"New Ways of Doing Nothing," a group exhibition that took place at Kunsthalle Wien in 2014, devoted itself to artistic production that opposes activity and instead gives an affirmative slant to forms of doing nothing or refraininga major influence being the titular character of Hermann Melvilles "Bartleby the Scriviner: A Story of Wall Street." The book presents the displayed works and artists, but also continues the process that led to the exhibition. Included along with a conversation between the curators is a text collage of reprints and excerpts that introduces those artists and thinkers who, in the words of Bartleby, "prefer not to."
