Joshua Hagler's Nihil explores in an absolutely unique way the realisation and consummation of the mind, process and application of an artist's life and work. Hagler defined for himself nine key tenets to guide his artistic vision and then utilised and inhabited nine spaces in New Mexico to articulate this vision. His site-specific installations and interventions in lost and forgotten buildings, schools, churches and post offices create ghostly imaginative spaces that integrate many times and places hovering within a single moment. This extraordinary and unique sequence of work is documented and recorded in this important publication of a singular artistic vision. 'The law of the conservation of mass states that nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed. Here lies the pathos to Joshua Hagler's convoluted mental and pictorial universe.' - David Anfam, Art Historian & Curator
