Universal Experience: Art, Life, and the Tourist's Eye

Universal Experience addresses issues related to tourism, including spectacle, architecture, authenticity, history, souvenirs, and anthropology. It focuses on the phenomenon of international visual artists whose work responds to their travels and experiences living within various cultures. Functioning as a guidebook, a reader, and a souvenir, this lavish exhibition catalogue presents more than 275 illustrations of thought-provoking artworks; as icons and as tourist sites for exploration. This wide-ranging anthology of texts presents divergent routes and avenues through which to explore the symbols and cultural conventions that are being created, deciphered, and disseminated by an increasingly mobile and international group of artists. By Francesco Bonami and Julie Rodrigues Widholm, edited by Tricia Van Eck, 280 pages, paperback, MCA Chicago, 2005.
