While artists such as Vija Celmins and Paul Sietsema employ illusionistic painting and drawing, others' use of materials is surprising. What binds these artists together is their rejection of the easy route technology might offer in favor of labor-intensive fabrication. Featuring painting, sculpture, photography, drawing, video and installations by more than 40 artists, Lifelikeis the first publication to address the recent history of artists using these strategies across media
