Reviews
" " Bruce Nauman: The True Artist offers the fullest survey yet of this protean artist's work. [Peter Plagens's] first‐person journalistic tack is a welcome approach to an artist who often attracts jargon‐fond academics." - The New York Times Book Review "Bruce Nauman is known for almost always saying no to retrospectives, interviews, or anything else that might "totalize", as he's said to put it, his work and career. So this month's publication of Phaidon's monograph on the artist, Bruce Nauman: The True Artist , is a red‐letter occasion, if only because it represents one of the rare moments when Nauman said yes. Written by Peter Plagens, an abstract painter who was the art critic for Newsweek from 1989 to 2003, the book has been in the works since 2008 - or even longer, if you count the fact that Phaidon's co‐publisher, Amanda Renshaw, had been trying to get Nauman to agree to a project since she joined the company more than 20 years ago. . .While Nauman looms as a cross between the Marlboro Man and an art‐world Greta Garbo, Plagens is an unrepentant chatterbox who tends toward mighty digressions. But that's also what makes the book such a delight. Full of riffs on subjects ranging from the use of neon in art to the history of the Venice Biennale, it's as much a social history of the modern‐day art world as it is a guide to Nauman's life and career." - Carol Kino, The Wall Street Journal "An astute observer of the contemporary art scene from his days as Nauman's neighbor in 1970s Los Angeles, Plagens gives us a vivid vignette of the artist. . .This book will remain the definitive monograph for years to come." - ARTnews "In this meticulous authorized monograph, critic Plagens, a longtime friend of Nauman, weaves historical context, critical perspective, and his own reflections to study the career of one of the most, if not the most, influential artists of the last half‐century." - Publishers Weekly "Plagens's new book on Nauman is the closest I, and most of the world, may ever get to the artist." - Justin Jones, The Daily Beast "[Plagens] seeks to view the subject whole. His approach is not one of scholarly distance but of personal engagement and strong opinion." - Art in America ", ". . .

Synopsis
The first authorized monograph on the world-famous sculptor, photographer, and video artist. In Bruce Nauman: The True Artist , Peter Plagens - a renowned writer, critic, and author who has known Nauman for more than forty years - delivers a personal and authoritative account tracing Nauman's entire career, from his youth in Fort Wayne, Indiana, to his graduate work at the University of California, and through to the present day. Plagens first met Nauman in Pasadena, California, in 1970, where their studios were a block apart and they played basketball together every Sunday. Since then, Plagens has pursued a real understanding of his friend's art. The book chronicles Nauman's process, from the creation of works in his New Mexico studio to the organization, installation, and reception of his exhibitions. Throughout, Plagens is a savvy and engaging guide to the work, using his own attempts to puzzle out the meaning of the pieces, as well as the artist's conversations about them, to offer readers a vivid and enlightening take on one of the key figures in contemporary art.
