Concerned that the increasing demand for his work served only to reinforce the political, social, and economic status quos, Evans hoped to unsettle this dynamic by making a sculpture that would connect with an audience outside of the art world. The morning after the installation of his sculpture, Evans recorded the responses of passersby.The Beckettian transcript of the Cardiff interviews is presented here, framed by Evans’s introduction and reflection. Art historian Jon Wood contextualizes \u003ci\u003eThe Cardiff Tapes\u003c\/i\u003e within contemporaneous debates about sculpture and public space. These writings explore ideas about the social responsibilities of art and artists, and make a cogent argument for the value of “difficulty” in sculpture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished by Soberscove Press, 2015 \u003cbr\u003e90 pages, 20 color images, 5.5 × 8 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eISBN 978-1-940190-08-2\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Curated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67768532664687,"sku":"yjp1792047126582","price":7.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0911\/1483\/2239\/files\/the-cardiff-tapes-1972_1.jpg?v=1792047156","url":"https:\/\/pickdailyclad.shop\/products\/the-cardiff-tapes-1972","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
