Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, a Harvard art historian, positions the Daled collection within the broader landscape of 1960s and 70s art. Additionally, a substantial chapter offers insights into the accompanying archive, which includes unique, unpublished documents meticulously organized by the Daleds, such as letters, notes, sketches, exhibition invitations, and photographs. A detailed chronology of the collection's history rounds out this essential work.
