In this new volume, \u003ci\u003eRyan McGinley: Way Far\u003c\/i\u003e, the artist presents a collection of his most recent work. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e McGinley was the first of his generation of artists to explore the nude figure within the American landscape. With a fresh set of eyes, he embarked on an on-going series of images that were shot during months-long summer road trips cross-country. Transfixed by the open vistas and the picturesque wilderness he found along the way, McGinley and his models—not unlike explorers from another century—set out to rediscover these unpopulated spaces. Whether hiking on peat covered mountains, swimming in crystalline lakes, or rolling around in vast fields of tall grass, the artist's images of bodies in pastoral scenes have been his signature, and his triumph has been his ability to evoke the almost dream-like state that comes with that kind of freedom.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e As one of the most critically acclaimed photographers working today and rightfully considered the voice of a generation, no other contemporary artist’s work has permeated pop culture this indelibly. \u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Rimanelli \u003c\/b\u003ebegan writing about art in 1988 and has chronicled developments in the New York art world for over two decades. From 1993 to 1999, he was an editor and writer for the \u003ci\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e and, since 1997, has been a contributing editor at \u003ci\u003eArtforum\u003c\/i\u003e, writing also for\u003ci\u003e Bookforum, Interview, Vogue Paris, frieze, Parkett, the New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFlash Art. \u003c\/i\u003eHe wrote some of the first articles on artists who are now influential figures, ranging from Cindy Sherman, Mike Kelley, Thomas Ruff, and Matthew Barney to Carol Bove and Nate Lowman.","brand":"Rizzoli","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46304282444005,"sku":"NP9780847846918","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780847846917_9fb57568-7955-4ac6-b7ed-b785cb80507e.jpg?v=1730756844","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/ryan-mcginley-way-farisbn-9780847846918","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
