''Bruce Nauman: Topological Gardens proposes three points of entry, or "threads," with which to access and experience four decades of work by Bruce Nauman: Heads and Hands, Sound and Space, and Fountains and Neons.  The threads are discussed at length in the essays by Carlos Basualdo and Erica F. Battle included in this book.  Since these recurrent threads can be traced through much of Nauman's art, the exhibition checklist points toward a larger possible selection of works that were continuously part of our overall thought process.  For the purposes of making these provisional categories-which have no order or hierarchy, clear to the reader, we have color-coded all images of Nauman's works, those on view in the exhibition and otherwise, throughout the catalogue. It must be noted that any number of threads could potentially be developed in the interpretation of Nauman's oeuvre, and that these organizing principles should not be considered either exclusive or exhaustive, but strategically useful for the purposes of this exhibition.'' Trs belle condition.
