"The book explores a pivotal moment in art and culture in New York City. The radical changes that occurred in the three years between January 1962 and December 1964 had a profound effect on creative life in the city and around the world, altering not only the fine arts but everything from performance to music to design. The volume was conceived by the lead curator of the accompanying exhibition, Germano Celant, Artistic and Scientific Superintendent of the Prada Foundation, Milan. The book features interviews by Celant with Christo and Jim Dine with tributes by Claudia Gould and Michael Rock. The development of the book's extensive month-by-month chronology was supervised by Sam Sackeroff, Lerman-Neubauer Associate Curator at the Jewish Museum, a contributor to the catalogue along with international, multidisciplinary scholars including Emily Bauman, Ninotchka D. Bennahum, Jennifer G. Buonocore-Nedrelow, Olivia Casa, Laura Conconi, J. English Cook, Maria Corti, Michaëla de Lacaze Mohrmann, Joshua B. Guild, Liz Hirsch, Hiroko Ikegami, Susan Murray, Kristina Parsons, Benjamin Serby, Jennifer Sichel, and Robert Slifkin. Images include artworks as well as archival photographs."--
