Editorial Reviews

Review

"Chance remains a vital process of artistic production in contemporary art. In this anthology, Margaret Iversen has assembled a rich array of interviews, excerpts, essays, and statements to illuminate the artistic uses of chance in various media in recent decades. The book promises every reader of its pages an ample supply of lucky encounters and will doubtless serve as an important catalyst for further inquiry."--Robin Kelsey, Shirley Carter Burden Professor of Photography, Harvard University
