Reviews: William Wegman and Dennis Oppenheim

by Roberta Smith

Artforum, May 1974, v. 12, no. 9

This series of reviews considers the work of, among others, William Wegman and Dennis Oppenheim. Reviewer Roberta Smith finds Wegman’s work touching and oddly humorous, whereas the power of Oppenheim’s video is obstructed by the smell of the turpentine component of the installation.
