The book is the most complete monograph of artist Orozco (b. Jalapa, Veracruz, Mexico,1962) published to date, covering his career with a selection of his most representative works from the late 1980's to the present. Contents include essays by art historians Yve-Alain Bois and Benjamin H.D. Buchloh and a long interview by Briony Fer, where the artist shares his motivations and thoughts regarding conceptual art, culture and the philosophy behind his work. Benjamin H.D. Buchloh refers to the different forms of sculpture during the 20th century and the culture of market economy and their manifestations since the transformations to object-subject. Finally Yve-Alain Bois explores the recent return to painting of Orozco critically analyzing the formal and structural logic of his canvas. With a nomadic lifestyle and a permanent changing and varied artistic practice that includes sculpture, drawing, photography, installation, collage, painting and video, noted Orozco is an artist that defies any categorization.
