Lee Lozano: Private Book 11

By Lee Lozano

The final pocket-size facsimile edition of Lozano's journals, replete with drawings, diagrams and gutsy aphorisms

Lee Lozano (1930-99) worked primarily in painting, often integrating textual elements and roving restlessly across modes that could be categorized as Surrealism, Pop, Post-Minimalism, Conceptualism and abstraction, all the while shirking any easy definitions. Last added to on January 27, 1972, this is the final volume in a set of 11 facsimile editions of Lozano's journals. Her brief entries, punctuated by drawings and diagrams, are knife-sharp with a poetic cadence. In one from September 24, 1970, she addresses the Whitney Museum of American Art: "HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE ON THE RECEIVING END OF DISRESPECT (ARTIST ? MUSEUM)." Another asks: "IS THIS TOO STRONG FOR LOVE?" These pocket-size notebooks, which contain musings on topics spanning her own work to her scheduled rendezvous to her dreams, provide a portrait of one of the most enigmatic, mercurial figures in the history of art.
