Abstract

«Welches ist überhaupt die Rolle dessen, was das künstlerische Leben in einer Gesellschaft repräsentiert – nämlich eines Museums?» Dieser Frage Marcel Broodthaers’ und seiner Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema Museum gehen eine Ausstellung im Kunsthaus Zürich und das dazu erscheinende Buch nach. Marcel Broodthaers (1924–1976), eine der eigenwilligsten Figuren der Kunst des 20. Jahrhunderts, war zunächst Dichter, bevor er sich im Alter von 40 Jahren als Autodidakt der bildenden Kunst zuwandte. Am wohl intensivsten beschäftigte er sich als Künstler mit der Institution Museum, ausgelöst durch die Proteste der 1968er-Bewegung. Seine grafischen Editionen – als Begriff von ihm weit gefasst und neben Druckgrafik auch Film, Fotografien und Installationen einschliessend – spiegeln seine Überlegungen zum Museum bestens wider. Die der Ausstellung und dem Buch zugrunde liegende Recherche brachte wichtige neue Erkenntnisse zu Broodthaers’ Schaffen allgemein und zu seinen Werken in der Sammlung des Kunsthaus Zürich hervor, die mit diesem Band nun allgemein zugänglich werden. --Scheidegger & Spiess

Abstract

Ever innovative and predictably diverse in their physical formats, artists' books occupy a creative space between the familiar four-cornered object and challenging works of art that effectively question every preconception of what a book can be. Many artists specialize in producing self-contained art projects in the form of books, like Ken Campbell and Susan King, or they establish small presses, like Simon Cutts and Erica Van Horn's Coracle Press or Harry and Sandra Reese's Turkey Press. Countless others who are primarily known as sculptors, painters, or performance artists carry on a parallel practice in artists' books, including Anselm Kiefer, Annette Messager, Ed Ruscha, and Richard Tuttle. Artists and Their Books / Books and Their Artists includes eighty important examples selected from the Getty Research Institute's Special Collections of more than six thousand editions and unique artists' books. This elegant catalogue also presents precursors to the artist's book, such as Joris Hoefnagel's sixteenth-century calligraphy masterpiece; single-sheet episodes from Albrecht DuIA rer's Life of Mary, designed to be either broadsides or a book; early illustrated scientific works; and avant-garde publications. Twentieth-century works reveal the impact of artists' books on Pop art, Fluxus, Conceptual, feminist art, and postmodernism. The selection of books by an international range of artists who have chosen to work with texts and images on paper provokes new inquiry into the nature of art and books in contemporary culture.

Abstract

"An in-depth look at the disturbing and abject sides of the American photo artist's oeuvre. Throughout her career, Cindy Sherman (*1954 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey) has been interested in the derailed and deviant sides of human nature, noticeable both in her selection of subject matter (fairytales, disasters, sex, horror, and surrealism) and in her disquieting interpretations of well-established photographic genres, such as film stills, fashion photography, and society portraiture. This richly illustrated publication seeks to highlight and acknowledge these aspects of her work based on selected examples and accompanied by texts by well-known authors, filmmakers, and artists who likewise deal with the grotesque, the uncanny, and the extraordinary in their artistic practice."--Publisher's website.

Abstract

Connu dans le monde entier pour ses travaux controversés, tels que "cloaca" ou ses cochons tatoués, Wim Delvoye (1965) mélange culture élitiste et imagerie populaire. Mêlant ainsi l'artisanat et le concept, l'ironie et la provocation iconoclaste. Ce catalogue, qui accompagne l'exposition "Knockin' on heaven's door" porte sur l'ensemble des œuvres gothiques élaborées par Delvoye depuis 2000 : la pièce maîtresse en est "Torre (Venezia)" de 17 mètres qui se trouve actuellement sur le toit de Bozar, après avoir été exposée à Venise (2009). Puis à Paris (2010), liées aux motifs gothiques d'un point de vue thématique et formel. Les oeuvres en bronze des "crucifix" torsadés poursuivent l'exploration de la religion, de la science et des relations qui les unissent.

Abstract

De conceptuele kunst stelde de gebruikelijke definitie van een kunstwerk - namelijk een door een kunstenaar vervaardigd voorwerp - danig op de proef. In dit toegankelijke boek wordt beschreven waarom de nieuwe avant-garde, die opkwam in de jaren zestig en zeventig van de twintigste eeuw, zulke baanbrekende kunst vervaardigde en in hoeverre deze beweging moet worden gezien als het keerpunt tussen de modernistische schilderkunst uit het verleden en de postmodernistische hedendaagse kunst.

Abstract

This publication is the first major monograph on the work of the Belgian artist Fabrice Samyn (born 1981). It is organised in various sets of analogies (form, sign, theme), and gives the measure of a work structured as a tree around the question of identity. It thrives in a space which includes diversities and dualities. In it we mainly discover the dualities between icon and idol, light and shade, presence and duration, male and female, author and impostor. Although Samyn's oeuvre developed at the same time as the internet and follows a similar organic growth, it gives full credit to skill and materiality. The artist either seeks close collaboration with craftsman or rises to the challenge of mastering the various media that he uses himself, be it painting, sculpture, poetry and more recently choreography. This copiously illustrated volume contains essays by Vinciane Despret, philosopher of sciences and professor at the University of Liege; Pascal Rousseau, professor of Contemporary Art History at Paris 1, and art historian Wivine de Traux.

Abstract

Live or Die: Philippe Vandenberg - Bruce Nauman is the catalogue to the exhibition of the same name held in Gallery Sofie Van De Velde, Antwerp, in 2017. The catalog includes a selection of works by Philippe Vandenberg and American artist Bruce Nauman. At first, it may seem startling to see Nauman's small but dense selection of works alongside those by Vandenberg. And yet there's something that links the oeuvre of these apparently divergent artists. With essays by Prof. Dr. Anna Dezeuze (École Supérieure d'Art et de Design Marseille-Méditerranée), Dr. Brigitte Kölle (Hamburger Kunsthalle), and Prof. Dr. John C. Welchman (University of California, San Diego).
