Paul Thek (1933–1988) was an American artist, who worked with a wide range of materials to create paintings and sculptures, as well as a number of ambitious installations considered immersive environments before such practice was popular. Thek was featured in more than forty solo exhibitions, and his work featured in sixty group shows at institutions such as the ICA London, Moderna Museet, Stockholm, and Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam. Recognition of Thek as a major international artist came posthumously in the United States when the Whitney Museum of American Art mounted the first American retrospective of his work in 2010.
Thek’s life as an artist had many ups and downs, and at times he struggled financially and had difficulty working. His attitude towards art is best described by his statement: “Real art is done with and for the people … REAL is what FEELS + SMELLS + TASTES.” He generally disliked the New York art scene, where “fancy people looking at a lot of stuff that didn’t say anything about anything to anyone.” (pp. 19 & 17)

OPEN TODAY 11-5 PM. NEW IN THE BOOKSHOP: PAUL THEK - PROCESSIONS (1977) - The great, and very rare, Paul Thek "Processions" catalogue from 1977. - "Processions (: The Tower of Babel, Uncle Tom's Cabin, Bandwagon, The Burning Bridge, Bo Jangles, Jack Lantern, Paul Thek, Zhivago)" was published on the occasion of the exhibition "Paul Thek / Processions" at the Institute of Contemporary Art, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, 30 October to 4 December 1977. This handsome, heavily illustrated catalogue is a very important title in the history of Thek's work as it was the only published document dedicated to his immersive, site-specific installations. Selected and arranged by Thek with curator Suzanne Delehanty, these pages help capture the most conceptually complicated and complete environments created by Thek to that date, including The Tomb-Death of a Hippie (1967), A Procession in Honor of Aesthetic Progress... (1968), The Procession/The Artist's Co-op (1969), Pyramid/A Work in Progress (1971-72), A Station of the Cross (1972), Ark, Pyramid (1972), Ark, Pyramid, Easter (1973), and more, along with his Technological Reliquaries (1965-1967), Fishman (1968), works on paper and bronze sculpture (1973-1977), list of exhibitions, bibliography, text by Suzanne Delehanty and more. - A must for any Thek collection.
