Book excerpt: Last season we published Horn's Dictionary of Water, a universal lexicon, now we offer This Is Me, This Is You Horn's handbook of identity. Here in this uniquely bound twinned volume we have a book with no end. Peruse the 48 images taken with a 'point and shoot' camera, and as you arrive at the last image, you turn the book over and begin again: now with a paired complement for each of the 48 images, taken only a few seconds later. This work, a single and singular portrait photographed over a two year period evokes a multitude-- of identities, of images, of icons from Bette Davis to Marlon Brando. Ultimately it is the multitude in each of us.

Download or read book Island Zombie written by Roni Horn and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Roni Horn (b. 1955) is a prominent contemporary artist known for her sculptures, photography, and installations inspired by landscape and the natural world, and especially the isolated landscapes of Iceland, where she has travelled and lived for substantial periods of time since the early 1970s. Horn's work explores geology and climate; the interplay of nature, art, and place; and the relationships between words, appearance, androgyny, and the self. Horn is author of more than twenty books and artist's books, and is herself the subject of more than thirty books and exhibition catalogs, including a survey published by Phaidon and many by Steidl. Examples of her work include You Are the Weather (1994-96), a series of photographs of a young woman bathing in Icelandic hot springs; Pair Objects (1988), identical metal sculptures placed in two different locations; and the installation Library of Water (2007) in Iceland, with columns that enclose water from melting glaciers. Horn is arguably the most important visual chronicler of the landscape of Iceland. Upon graduating from her MFA program at Yale, she traveled to Iceland, journeying across its interior on a motorcycle. Over thirty years, she has continually returned to Iceland to explore and record the astonishing beauty of its geology, climate, and culture. This book will contain a range of texts, from evocative vignettes to illustrated essays written for Iceland's most widely-read newspaper. A combination of artists' writings and travelogue, the texts reveal Iceland as one of Horne's most important influences and inspirations, and record a unique and beautiful environment undergoing climate change"--

Download or read book Her Her Her Her written by Roni Horn and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of 120 black-and-white photographs, Roni Horn takes us on a journey through a locker room in Reykjavik, Iceland. With minimal movement between the camera and subject in succeeding frames, and through the use of a slow-shutter technique, this finely crafted body of work provokes the viewer to contemplate the subtleties of each image. A blur behind a portal suggests that someone else is in the locker room with the viewer. Room numbers, open and closed doors, and intersecting hallways give clues to the surroundings, and as we turn each page of the book, we sense the subtle shifting of time and space in photographs that reflect a sculptor's attention to the details of surfaces, repetition and form.
Download or read book Roni Horn Give Me Paradox Or Give Me Death written by Roni Horn and published by Steidl. This book was released on 2024-04-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working across sculpture, photography, drawing and artist's books, Roni Horn addresses identity, mutability and unease. The title of this book, which accompanies the artist's exhibition of the same name at the Museum Ludwig, Cologne, is borrowed from Patrick Henry, a prominent representative of the American independence movement in the eighteenth century who ended a speech with the famous words: "Give me liberty, or give me death!" By replacing liberty with paradox, Horn nods to her interest in the reconciliation of two contradictory answers, an important aspect in her work, which also relates to her use of doubling or pairs. A seminal example of this is This is Me, This is You (1997-2000), photographs of the artist's niece taken over a two-year period during her adolescence and presented on two opposite walls, or a.k.a. (2008-09), which captures the artist at different moments throughout her life. The catalogue presents the more than 100 works in the exhibition, including drawings from the late 1970s that have never been shown before, as well as a selection of pigment drawings made between 1983 and 2018.

Download or read book Roni Horn written by Ingvild Goetz and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the holdings of the Goetz Collection in Munich, and accompanying a 2013 exhibition there, this volume offers a concise Roni Horn overview. It includes Horn's best-known series, such as You Are the Weather, To Place, a.k.a., Some Thames and Cloud and Clown. Throughout these sequences, Horn's abiding motifs recur: water, weather, her adoptive home of Iceland, and more formal qualities such as repetition and permutation. The book shows how Horn's major works can be experienced in ever-new constellations, arrangements and contrasts within the exhibition context. Also included here is a collection of key writings by Horn--"Making Being Here Enough," "I Can't See the Arctic Circle from Here," "My Oz," "Island Frieze," "When Dickinson Shut Her Eyes" and "Simple and Complete"--plus an interview with the artist conducted by James Lingwood.
Download or read book Vatnasafn Library of Water written by Roni Horn and published by Steidl. This book was released on 2009 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sited in a converted library building on a promontory overlooking the ocean in the town of Stykkish�lmur on the west coast of Iceland, VATNASAFN / LIBRARY OF WATER incorporates many of Roni Horn's abiding artistic concerns with water and weather, reflection and illumination, and the fluid nature of identity. Twenty-four glass columns containing water from glaciers around Iceland refract and reflect the day into a rubber floor embedded with words used to describe weather, inside or out. VATNASAFN / LIBRARY OF WATER also offers a space for community gatherings, a studio for writers, and it houses an oral archive of weather reports gathered from people who live in and around Stykkish�lmur. This book surveys the interconnecting elements of Roni Horn's long-term project on the island through a series of image sequences and texts. It also includes a selection of writings by the artist inspired by her experience of being in Iceland.
Download or read book Roni Horn Remembered Words written by and published by Steidl. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remembered Words is the title of a series of watercolor paintings that Roni Horn (born 1955) created in 2013 and 2014. An important part of Horn's work revolves around language. In this new series she pairs "remembered words" with dots, adding the words to the dots like footnotes or captions, creating a kind of personal, even autobiographical dictionary. The combination of the dots--which are sometimes properly arranged in color-coordinated rows, or in other drawings distributed in a random and overlapping manner, wild and out of control--with the words creates unexpected relations and meanings, long strings of associations, absurd and beautiful simultaneously.
Download or read book Roni Horn LOG Special Edition written by Roni Horn and published by Steidl. This book was released on 2023-03-23 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LOG (March 22, 2019-May 17, 2020), produced daily over a period of fourteen months, is a collection of drawings, quotations, collages, photographs, casual commentaries, notes on news and weather events, and original texts by Roni Horn. Known for conceptually oriented work in diverse media, Horn continues her exploration of identity and difference in LOG. The collection, with its 406 drawings, ranges from the humorous and strange to the sublime and disturbed. Lodged in this context is the complexity of daily, lived experience. The dates LOG records encompass the mundane scroll of life, the global pandemic's early days, a political system in breakdown, local bird and animal life, and radical changes in weather. It also includes more formal texts and drawings, some becoming leitmotifs threaded throughout the work. LOG transforms personal experience into an emotionally profound and unusual visual engagement. First exhibited in New York City in early 2021, this is a beguiling and immersive body of work that invites repeated viewing. Special edition of 200 copies including an offset litho signed and numbered by the artist
