Felix Gonzalez-Torres (1957-96) was born in Cuba and grew up in Puerto Rico before moving to New York City. One of the most influential artists of his generation, Gonzalez-Torres lived and worked resolutely according to his own democratic ideology, determined to ""make this a better place for everyone."" Combining principles of conceptual art, minimalism, political activism and poetic beauty, his ever-changing arsenal included public billboards, give-away piles of candy or posters, and ordinary objects (clocks, mirrors, light fixtures) often used to startling effect. His work challenged the notions of public and private space, originality, authorship and-most significantly-the authoritative structure in which he functioned. Steidl published Felix Gonzalez-Torres in 2016.
