Résumé:

"Rachel Whiteread is perhaps the most important living British artist. In The Art of Rachel Whiteread a group of leading critics from museums and universities in Europe and North America examine the full range of Whiteread's work, from the early domestic pieces of the late 1980s, through to her most recent public art projects such as Monument and Room 101. These essays examine both the art historical legacy of post-minimalism within which Whiteread works and the historical commentaries that her site specific projects engender, and they suggest new critical approaches to what is likely to be one of the most enduring artistic projects of our time."--Jacket.
