Description:
"This book explores the home as a distinct site of artistic practice. Using examples from across Europe and the Anglophone world between the mid-20th century and the present, each chapter considers the different circumstances for working at home, the impact on the creative lives of the artists, their identities as artists and on the work itself, and how, sometimes, these were projected and promoted through photographs and the media. The book comprises full-length chapters by artists, architects, art and design historians, each of whom bring different perspectives to the issues, interleaved with short interviews with artists to enrich and broaden the debates. At a time when individual relationships to home environments have been radically altered, The Artist at Home considers why some artists in previous decades either needed to or chose to work from home, producing work of vitality and integrity. It is essential reading for researchers and students working across the visual arts, sociology, cultural geography, and art history, and for those interested in artistic creation"--
