about the book
about the book
In the late 1960s, Lee Lozano conceived of and executed a series of ‘language pieces,’ written in the pages of her notebooks, consisting of rules and parameters for the actions that would constitute a piece. From offering money to house-guests to smoking as much marijuana as possible, Lozano boldly tested social norms, culminating in two of her most famous works: ‘General Strike Piece’ (1969), which saw her retreating from the art world completely, and ‘Decide to Boycott Women’ (1971), in which she ceased engaging with all members of her own gender.

The Artist
Learn MoreLee Lozano
Lee Lozano’s paintings are admired for their energy, daring physicality and tirelessness in investigating the body and issues of gender. Although lauded by Lucy Lippard in 1995 as the foremost female conceptual artist of her time, Lozano had disengaged herself from the New York art world completely by the early 1970s. She left behind a body of work of striking formal breadth and complexity.
