William Wegman is best known for his collaborations with his Weimaraners but it was as a key figure in 1970s West Coast Conceptual art and a pioneer in the developing medium of video art that he was first recognized. It was in Los Angeles in 1970 that he began working with his dog Man Ray, and he has continued to collaborate with his ever-expanding cast of Weimaraners since that time. The author of numerous books for adults and over a dozen books for children, Wegman's work has been exhibited in museums and galleries internationally, including retrospective exhibitions at the Pompidou Center in Paris, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.
