Over the course of his four-decade career, Mike Kelley (1954-2012) created a rich oeuvre that critically questioned aesthetic conventions and examined all forms of culture. The app roximately one hundred ‘Memory Ware’ and associated works were made during the first decade of the 21st century, all of which are reproduced in this catalogue following the exhibition at Hauser & Wirth, New York from November to December 2016. A new scholarly essay by Ralph Rugoff considers the place of personal and collective memory in the artist’s oeuvre as well as reading the ‘Memory Ware’ series in its entirety from both visual and art historical standpoints. Thanks to Hauser & Wirth (Zurich). 250 pages, 25 x 33 cm, hardcover, Hauser & Wirth (Zurich). Show more
