Douglas Huebler, 72
A founder of conceptual art movement of '60s, '70s
TRURO - Douglas Huebler, one of the innovators responsible for founding the conceptual art movement of the late 1960s and '70s, and a former dean of the School of Art at the California Institute of the Arts in Santa Clarita, Calif., died Saturday in Truro at 72. He died of pancreatic cancer, said a son, Dorne Huebler. Along with American artists Robert Barry, Lawrence Weiner and Joseph Kosuth, Huebler had a 1969 exhibition in New York that is credited with originating the conceptual movement, which was actually named by a critic two years later. Conceptualism emphasized art as an idea rather than an object and was a reaction to the pop and optical art of the 1960s. Remaining a prominent part of avant-garde discourse for a decade, it remains central to much critically acclaimed work of the 1990s. Huebler also taught at Miami University in Ohio, at Bradford College in Massachusetts and at Harvard University. Huebler's work is exhibited at such institutions as the Museum of Modern Art and the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Museum of Contemporary Art in San Diego, the Tate Gallery in London, the Musee National d'Art Moderne in Paris and the Israel Museum in Jerusalem. Born in Ann Arbor, Mich., on Oct. 27, 1924, he grew up in a poor farming family. After serving as an air combat intelligence officer in the Pacific in World War II, he was able to study art in Paris on the GI Bill. Huebler is survived by his wife, Stephani Weinschel; daughter Kate Huebler; and from an earlier marriage, son, Dorne Huebler of Kagel Canyon, Calif., and daughters Darcy Huebler of Santa Clarita and Dana Huebler of Los Angeles.
