Description
Summary:Raul Walch is a sculptor and conceptual artist. Yet, in his site-specific interventions, he turns into a critical investigator, performer, and activist as well. Aside from being a survey of his artistic practice, "It's a great pressure to be here" is a wry comment on the globalized present, the human condition, and contemporary societal issues. A topical glossary, encompassing inspirations, ideas, people, and places, scholarly essays, and an interview convey how artistic engagement can become instrumental in the examination and possible transformation of the given socio-political realities. --Publisher's website.
