Early rising - Mel Bochner - Brief Article

ArtForum,  Jan, 2002  by Barry Schwabsky

The burgeoning rediscovery of Mel Bochner's early work--for the moment overshadowing all he's done over the past three decades--continues apace with guest curator Scott Rothkopf's survey of the artist's 1966-69 photographs and related drawings at Harvard University's Arthur M. Sackler Museum, Cambridge, MA.

While Bochner's photographic project was essential to his shift from Minimalism to Conceptual art, it also prefigures his paintings of the '80s and early '90s in its engagement with perspective as a "prefabricated visual system," a nearly reflexive methodology (Mar. 16-June 26).
