In 1970 photography curator Peter C. Bunnell organized an exhibition called Photography into Sculpture for the Museum of Modern Art; New York. The project; which brought together twenty-three photographers and artists from the United States and Canada; was among the first exhibitions to recognize work that blurred the boundaries between photography and other mediums. At once an exhibition catalogue after the fact; an oral history; and a critical reading of exhibitions and experimental photography during the 1960s and 1970s; The Photographic Object 1970 proposes precedents for contemporary artists who continue to challenge traditional practices and categories. Mary Statzer has gathered a range of diverse materials; including contributions from Bunnell; Eva Respini and Drew Sawyer; Erin Orsquo;Toole; Lucy Soutter; and Rebecca Morse as well as interviews with Ellen Brooks; Michael de Courcy; Richard Jackson; Jerry McMillan; and other of the exhibitionrsquo;s surviving artists. Featuring seventy-nine illustrations; most of them in color; this volume is an essential resource on a groundbreaking exhibition.
