14 Americans: Directions of the 1970s

Fourteen American artists pioneer the unknown, challenging conventional norms and expanding the scope of art and our understanding of reality.

Artists in the 1970s exhibit a desire for the unknown, using innovative materials and techniques to push boundaries and explore the space around them. This group, featured in 14 Americans, incorporates engineering, construction, and written texts to create art that engages the viewer as either a passive spectator or active participant. Through performances, sculptures, earthworks, furniture, and canvases, artists like Mary Miss and Scott Burton redefine the concept of art and challenge traditional approaches to creation.
