420 West Broadway
This black-and-white, staple-bound catalog accompanied an exhibition of 33 artists at 420 West Broadway during the 1972 Spoleto Festival. Having only recently become an artistic hub with the influx of the Soho branches of renowned galleries Leo Castelli, Sonnabend, John Weber, and André Emmerich, 420 West Broadway enjoyed a freedom, relaxation, and spaciousness missing from the uptown sales rooms. This breathing room allowed the galleries to represent more young artists and exhibit large scale painting and sculpture, videotape, film, and slide projection, and non-commercial experiential and perceptual environments.
The publication itself is split according to gallery, with more space given to the John Weber and Sonnabend galleries. Each exhibited artist occupies a page, and the selection includes Sol Lewitt, Carl Andre, Mel Bochner, Bernd and Hilla Becher, Vito Acconci, Robert Rauschenberg, and many more.
