Abstract

"Kiki Smith: Prints, Books, and Things is the most complete survey yet of Smith's printed art. Published to accompany an exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, in the winter of 2003-4, it contains 137 color plates documenting her work in the medium, beginning with her first screenprint, made in 1980, and including works that were in progress as this book was being written. Also featured is an eight-page printed work that Smith created especially for the book. An innovative experimenter, Smith has investigated many kinds of printmaking, from traditional techniques such as etching and lithography to newer, simpler processes such as rubber stamp and photocopy, not to mention artist's books and multiples including blankets and fabric dolls. The reader aware of her sculpture will find much to recognize in these works, with their imagery of the body, of animals and birds, and of the iconography of women, but her printed art develops these themes in ways unique to itself - as Wendy Weitman, Curator in the Museum's Department of Prints and Illustrated Books and the organizer of the exhibition, explains in a comprehensive essay. Kiki Smith: Prints, Books, and Things offers a crucial record of an underacknowledged side of Smith's work. In doing so, it argues powerfully for the importance of printmaking in contemporary art."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

It is already three years since the Belgian artist Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven (AMVK, b. 1951) expressed the wish to assemble material from her extensive HeadNurse Project which she describes as a Sex and Technology project in a publication that puts the whole project into perspective. This was made possible by intensive cooperation between AMVK, the NeuerAachenerKunstverein (NAK), the Kunsthalle Bern and objectif\_exhibitions of Antwerp. &#13;&#13;The publication is the result of a research project, carried out by Patrick Van Rossem for objectif\_exhibitions in co-operation with Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven over the last two years. It accompanies the exhibitions How Reliable is the Brain? (NAK) and AMVK EZFK (Kunsthalle Bern). The two exhibitions are dealt with separately at the end of the publication. The publication of the HeadNurse-files responds to the international interest in a body of work that is unjustly still little-known. The layers of content and interdisciplinary work and the multimedia experimentation AMVK has been carrying out since the Seventies form a major point of reference in relation to the ever more pressing enquiries regarding the specific character of a contemporary medium-specific way of thinking. &#13;&#13;By means of installation shots, film stills and artistic images, the HeadNurse-files present an overview of the project's development from 1995 to 2004 and beyond. They are interspersed with articles, quotations and film scripts by AMVK, by theoretical reflections published in the course of the HeadNurse activities (Filip Luyckx, Corinne Melin, Renate Puvogel, Ronald Van De Sompel and Wim Van Mulders) and new articles (Susanne Titz, Dorothea Olkowski, Philippe Pirotte, Patrick Van Rossem). &#13;&#13;The extensive amount of theoretical contributions gathered in the book is the result of a well-considered decision. The aim was to create a dialogical situation between different theoretical interpretations of the HeadNurse project and its visualisation in the book. The accumulation coincides with the concept of the 'file' in its archival use. The book is designed by the artist herself, conceived as an aesthetic bath from which the many theoretical contributions unfold. &#13;&#13;The files should be seen rather as an in-depth questioning of the artistic significance of AMVK's visual idiom and the complexity of content her media experiment involves. Throughout it the authors explore drawing and painting, pictorial thinking, the digital, multimedia working method and the spatial negotiation between image and support, architecture and installation, viewer and work of art. The positioning of the artistic identity throughout AMVK's style, her fascination for the image of woman and the many references to her own self in image and words form an enduring outline of an artist's position. Incarnation is in this instance located between existence and artistic creation. This too is one of the main focuses of this publication.&#13;&#13;

Abstract

'Gekooid verlangen' is de catalogus bij de gelijknamige tentoonstelling, die het oeuvre presenteert van Jane Graverol en Rachel Baes, twee schilderessen in de marge van het grote surrealistische gebeuren in België tussen 1940 en 1970. Genoten zij nog enige bekendheid in de jaren zestig, dan is hun werk evenwel wat later volledig in de schaduw van hun mannelijke collega's verdwenen, vooral dan van Magritte. De makers van de tentoonstelling zijn er in geslaagd een uitgelezen selectie van een zestigtal werken van beide kunstenaressen samen te brengen. Deze werken werden aangevuld met veel privé-documenten zoals foto's, brieven, dagboekfragmenten en andere archiefstukken die hun leven en werk documenteren. Al dit materiaal is terug te vinden in de catalogus, die tevens een aantal analytische bijdragen bevat over het werk van Graverol en Baes, geplaatst tegen de achtergrond van de Belgische surrealistische stroming. Een bibliografie en een overzicht van individuele en groepstentoonstellingen sluiten de catalogus af.
