One essay explores Levine's early work as an artist and critic to identify the sources of his ideas around perception and the body's role in artistic experience. A second highlights how Levine translates Thoreau's themes of solitude and introspection among nature into a public art experience. Two essays focus on \u003ci\u003eVermont Village\u003c\/i\u003e; one describes its genesis and construction, the other places the work within the genre of artist-built environments. Rounding out the essays are texts by artists who knew Levine, and a detailed chronology. The book concludes with a selection of Levine's own writings, chosen for their passionate advocacy for individual creativity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ed Levine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1646570561\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781646570560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Marquand Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/11\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Ed Levine","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48659807633663,"sku":"9781646570560","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6e623b5b-7978-4b9c-9712-e84e6e80c06a.jpg?v=1781203382","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ed-levine-ed-levine-9781646570560","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
