| Description: |
'Kinetic art is the first new category of art since prehistory', ex-pat New Zealand artist Len Lye boldly claimed in an essay in 1964. What did he mean by this? And how does his own work in sculpture and film bear it out? |
| Synopsis: |
First published in 2009, this lively art book will be re-released in 2015 alongside a new edition of the biography - as the art and life of Len Lye continue to fascinate readers in New Zealand and around the world. 'Kinetic art is the first new category of art since prehistory', ex-pat New Zealand artist Len Lye boldly claimed in an essay in 1964. In Art that Moves: The Work of Len Lye, Roger Horrocks - author of a best-selling biography of Lye - explores what Lye meant by this, and how his own work in sculpture and film bore it out. The well-illustrated book also includes a DVD containing a short documentary by Shirley and Roger Horrocks alongside brilliant footage from Lye's films and of his sculptures in motion. In this book Len Lye's art moves again - alert and alive. |
