Dan Graham

Dan Graham (1942-2022) was an American artist, writer and curator, born in Urbana, Illinois, and active in New York. He worked across conceptual art, video, performance, architecture and criticism, and wrote about rock music as a cultural form. He is best known for his walk-in pavilions of glass, two-way mirror and steel, installed in public spaces around the world, which make viewers watch themselves and each other. Dan Graham's magazine piece Homes for America (1966-67) presented suburban tract housing as a photo essay on the printed page.
