JOHN McCRACKEN was a leading voice of Minimalist sculpture. His monochromatic fiberglass and resin sculptures (that are worked to a high and nearly translucent polish) are iconic works of this genre.
Sketchbook, published concurrently with an exhibition at David Zwirner in New York, presents the first of two treasured sketchbooks that JOHN McCRACKEN used from the mid-1960s until the mid-1970s. These pages show his thought processes, insights, and working sketches—all of which pre-date and presage his later work.
The format, paper, and reproduction quality of the book have been designed to faithfully reproduce in facsimile the original pages from this fascinating document. A supplemental booklet, bound separately and inserted into a pocket in the back of the book, shows the sculptures in their realized form.
