Peter Downsbrough The Book(s) 1968-2013

Since 1968, Peter Downsbrough (1940, New Brunswick, N.J., U.S.A., based in Brussels) has made one hundred and one books. For the first time in Barcelona, the exhibition THE BOOK(S) 1968-2013 offers an extensive overview of this impressive component of his oeuvre. Peter Downsbrough belongs to that first generation of artists —including colleagues such as Robert Barry, Sol LeWitt, and Lawrence Weiner in New York; and John Baldessari, Ed Ruscha, and Allan Ruppersberg in California— who use the book as a means for presenting their work.
