  • Release : 2014-02-01
  • ISBN : 9788862082983

Book excerpt: 1968 is the newest project to emerge from collaboration between TOILETPAPER's Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari and the DESTE Foundation. In an unorthodox revisiting of Dakis Joannou's collection of Italian Radical Design, the irresistibly mischievous duo have merged the seductive lines of furniture and objects with the curves of modernday nymphs ca- vorting in Joannou's Athens home and on the wooded island of Kerkyra. These provocative photographs, infused with TOILETPAPER's antic spirit, give the reader access to the unparalleled Joannou Design Collection and at the same time champion the possibility that "the year that rocked the world" is alive and well.

Book Permanent Food

    Book Details:
  • Author : Maurizio Cattelan
  • Publisher : Les Presses Du Reel
  • Release : 2003
  • ISBN : 9781564660992
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Permanent Food written by Maurizio Cattelan and published by Les Presses Du Reel. This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word "appropriate" can have two very different meanings depending on whether it is used as an adjective or a verb. In the case of "Permanent Food," artist Maurizio Cattelan and Paola Manfrin's periodical of pilfering, it is the active usage of the word, and only the active usage, that is appropriate. Bound together in each issue is a thoroughly bewildering, amusing, grotesque, and blasª selection of images culled from anywhere, everywhere, and nowhere: a German electrical company's ad featuring Tom and Jerry; a trash-strewn airplane interior; a naked fashion model with wide tan lines; a detail of a Victorian dummy; super-tech eyelashes by MAC; a naked woman with her toes in a skeleton's eye and nose sockets; a Mapplethorpe photograph of two leather men; a sweet ceramic puppy; a snow field; a crashed VW beetle; and much, much more. You can't even imagine how much more.

Book excerpt: 1968, the newest project by Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari's TOILETPAPER is an unorthodox and kaleidoscopic walk through the Dakis Joannou collection of Radical Design.A pivotal year for architecture, design and society, 1968 is a lavish collection of dreams and nightmares, a bold and inspiring compendium of colourful, ironic materials, objects, and bodies.TOILETPAPER's interpretation of the collection results in mind blowing photographs that trap us in a complex system of references, crossing layers, three dimensional and real time collages. 1968 is a rainbow, the memory of a storm and the positive projection of a newborn sun: the history plus the future, masterly shown in the drawings by one of the primary characters of the Radical Design movement, Alessandro Mendini, who adds a vital contribution to TOILETPAPER's visuals.Photographs by Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari, and drawings by Alessandro Mendini.

Book The Perpetual Guest

    Book Details:
  • Author : Barry Schwabsky
  • Publisher : Verso Books
  • Release : 2016-03-01
  • ISBN : 1784783250
  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book The Perpetual Guest written by Barry Schwabsky and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading art critic explores the connections between art’s past and present Contemporary art sometimes pretends to have made a clean break with history. In The Perpetual Guest, poet and critic Barry Schwabsky demonstrates that any robust understanding of art’s present must also account for the ongoing life and changing fortunes of its past. Surveying the art world of recent decades, Schwabsky attends not only to its most significant newer faces—among them, Kara Walker, Thomas Hirschhorn, Ai Weiwei, Chris Ofili, and Lorna Simpson—but their forebears as well, both near (Jeff Wall, Nancy Spero, Dan Graham, Cindy Sherman) and more distant (Velázquez, Manet, Matisse, and the portraitists of the Renaissance). Schwabsky’s rich and subtle contributions illuminate art’s present moment in all its complexity: shot through with determinations produced by centuries of interwoven traditions, but no less open-ended for it.

Download or read book Seven Days in the Art World written by Sarah Thornton and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2008 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The art market has been booming. Museum attendance is surging. More people than ever call themselves artists. Contemporary art has become a mass entertainment, a luxury good, a job description, and, for some, a kind of alternative religion. In a series of narratives, Sarah Thornton investigates the drama of a Christie's auction, the workings in Takashi Murakami's studios, the elite at the Basel Art Fair, the eccentricities of Artforum magazine, the competition behind an important art prize, life in a notorious art-school seminar, and the wonderland of the Venice Biennale. She reveals the new dynamics of creativity, taste, status, money, and the search for meaning in life. A judicious and juicy account of the institutions that have the power to shape art history, based on hundreds of interviews with high-profile players, Thornton's entertaining ethnography will change the way you look at contemporary culture.

Book The Trump Effect in Contemporary Art and Visual Culture

Download or read book The Trump Effect in Contemporary Art and Visual Culture written by Kit Messham-Muir and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-12-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2021 Capitol Hill Riot marked a watershed moment when the 'old world' of factbased systems of representation was briefly overwhelmed by the emerging hyper-individual politics of aestheticized emotion. In The Trump Effect in Contemporary Art and Visual Culture, Kit Messham-Muir and Uroš Cvoro analyse the aesthetics that have emerged at the core of 21st-century politics, and which erupted at the US Capitol in January 2021. Looking at this event's aesthetic dimensions through such aspects as QAnon, white resentment and strongman authoritarianism, they examine the world-wide historical trends towards ethno-nationalism and populism that emerged following the end of the Cold War in 1989 and the dawning of the current post-ideological age. Building on their ground-breaking research into how trauma, emotion and empathy have become well-worn tropes in contemporary art informed by conflict, Messham-Muir and Cvoro go further by highlighting the ways in which art can actively disrupt an underlying drift in society towards white supremacism and ultranationalism. Utilising their outsiders' perspective on a so-called American phenomenon, and rejecting American exceptionalism, their theorising of the 'Trump Effect' rejects the idea of Trump as a political aberration, but as a symptom of deeper and longer-term philosophical shifts in global politics and society. As theorists of contemporary art and visual culture, Messham-Muir and Cvoro explore the ways in which these features of the Trump Effect operate through aesthetics, in the intersection of politics and contemporary art, and provide valuable insight into the current political context.

Book Play and Participation in Contemporary Arts Practices

Download or read book Play and Participation in Contemporary Arts Practices written by Tim Stott and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book engages debates in current art criticism concerning the turn toward participatory works of art. In particular, it analyzes ludic participation, in which play and games are used organizationally so that participants actively engage with or complete the work of art through their play. Here Stott explores the complex and systematic organization of works of ludic participation, showing how these correlate with social systems of communication, exhibition, and governance. At a time when the advocacy of play and participation has become widespread in our culture, he addresses the shortage of literature on the use of play and games in modern and contemporary arts practice in order to begin a play theory of organization and governance.
