Collectively, there is much humour and existential pathos and protest at stake.They are not just colleagues but also personal friends. In the past, they have co-produced artistic projects by pairs, but never have all three come together to create a common project.

Download or read book Oliver Mark written by Oliver Mark and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art icon Jeff Koons lying on a giant plastic ball, Richard Serra disappearing into one of his vast steel sculptures, "king of theater" Claus Peymann sporting a cardboard crown... ever since shooting his portrait of painter A.R. Penck in 1994, Oliver Mark (born 1963) has photographed countless artists, actors, politicians and other celebrities. Sometimes concentrating only on the subject against the most minimal setting possible, sometimes placing them in front of an artful background, Mark presents the rich and famous in constantly new and consistently trenchant ways, bringing their less apparent characteristics to light and casting them in disorienting circumstances. Other of Mark's subjects included here are Tom Hanks, Anthony Hopkins, George Lucas, Sir Ridley Scott, Jenny Holzer, Mia Farrow, Norbert Tadeusz, Kenny Scharf, Georg Baselitz, David Chipperfield, Luc Tuymans, Cate Blanchett, Balthus and Sir Peter Ustinov. Besides Mark's most successful portraits, this volume also contains some of his most beautiful fashion photographs and other stills, many of which have appeared in several well-known magazines. Texts by Margit J. Mayer, Christoph Amend, Christian Boros and others round off this entertaining "best-of" collection.

Download or read book Tal R written by Tal R and published by Dumont. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tal R has developed an artistic strategy of recycling the meaningless and the obvious, the leftovers and the left-behind of the art business. The Tel Aviv-born artist understands his works as Kolbojnik, as garbage cans are known in a kibbutz. In the process, Tal R changes his media from project to project: he makes collages, photographs, draws and sews only to return to his primary media, namely painting. He processes the joy in the recalcitrance of the material with a strict composition. Formed from underground elements - comics, graffiti, music - his naive, self-consciousness subject matters materialise in colourful and explosive objects with a geometrical inner life. Published on the occasion of the exhibition at Kunsthalle zu Kiel, April – June 2009; and Kunsthalle TÜbingen, June – October 2009. English and German text.
Download or read book Michael van Ofen written by Michael van Ofen and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of almost thirty years, the painterly oeuvre of Michael van Ofen (b. 1956) has staked out an exceptional position within contemporary art that is not without its inner contradictions. Although his selection of motifs might suggest otherwise, he does not believe he is a nostalgist; to the contrary, he is quite explicitly a contemporary artist precisely because questioning the contemporary is of central interest to him. Defying the many observers who have proclaimed the end of painting, van Ofen chooses to implement his conceptual engagement with the artistic representation of the historic in portraits, still lifes, flowers, interiors, and landscapes--subjects that tend to be rare in contemporary painting. To his mind, painting a picture also means a delicate approach to the process of painting as such. A unique interplay of brushwork, the placement of color, and a particular treatment of light keep his pictures poised in a fascinating suspense between figuration and abstraction.

Book excerpt: This volume compiles works in fashion, nudes and portraiture by the internationally esteemed Austrian photographer Elfie Semotan (born 1941). Throughout her career, Semotan has maintained a close dialogue with artists, approaching photography with a painterly eye. "I envy painters for their ability to create their reality," she says. "It has always fascinated me to try to translate this into photography, where you have to very deliberately aim at achieving these kinds of 'snapshots of utter perfection.'" This volume includes her New York street scenes, fashion shoots for Helmut Lang and various fashion magazines, the French Girl in New York series, her collaboration with Vanessa Beecroft and portraits of artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Martin Kippenberger, Jonathan Meese, Jack Whitten, Raymond Pettibon, Jason Rhoades, Joan Semmel and Christopher Wool.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Magnificent' Robert Macfarlane Winner of the Stanford Dolman Travel Book of the Year Our lives depend on shipping but it is a world which is largely hidden from us. In every lonely corner of every sea, through every night, every day, and every imaginable weather, tiny crews of seafarers work the giant ships which keep landed life afloat. These ordinary men live extraordinary lives, subject to dangers and difficulties we can only imagine, from hurricanes and pirates to years of confinement in hazardous, if not hellish, environments. Horatio Clare joins two container ships on their epic voyages across the globe and experiences unforgettable journeys. As the ships cross seas of history and incident, seafarers unfold the stories of their lives, and a beautiful and terrifying portrait of the oceans and their human subjects emerges. 'Tremendous' The Times

Download or read book Playful Disruption of Digital Media written by Daniel Cermak-Sassenrath and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-07 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book starts with the proposition that digital media invite play and indeed need to be played by their everyday users. Play is probably one of the most visible and powerful ways to appropriate the digital world. The diverse, emerging practices of digital media appear to be essentially playful: Users are involved and active, produce form and content, spread, exchange and consume it, take risks, are conscious of their own goals and the possibilities of achieving them, are skilled and know how to acquire more skills. They share a perspective of can-do, a curiosity of what happens next? Play can be observed in social, economic, political, artistic, educational and criminal contexts and endeavours. It is employed as a (counter) strategy, for tacit or open resistance, as a method and productive practice, and something people do for fun. The book aims to define a particular contemporary attitude, a playful approach to media. It identifies some common ground and key principles in this novel terrain. Instead of looking at play and how it branches into different disciplines like business and education, the phenomenon of play in digital media is approached unconstrained by disciplinary boundaries. The contributions in this book provide a glimpse of a playful technological revolution that is a joyful celebration of possibilities that new media afford. This book is not a practical guide on how to hack a system or to pirate music, but provides critical insights into the unintended, artistic, fun, subversive, and sometimes dodgy applications of digital media. Contributions from Chris Crawford, Mathias Fuchs, Rilla Khaled, Sybille Lammes, Eva and Franco Mattes, Florian 'Floyd' Mueller, Michael Nitsche, Julian Oliver, and others cover and address topics such as reflective game design, identity and people's engagement in online media, conflicts and challenging opportunities for play, playing with cartographical interfaces, player-emergent production practices, the re-purposing of data, game creation as an educational approach, the ludification of society, the creation of meaning within and without play, the internalisation and subversion of roles through play, and the boundaries of play.
