Over a career spanning five decades, Knifer developed a singularly restrained practice focusing on the variation of a single visual motif: the meander. Knifer's meanders have been interpreted differently depending on the period in which they appeared: first in the context of geometric abstraction and neo-constructivism of the “New Tendencies” of the 1960s. Today, they are more often understood as a gesture of resistance, with their asceticism and interest in the absurdism of anti-art and the neo avant-garde. This book focuses on a group of collages, produced in the late 1950s and early 1960s, that illustrates the development of the meander motif at a pivotal moment in Knifer's career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ARTBOOK | D.A.P.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47630980350191,"sku":"9780991660865","price":91.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2487\/0602\/files\/19_3de94a1a-8118-40d0-831a-0efa403eb6e0.png?v=1770424031","url":"https:\/\/www.shoppeblendedliving.com\/products\/julije-knifer-collages-for-meanders","provider":"Blended Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
