Born in London in 1943, Stephen Willats is a pioneer of conceptual art and has, over the course of more than five decades,created a multi-faceted body of work. This new book, published in conjunction with Migros Museum of Contemporary Art inZurich, focuses on two key aspects of Willats' art. Cybernetics, the control of dynamic systems, in which he has taken a keen interest, serves him as method, aesthetic vocabulary, as well as a formal model. Subcultures that promote non-conformism andself-determination constitute another focal point in his wide-ranging work.
