Michael Clark Book Launch, New York

Sunday 30 October, 6:30- 7:30pm,
Artists Space, New York
 
This event launches the first monograph on Michael Clark, celebrating the whole of his career to date, from the late 70s to the present. Rich in visual and archival material, it contains new essays on Clark's work, photography by Hugo Glendinning, Richard Haughton, Nick Knight, and others, plus interviews with many of Clark's collaborators from the worlds of dance, art, fashion and music.
 
"The aesthetics, style, creativity and temper of extreme subcultural lifestyle would…become a vital aspect of Clark's work as a dancer and choreographer. Absurdist, confrontational, richly aesthetic and provocative – a Through-the-Looking-Glass sensibility, in which vulgarity, covert intellectualism, deliberate obscurantism and an uncompromising rigor were commingled…"
- Michael Bracewell, An Evening of Fun in the Metropolis of Your Dreams, 2011
