Download or read book I hate Paul Klee written by Renate Goldmann and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen years ago, Siegfried Gohr pinpointed the connection between the collected works, which resides in language, in words, sentences and poetry, because "the collection itself which holds a certain distraction within it, embodies the masterpiece as non-identity." This perspective is somewhat outmoded nowadays - inasmuch as the collector has long since hugely extended his range of works with pieces by Pierre Klossowski, Enrico David, Nicole Eisenmann, Cerith Wyan evans or Franz von Bayros - for the simple reason that it is not the collection, that is to say the collector, which cosntitutes the masterpiece, but rather the fact that the movement around the masterpieces needs to be traces.
Download or read book Capital written by Kenneth Goldsmith and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 928 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed artist Kenneth Goldsmith’s thousand-page homage to New York City Here is a kaleidoscopic assemblage and poetic history of New York: an unparalleled and original homage to the city, composed entirely of quotations. Drawn from a huge array of sources—histories, memoirs, newspaper articles, novels, government documents, emails—and organized into interpretive categories that reveal the philosophical architecture of the city, Capital is the ne plus ultra of books on the ultimate megalopolis. It is also a book of experimental literature that transposes Walter Benjamin’s unfinished magnum opus of literary montage on the modern city, The Arcades Project, from nineteenth-century Paris to twentieth-century New York, bringing the streets and its inhabitants to life in categories such as “Sex,” “Central Park,” “Commodity,” “Loneliness,” “Gentrification,” “Advertising,” and “Mapplethorpe.” Capital is a book designed to fascinate and to fail—for can a megalopolis truly ever be captured in words? Can a history, no matter how extensive, ever be comprehensive? Each reading of this book, and of New York, is a unique and impossible project.

Download or read book Unmapping the Renaissance written by Walter D. Mignolo and published by Verlag Fur Moderne Kunst. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The city of Florence is regarded as the birthplace of the Renaissance. The fact that the economic and commercial power structures that developed during this time also brought about the colonization of non-European worlds through linguistic and semiotic hegemony, among other things, is to this day rarely incorporated into the traditional Florentine narrative.Post-colonial theoretical approaches question the role of the Latin alphabet, of printing, of language in the dominance of the renaissance narrative - in particular, these more recent approaches revisit social ideals on whose flip sides are the dispossession, canonization and hierarchizing of culture, memory and space. These ideals and their contrasting opposites unfolded, and continue to unfold, in the afterlife of the renaissance narrative.

Download or read book Unpacking My Library written by Marcel Proust and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A captivating tour of the bookshelves of ten leading artists, exploring the intricate connections between reading, artistic practice, and identity Taking its inspiration from Walter Benjamin's seminal 1931 essay, the Unpacking My Library series charts a spirited exploration of the reading and book collecting practices of today's leading thinkers. Artists and Their Books showcases the personal libraries of ten important contemporary artists based in the United States (Mark Dion, Theaster Gates, Wangechi Mutu, Ed Ruscha, and Carrie Mae Weems), Canada (Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller), and the United Kingdom (Billy Childish, Tracey Emin, and Martin Parr). Through engaging interviews, the artists discuss the necessity of reading and the meaning of books in their lives and careers. This is a book about books, but it even more importantly highlights the role of literature in shaping an artist's self-presentation and persona. Photographs of each artist's bookshelves present an evocative glimpse of personal taste, of well-loved and rare volumes, and of the individual touches that make a bookshelf one's own. The interviews are accompanied by "top ten" reading lists assembled by each artist, an introduction by Jo Steffens, and Marcel Proust's seminal essay "On Reading."
Download or read book Tell Me about Yesterday Tomorrow written by Nicolaus Schafhausen and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical events and our knowledge of them inevitably mold our understanding of today's world. This interdisciplinary volume focuses on institutional memory--on the connection between past and future. Tell Me About Yesterday Tomorrow is a bold and unusual publication whose approaches and themes extend from biographical experiences via intergenerational exchange, to the discussion of current social phenomena. To what extent does knowledge of the past, or lack thereof, influence our view of the present and our conception of the future? Authors from the realms of history, art, philosophy, journalism, poetry, cartoons, and film investigate complex everyday reality in history and the present, directing their attention towards the shifts in political hegemonies which lead to ostracism, denigration, and destruction. The editors of this volume have explicitly chosen to emphasize an international perspective which shows that social polarization and radicalization are not phenomena limited by national boundaries, but are universal social manifestations in a globally interlinked world. Tell Me About Yesterday Tomorrow includes authors such as Roger Cohen, Liam Gillick, Ydessa Hendeles, Sebastian Jung, Leon Kahane, Annette Kelm, Cathrin Lorch, Fred Moten, Khalil Muhammad, Andrea Pet , Dirk Rupnow, Philippe Sands, Geraldine Schwarz, and Niko Wahl. This volume is presented in cooperation with the Munich Documentation Centre for the History of National Socialism, a place of education and remembrance documenting and addressing the crimes of the Nazi dictatorship and their origins, manifestations, and consequences up to the present day.

Download or read book The ancients stole all our great ideas written by Edward Ruscha and published by Walther Konig Verlag. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Museums often ask artists to curate their 'private collections' from their inventory as exhibitions. One is reminded of the famous The Artist Eye series in which Hockney, Lucian Freud, Francis Bacon and Bridget Riley put together their exhibition, or the historic exhibition Raid the Icebox, which Andy Warhol put together in 1969 from the collection of the Museum of Art of the Rhode Island School of Design.This exhibition and catalogue promise to be just as interesting, as the artist/curator is one of the innovative and international esteemed painters, drawers, photographers, book-makers of our time and the Museum of Art History in Vienna with its Kunstkammer is one of the greatest treasure troves in the world. The only common thread connecting the exhibits is the eye of the artist.Published alongside the exhibition at The Museum of Art History in Vienna (25 September to 2 December 2012).English and German text.

Download or read book Charley 05 written by Maurizio Cattelan and published by Deste Foundation for Contemporary Art. This book was released on 2007-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charley is an approximately annual publication edited by Maurizio Cattelan, Massimiliano Gioni and Ali Subotnick, and designed by The Purtill Family Business. It is as visual as a magazine and as substantial as a book, but refuses to abide by either genre's rules. Following earlier editions on the 2001-2002 New York art season, on neglected artists from the 80s and early 90s, and on museum acquisitions, this new volume rounds up the stray dogs of contemporary art--Charley 5 features artists who have remained forgotten, proudly secluded or just unnoticed, in spite of their visionary work. Its galleries of obsessions mix professionals and amateurs, cult figures and unknowns, unheard prophets, voluntary outcasts and great solitary masters and freaks, celebrating the extreme subjectivity of more than 50 voices and implicitly questioning accepted hierarchies in the process. The editors have said of their recent work, "it's a way to say, look around...The latest issues of Charley are a lot about 'What ifs': what if there were many more artists than we actually speak about? What if our artist list was just partial and irrelevant?" Charley is sponsored by the Deste Foundation, Athens, Greece, which supports artist's projects, exhibitions, and symposia that explore the relationship between contemporary art and culture.
