'The execution of Emperor Maximilian of Mexico, in 1867, was the subject of a quartet of paintings by the French Impressionist and early Modernist Edouard Manet These works are rarely shown together, and in fact cannot be seen in their entirety, since one of them exists only in fragments, but the three intact paintings and the surviving elements огигм of the fourth are reproduced in this publication, and will be shown at The Museum of Modern Art's exhibition in the fall of 2006 Maximilian's death was an event of great public interest in France, in part because French policies shared the responsibility for it A European aristocrat of the Hapsburg family, Maximilian had been installed in 1864 after a trio of European powers, led by Napoleon III of France, mounted an invasion of Mexico to reclaim debts upon which the Mexican government had suspended payment But Napoleon soon withdrew, abandoning Maximilian to his fate at the hands of a resurgent Mexican army As news! of the execution reached Paris, Manet reacted with a group of works synthesizing the information as it came to him and drawing heavily on an earlier painting inspired by violent political events, Goya's The Third of May In addition to analyzing and documenting the creation of these works, John Elderfield, in his text, clarifies their historical importance in the context of modern art, and in so doing, offers a capsular history of the place of current events in art.  2006 г Мягкая обложка, 200 стр ISBN 0870704230.

Over the past 15 years Tacita Dean has created a body of work in film, photography and drawing that's impressive in its idiosyncratic handling of those media and striking in its contrary beauty In combination with the drawings collected here, and with photographs and stories, her slow-moving projections--which border on the meditative--present огигп a panorama in which fleeting moments come to a standstill Her meticulous framing and awareness of the flow of filmic time evoke eerily specific atmospheres, and her films provide the creative impulse for remarkable work in other media Analogue, the first methodical study and graphic presentation of her drawings, gathers not just those on paper but also on blackboards and alabaster and in photographs, and considers them in light of her roots as a painter Dean discusses them, and their connections to her film work, in an interview.  2006 г Мягкая обложка, 152 стр ISBN 3865212891.

In a powerful new body of photographs, sculpture and installation, John Waters continues his investigations of film history and contemporary politics Primarily known as the filmmaker behind such cult classics as Pink Flamingos, Polyester and Pecker, Waters has been making "fine" art since the early 1990s In it, he tackles both cinematic огигч themes and political events by building narratives, frame by frame, from early commercial films In this publication, Waters shares the method by which he constructs each work as if he were making a personal guidebook, so that his snapshots, color photographs and handwritten notes indicating composition are re-created as if in their original plastic organizational sleeves Neither the art world, celebrity miscreants, politicians or Waters himself are spared in these incisive new works An essay by Brenda Richardson examines Waters's history, as well as each work, in brief and brilliant detail.  2006 г Мягкая обложка, 96 стр ISBN 0977950301.

Although Peter Hutchinson has been working with land art since the 1960s, he has yet to receive his proper due His work isn't found in galleries and he doesn’t practice the kind of sensationalism that is typical of the art world He is a refreshingly modest artist, and his delicate, fleeting work is extraordinarily beautiful, remarkably intelligent, огигъ and endlessly charming It is our hope that Thrown Rope will place Hutchinson where he belongs: in the canon of modern art alongside Andy Goldsworthy and Robert Smithson Hutchinson's works are ephemeral and evanescent, produced out in the open, where they are subject to the whims of nature Much of it is the product of his "thrown rope" method—literally throwing ropes over an expanse of land, then placing lime or planting flowers along the lines deter-mined by the ropes The result is a snakelike garden or swerving lines of bleached land Hutchinson has even thrown ropes underwater, planting flowers at the bottom of a lake or stringing oranges or onions beneath the water's surface Such projects are just a slice of Hutchinson's many conceptual pieces The photographs within Thrown Rope are all that exists to document Hutchinson's career Reproduced here along with Hutchinson's own hand-written notes, they provide an inspirational look at one of the most underappreciated artists of our time.  2005 г Твердый переплет, 144 стр ISBN 1568985614.

Ed RuschaA­s relationship to photography is complex and ambivalent The world-class painter--and author of a 1972 New York Times article called A¬'I'm Not Really a Photographer'A¬--has been known to refer to his work in this second medium as a A¬hobby,A® despite considerable, persistent critical interest Whether he likes it or not, the огидл small albums of plainly-shot, snapshot-sized images he produced in the 1960s and 70s, including Twenty-Six Gasoline Stations, intrigued his contemporaries and earned him an unshakable reputation How? His subject matter was neither purely documentary nor solely artistic, in fact it was stereotypical and banal, with motifs drawn from the car-dominated western landscape That rebellious material, along with his serial presentation, made for a mythical road-movie or photo-novel effect with Beat Generation overtones The combination attracted artists and critics both, especially while serial logic was prominent in Pop art and Minimalism, and then retained that interest later as serial work became prominent in Conceptual art Critics have remained attentive for decades, and RuschaA­s influence remains apparent in new work in Europe and North America Ed Ruscha, Photographer departs from earlier collections to explore how these images--and all of RuschaA­s work in disciplines including painting, drawing, printmaking and photography--are guided and shaped by a single vision.  2006 г Твердый переплет, 183 стр ISBN 3865212069.

George Quasha’s extraordinary sculptures unite natural stones in a state of breathtakingly improbable balance The stones are not altered physically or bonded in any way; rather, Quasha discovers an unknown axis that brings them into radical alignment The stones “learn” this state of levity in contrast to their ordinary state of gravity, огиго resulting in a new art form that feels alive with its own individual energy and personality Here, 37 axial stones are displayed in dazzling full-page color photos The accompanying text explains not only how the stones were found and eventually came together, but explores the aesthetic, philosophical, spiritual, and practical implications of an art of danger and impermanence “Action pages” document the process — the repeated setting up, balancing, losing balance, and falling — until the full axial stone is born: a whole being greater and more real than the sum of its parts.  2006 г Мягкая обложка, 160 стр ISBN 1556435754.

An object maker, musician, poet, and performer, Willie Cole is an artist with remarkably diverse art-making skills and a formidable imagination Best known for his assemblage, mixed media sculptural works, and prints, Cole liberates and aggrandizes everyday artifacts, including irons, ironing boards, hairdryers, high-heeled shoes, lawn огигш jockeys, bicycle parts, and other discarded domestic appliances and hardware and transforms them into powerful and iconic art works The time-textured objects that he works with are seen by most as banal and expendable, but in Cole's hands they are given new vitality and metaphorical meaning Frequently, he takes his found American consumer objects and Africanizes or ritualizes them, creating potent global artistic hybrids His works also track his distinctive, Newark, New Jersey-based heritage, movingly melding the social, political, and cultural perspectives of urban African American experience Although wit and humor are often evident in his methods, Cole's readaptions of African tribal art motifs and forms are based more in respectful appreciation than appropriation and careful study rather than simple imitation His works address a range of serious topics including race relations, capitalist materialism, religious belief systems, and human pathos Surveying the wide range of Cole's methods, media, and themes from the late 1980s to the present, this catalog includes thirty stunning color illustrations of his most significant sculptures, paintings, works on paper, and prints An extensive interview with Cole by Dr Leslie King-Hammond, Dean of the Maryland Institute of Art, as well as a commentary by Dr Lowery Stokes Sims, President of the Studio Museum in Harlem, about Cole's pivotal residency there place this unique artist's work in the context of African American and contemporary art The catalogue also includes biographical information in the form of two chronologies, one of which is a personal resumA© by the artist, as well as exhibition histories, bibliographies, and a listing of public collections of his work.  2006 г Мягкая обложка, 117 стр ISBN 0813538637.

In 1968 artist Jennifer Bartlett (b 1941) began painting in what would become her celebrated and trademark style––colored dots on gridded steel plates and canvas Focusing on the single and multi-plate pieces that began in 1968 and culminated in 1976 when Bartlett sprang onto the art scene with her pivotal Rhapsody painting (The Museum of Modern огигэ Art, New York), this important book analyzes for the first time the significant role these formative and long-overlooked works played in her artistic development Analytical and lyrical, Bartlett’s early plate work reflects her transformation of the prevailing Minimalist aesthetic into something distinctly her own With beautiful color illustrations of this body of work––many of which have never before been published or exhibited––the book charts Bartlett’s fascinating progression from mathematically precise dot paintings to rigorously structured patterned pieces to more freehand and expressive painterly pieces In the process, the importance of these works to the artist's career and to the history of contemporary art is discovered.  2006 г Твердый переплет, 123 стр ISBN 030011771X.

While this expanded and revised edition of Jalal Toufics second book, (Vampires), is at one level an uneasy essay on the undead in film (the subtitle of the book), it is actually much more than that Drawing on various altered states of consciousness he underwent, films and novels on the undead, psychiatric case studies and mystical reports, the огиит author tackles many of the certainly dubious but also dubiously certain characteristics of the undeath state, for example: over-turns that undo the deads turn to answer an interpellation; doubles; frequent unworldly freezings still, ones that reveal the occasional worldly immobilization of the living as merely motion-less-ness, i e a variety of movement; the implicit indefinite fall of/in the cadaver; the turning of the metaphorical into the literal; and an unreality that sometimes behaves in a filmic manner (e g , the lapses in hypnosis, schizophrenia, and undeath permit editing in reality), inducing the undead to wonder: "Am I in a film?" While the authors first book, Distracted, was written for the living, (Vampires) was written about and for those who are "mortals to death" (the title of a special issue the author edited for the journal Discourse) It thus belongssomewhat edgily as the author qualifies the validity of guidebooks for the deadon the same shelf as the Bardo Thödol and the Egyptian Book of the Dead Автор Jalal Toufic.  Издательство: Post Apollo Press, 2003 г Мягкая обложка, 384 стр ISBN 094299650X.
