{"product_id":"9783037642535","title":"Paul Thek in Process","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1971, Harald Szeemann invited the American sculptor and installation pioneer Paul Thek to contribute to Documenta 5. Szeemann had named one section of the Documenta “Individual Mythologies,” describing a new kind of art structured around a mythology invented by individual artists, rather than by a culture. Thek’s contribution—the now legendary “Pyramid” installation—came to be seen as the supreme example of Individual Mythology, and is one of Thek’s best known works (Documenta 5 is likewise among the most famous of all Documentas to date). \u003ci\u003ePaul Thek in Process\u003c\/i\u003e stems from an unrealized publication that Thek had hoped to produce for Documenta 5, which would enlarge upon the occasion and the mythology of his “Pyramid.” It comprises a trove of previously unpublished photographs recording the installation at Moderna Museet in 1971–72, all of the surviving correspondence between Thek and the museum, work-related ephemera and press coverage of the work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JRP Ringier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47044580540656,"sku":"9783037642535","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783037642535_p0.jpg?v=1763712632","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783037642535","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
