Summary:

This book is published on the occasion of a major survey of Viola's work organized by the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, which has traveled to Los Angeles and Amsterdam and which arrives in Frankfurt in Spring 1999.

Through contributions by over 30 authors from many different disciplines the Editor offers for the first time an interpretive framework which draws on the aesthetic consideration of each individual work, and thus sheds new light on the complexity of Viola's entire ceuvre. In his introduction Rolf Lauter presents an overview of the installations and videos and draws out the "elective affinities" between the many different pieces.
