Fine in Near Fine dust jacket (light crinkle at lower front fold, else Fine). This catalogue documents Matthew Barney's eight-year Cremaster project. Beginning with work from before the Cremaster films, Nancy Spector's text (accompanied by dozens of illustrations), establishes the importance of Barney's five films, not only grappling with his rigorous sexual logic, but delving into the roles geography, identity and form serve in his film--and ultimately, art--cycle. Although the Cremaster cycle was made out of order (4, 1, 5, 2, 3), the book is organized numerically, featuring stills, details and plans for films 1 through 5. A necessary comprehensive volume for anyone interested in Barney's work.
