Abstract

Première anthologie exclusivement consacrée à l'artiste américain Tony Oursler, Vox Vernacular réunit écrits, monologues, dialogues, tests psychologiques et poésie burlesque kaléidoscopique sélectionnés sur plus de 35 ans de production de l'artiste multimédia. De ses premières vidéos et projections sculpturales à ses interventions publiques et autres cosmologies intérieures, cet ouvrage ambitieux propose une lecture graphique sans précédent d'une des œuvres poétiques les plus inventives de notre époque. Le langage versatile utilisé par l'artiste dans ses installations fantasmagoriques révèle au lecteur son obsession de la beauté, des télécommunications, de la maladie mentale, des systèmes de croyances et de l'ontologie. Publiée à l'occasion de l'exposition Phantasmagoria de Tony Oursler au Grand-Hornu en 2013, cette anthologie richement illustrée et commentée est le fruit d'une collaboration étroite avec l'artiste, qui a souhaité choisir personnellement les transcriptions de ses œuvres multimédias réalisées entre 1977 et 2013.

Abstract

The authors of After the Revolution return with an incisive study of the work of contemporary women artists.In After the Revolution, the authors concluded that "The battles may not all have been won . . . but barricades are gradually coming down, and work proceeds on all fronts in glorious profusion." Now, with The Reckoning, authors Heartney, Posner, Princenthal, and Scott bring into focus the accomplishments of 24 acclaimed international women artists born since 1960 who have benefited from the groundbreaking efforts of their predecessors. The book is organized in four thematic sections: "Bad Girls" profiles artists whose work represents an assault on conventional notions of gender and racial difference. "History Lessons" offers reflections on the self in the context of history and globalization. "Spellbound" focuses on womens embrace of the irrational, subjective, and surreal, while "Domestic Disturbances" takes on women's conflicted relationship to home, family, and security. Written in lively prose and fully illustrated throughout, this book gives an informed account of the wonderful diversity of recent contemporary art by women.

Abstract

Louise Lawler has devoted her art practice to investigating the life cycle of art objects. Her photographs depict art in the collector's home, the museum, the auction house, and the commercial gallery, on loading docks, and in storage closets. Her work offers a sustained meditation on the strategies of display that shape art's reception and distribution. The cumulative effect of Lawler's photographs is a silent insistence that context is the primary shaper of art's meaning. Informed by feminism and institutional critique, Lawler's witty, poignant, and trenchant photos frequently pay attention to a host of overlooked details―almost Freudian slips―that ineffably and tacitly shore up what we conventionally think of as art's “power.” This book includes the earliest published text on Lawler's work; an examination of her ephemera (Lawler produced, among other things, matchbooks and paperweights); a rare interview with the artist, conducted by Douglas Crimp; a conversation between George Baker and Andrea Fraser on Lawler's work; and essays by writers including Rosalind Krauss, Rosalyn Deutsche, and Helen Molesworth, the volume's editor. The book traces the changing reception of Lawler's work from early preoccupations with appropriation to later discussions of affect. "synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

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.
