Nothing seems to me the most potent thing in the world --Robert Barry

At over 500 pages, The Defining of It... is the first comprehensive monograph to explore the Minimalist and Conceptualist work of Robert Barry (born 1936), a member of New York's avant-garde art scene best known for his language-based works and artist's books. Spanning from Barry's formative years in the 1950s to his pivotal contributions to Minimalism and Conceptualism in the latter half of the 20th century, this landmark publication offers an unprecedented look at the artist's evolution and legacy. Developed in close collaboration with the artist, the book presents a critical and far-reaching analysis of Barry's work alongside a rich and largely unpublished iconography sourced from international collections and the artist's personal archives.
