The AC Institute is pleased to announce the reissue of "Essaying Essays: Alternative Forms of Exposition" a collection originally compiled and edited by Richard Kostelanetz. First published in 1975, Essaying Essays is a view into the revolutionary aesthetic of the late 1960s and early 1970s. The content of this edition runs the gamut from the avant garde to concrete writing to the Fluxus movement. The wide array of contributors includes Vito Acconci, W.H. Auden, John Baldessari, John Cage, Dick Higgins, Lucy R. Lippard, Ad Reinhardt, Richard Serra and Robert Smithson (in addition to many others). Given that much of what is contained this volume cannot be found elsewhere, the reprinting of this collection will prove to be an important scholarly resource for researchers in this area.
