Sturtevant's investigations into the duality of original and copy, object and image, similarity and difference are contributions of outstanding importance.
Elaine Sturtevant (born in 1930 in Lakewood, Ohio), who now lives and works in Paris, has been concerned since the mid-1960s with one of the most important themes in Western art-the aspect of originality. Her works are reproductions of existing works by such artists as Marcel Duchamp, Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, and Frank Stella, to name only a few. Often indistinguishable from the originals, they call attention to the crucial issues of origin and difference. Designed and produced in close collaboration with the artist, this opulently illustrated, two-volume publication is both a catalogue of her oeuvre and an artist's book. Supplemented by probing essays and interviews, it offers an unprecedented overview of the unique and unparalleled work of this American artist.
