Zvi Goldstein (b. Transylvania, 1947; lives and works in Jerusalem) is a conceptual artist who creates object-like sculptures of great sensual and intellectual radiance. Living in Milan from 1969 until 1978, he made art that combined an analytical-synthetic approach with sociologically inspired critique. In 1978, however, he radically broke with the avant-gardes of the time. He moved to Jerusalem and developed a distinctive position independent from, though in communication with, the Western context. The result is a complex and open oeuvre based on multiple interconnected series and ensembles of works. Goldstein was among the first artists to take on the challenges of the globalized world and adopt a hybrid artistic stance. His multifaceted and enticing utopian vision goes far beyond a portrayal of the contemporary global status quo. The core of the book is a catalogue raisonn� of all known works created between 1969 and 2014. Each of the ca. 230 works is shown in an illustration complemented by detailed information on its exhibition history and provenience and a bibliography. With seven conversations between Ory Dessau, Julian Heynen, and Eva Meyer-Hermann on Goldstein's artistic techniques, as well as visual annotations and comments by the artist.
