Sensing the future: Moholy-Nagy, media and the arts

Uittreksel

"It has been almost a decade since this book first appeared, and it has been out of print for a few years now. So it is with great pleasure that I introduce this second, corrected printing of the English edition of Sensing the Future: Moholy-Nagy, Media and the Arts. I wish to thank Lars Müller for agreeing to this enterprise, to Mickey Salgo for his generosity in making it possible, and to the studio of Olafur Eliasson, to Patrick Harrop, and Lancelot Coar for providing fresh texts and images on the Berlin showing of their respective works in 2014-15. Except in a very few cases where I deemed it important to do so, I have not revised the text. Rather, I have proofread it and have corrected any typographical or other errors that had crept in. I regard this book as representing the state of knowledge as it was in 2013-14 and did not wish to add any new interpretations or much new information that has arisen since then. The book continues to stand on its own as a book, even as it also acts as a document of the exhibition that took place in Winnipeg and Berlin."-- Oliver A.I. Botar (page 6 of introduction).
