Misawa Atsuhiko - Paintings Of AnimalsSeigensha Art Publishing 2013 ISBN 9784861524028 Acqn 23037Pb 15x21cm 208pp 225ills 200col 26
Using paint, watercolour, crayon and pencil, Misawa Atsuhiko depicts scores of animals inchildlike, honest renderings. From cats and dogs to a variety of more exotic beasts (unicornsincluded), the figures are set against neutral backgrounds, often seemingly drawn on scraps ofwhatever happens to be lying around at the time, from pieces of cardboard to letter envelopesand weary scraps of paper. Squirrels, owls, lizards, zebras, leopards, bears and an entire
menagerie of happy animals come alive with bold colours, sharp lines, chaotic scribbles andexpressive swathes of thick paint.

Katja Mater - Multiple DensitiesROMA Publications 2013 ISBN 9789491843075 Acqn 23188
Hb 23x30cm 180pp 225ills 75col 37Visual artist and photographer Katja Mater constructs an image by layering multiple moments intime. When making a drawing or object, different exposures are made on the same negative atvarious points in the process, physically building up an image in a cross-exchange of visualinformation between the subject, whether painted on paper or constructed object, and the film.This results in abstracted, monochromatic works depicting geometrical and vaguely texturedforms. This book features several series of Maters works, also explaining in detail the workingmethod behind each image, illuminating the complex processes she employs to achieve a finalresult.

Thomson & Craighead - Flat EarthDundee Contemporary Arts 2013 ISBN 9783981627428 Acqn 23218Pb 22x30cm 88pp 64ills 50col 25
Much of Thomson & Craigheads recent work looks at how communications networks like theworldwide web are changing the way we relate to the world around us - the conflict between our
private and public identities, the tension between the global and the local and the way in whichmodern communications inform our sense of place and self in the world. The exhibition includesnew two new works: The First Person (2013), an endless stream of first person statements takenfrom American self-help websites, randomly intercut with found video footage of a burning house;and Dundee Wall (2014) a poetic snapshot of social networking traffic from within this city,published as typeset posters and pasted up within DCA. This catalogue accompanies the 2014exhibition at DCA and includes texts by Axel Laap, Sarah Cook, Clive Gillman and SteveRushton.

First major monograph displaying different perspectives on Andrade Tudela's artistic practice,juxtaposing positions and readings from Europe and Latin America, with many reproductions ofpreviously unseen works. Armando Andrade Tudela works with a wide range of media in order toexplore the intersecting interfaces between popular culture, politics and fine art. While frequentlyusing the South American cultural and historical context as his starting point, Andrade Tudela infact focuses on complex systems of translation and transference; how are aesthetic ideas
assimilated and reactivated politically, or socially, at a local level? And more broadly speaking,how are ideas themselves embedded within the fabric of geography and physical topography?

Stephan Balkenol - Petit Nu. Lecture By Erik VerhagenFonds Regional d'Art Contemporain 2013 ISBN 9782910595180 Acqn 23252Pb 14x18cm 48pp 4ills 10
The transcription of a lecture by Erik Verhagen on Stephan Balkenhol's Petit nu(1993).Stephan Balkenhol makes serial objects. While questioning the history of sculpture, he maintainsa close relationship with the material and plays on shifts in scale.The figure of the Petit nu(Little Nude) appears to be an outgrowth from a block or base. Thewoman perched atop this large parallelepiped appears as a small, precious object. Carveddirectly into the body of the wood, she shows some polychrome traces, reminiscent of medieval
statuary or expressionist sculpture. The overall rough-hewn effect reflects the desire to leavevisible traces of the process of work and chisel marks. The lack of gesture or expressiveness inStephan Balkenhol's figures is not synonymous with an inability to communicate. For the artist,who is also interested in Egyptian statuary, an impassive face provides a foil to the figure'spersonality, accentuating it all the more.Erik Verhagen is a lecturer in contemporary art history at the University of Valenciennes. He haspublished numerous essays and articles on art from the 1960s to the present and is a regularcontributor to specialist periodicals includingArt Press, Critique d'Artand Les Cahiers du MuseNational d'Art Moderne. In 2010 he was curator of the Jan Dibbets exhibition at the Muse d'ArtModerne de la Ville de Paris. He co-authored the Stephan Balkenhol catalogue, published in2010 on the occasion of the artist's first major solo exhibition in France, which ran until January23, 2011 at the Muse de Grenoble.

Jean Dupuy WhereLoevenbruck 2013 ISBN 9782916636061 Acqn 23253Pb 18x26cm 416pp 160col ills 51
The oeuvre of Jean Dupuy combines art and technology within the fields of conceptual,performance, installation, video and other forms of art. Perhaps lesser known is his fondness foranagrams, which this volume elucidates in full through hundreds of examples. Often paired withone of his own works, the clever rearrangements of small texts serve as anecdotes, memories,simple humour, or descriptions of the work itself, narrating its creative process or essentialaspects. As Emmanuelle Lequeux claims in her essay, Dupuy is an alchemist of words, andviews his own colourful writings as a form of equilibrium, a closed world within which subtle witand meaning can be born.

Over the past two decades, Ellen Gallagher (born 1965) has created a body of work exploringnotions of materiality, history and language. In her early paintings, Gallagher dispersed fields ofrepeated bulging lips and eyes--borrowed from the imagery of minstrel performances--on gridlikebackgrounds of penmanship paper. She continued to incorporate historical material insubsequent works, most famously using midcentury advertisements for African-American beauty
products from Ebonymagazine and other publications of the period, abstracting portraits ofmodels with yellow Plasticine, oil paint, pencil marks and incisions. For the first major New Yorkmuseum exhibition of her work at New Museum, Gallagher produced a series of new paintingsthat both extend her formal and thematic interests and mark a radical new development. Each ofthe pieces consists of tendril-like formations incised into layers of paint. This complex series isfeatured in this catalogue along with a booklet of her work from 19932009.

Hutchins practice is a hybrid thing, one that restlessly evolves and engages with a multiplicity offormal vocabularies, from the absurd to the profound; the personal to the universal, in apermanent state of irony. The work is primarily made out of the stuff in the room, everydayhousehold items: clothing, furniture, photographs, which bear the marks of time on their wornsurfaces and are altered further by Hutchins interventions. Jessica Jackson Hutchins was born inChicago in 1971 and gained her MFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1999.She had her first solo exhibition in Europe at Timothy Taylor Gallery, London in October 2010,following her critically acclaimed inclusion in the 2010 Whitney Biennial. In 2011 she was includedin the 11th Lyon Biennale and had solo exhibitions at the ICA Boston and the AtlantaContemporary Art Center. In 2013 she had a solo exhibition at The Hepworth Wakefield, UK andCentre PasquArt in Biel, Switzerland, and participated in The Encyclopedic Palaceexhibition atthe 55th Venice Biennale.

700 Artists' Processes - Maxime ChansonEditions Jannink 2013 ISBN 9782916067889 Acqn 22830Hb 24x33cm 80pp 31
An innovative typology that provides an overview of contemporary creation, mapping as diagramsthe practices of nearly 700 artists of the last 30 years.700 Artists' Processes, a suitable tool for all artists and actors in the art world, is also an artists'book that follows in the wake of the topographical charts favoured by George Maciunas andconceptual artists such as Dan Graham or Hanne Darboven.Since the late 1980s, art cannot be thought of in terms of artistic movements. The innovative
typology proposed by 700 Artists' Processes provides an overview of contemporary art from1987 to 2011. This book presents a synthesis, in tabular form, of the artistic processes ofapproximately 700 international artists ranging from Adel Abdessemed to Heimo Zobernig. Thecore area of investigation here is the artistic process'. This is defined as the combined actionbetween a Motor(what drives an artist to create) and a Means(the modus operandi the artistemploys). The model developed in this book offers a general map of the concerns driving themost prominent contemporary artists and the processes through which these concerns translateinto works of art. The reader will then be able to use this basis to further investigate what makesan artistic process original.

Manifesto Architecture: The Ghost of Mies - Beatriz Colomina, Critical Spatial Practice 3Sternberg Press 2014 ISBN 9783956790003 Acqn 23263Pb 11x15cm 110pp 109ills 39col 12.50
Edited by Nikolaus Hirsch, Markus MiessenFeaturing artwork by Dan Graham
The history of the avant-garde (in art, architecture, literature) cant be separated from the historyof its engagement with mass media. It is not just that the avant-garde used media to publicize itswork; the work did not exist before its publication.In architecture, Adolf Loos, Le Corbusier, and Mies van der Rohe came to be known through theirinfluential writings and manifestos published in newspapers, journals, and little magazines. Entiregroups, from Dada and Surrealism to De Stijl, became an effect of their manifestos. The
manifesto was the site of self-invention, innovation, and debate. Even buildings themselves couldbe manifestos. The most extreme and radical designs in the history of modern architecture wererealized as pavilions in temporary exhibition.In the third book in the Critical Spatial Practice series, Beatriz Colomina traces the history of themodern architecture manifesto, with particular focus on Mies van der Rohe, and the play betweenthe written and built work. This essay propels the manifesto form into the future, into an agewhere electronic media are the primary sites of debate, suggesting that new forms of manifestoare surely emerging along with new kinds of authorship, statement, exhibition, and debate.

Texts by Steven Connor, Dieter Roelstraete, and Monika Szewczyk
Testing the intimate intersection of audience, object, and event, Nina Canells work has beendescribed by curator Fionn Meade as tethered to fragmented and often partially withheldnarratives [and] comprised of choreographed indirection and relay. Published in relation to theexhibition Stray Warmings at Midway Contemporary Art in Minneapolis, this new monographbrings together writing and reproductions that extend beyond this particular context. The bookdocuments the broader framework that has defined the artists practice during the past years,considering how intuition, corners, and a stratification of the transparent have formed Canells
understanding of sculpture and its dissolution.The text contributions are comprised of a conversation between Dieter Roelstraete and MonikaSzewczyk on the topic of communication, followed by an essay by Steven Connor on theconsistency of words, imagination, and thought itself.

Martin Herbert - The Uncertainty PrincipleSternberg Press 2014 ISBN 9783956790010 Acqn 23269Pb 13x21cm 184pp 38ills 15
Within the realm of science, the uncertainty principle speaks of the fundamental limits ofknowledge and measurement vis--vis the external world, and how the very act of seeing alterswhat is seen. Martin Herberts The Uncertainty Principleis a collection of essays that revealslayers of unknowing and open-endedness within a diversity of contemporary art practices sincethe 1970s. If a work of art is always completed by the viewer, as Marcel Duchamp put it, then the
works considered here equate completion with construction. In navigating us through asuccession of artists approaches, Herbert also discloses how constructed experiences of notknowing can lead to deep engagements with a range of specific issues and themes: from historyto politics, from epistemology to mortality.
Martin Herbert is associate editor ofArtReviewand a regular contributor toArtforum, frieze, andArt Monthly.

Essays by Anke te Heesen, Kirsten Maar, Markus Miessen, Ursula Panhans-Bhler, JanVerwoert, Choy Lee Weng; interviews with Steve Claydon, Yael Davids, Martin Germann,Channa Horwitz, Carl Michael von Hausswolff, Karl Holmqvist, Daniel Knorr, Jaroslaw Kozlowski,
Dra Maurer, Brian ODoherty, Karin Sander, Hans Schabus
This publication explores themes of the exhibition through its termsnot, however, to confine intoisolated conceptual categories, but to interconnect. These terms characterize exhibiting, andemphasize a between-ness. Examining a term lays bare its ruptures, shifts, or recreations, aswell as social, societal, and cultural changes that have the power to structure through historicalconjecture.Terms of Exhibiting (from A to Z) brings together almost fifty contributions in the form of essays,interviews/conversations between artists, writers, and curators, and a glossary containing thirty-one terms on curating and exhibiting relevant today. The six essays investigate key terms raisedby the three-part exhibition series Terms of Exhibiting, Producing, and Performing at KunsthausDresden in 2012. Jan Verwoert reflects on the division of labor in artistic production, while Ankete Heesen presents a survey of the museum, collection, and exhibition. Markus Miessen
discusses the advantages of curating institutions and inventing structures rather than merelyimplementing or appropriating them. The book also includes essays by Kirsten Maar, UrsulaPanhans-Bhler, and Lee Weng-Choy. Each of the twelve conversations with various artistsplaces one term under scrutiny within the context of their own artistic interests and practiceswith reference to the termpresence, Daniel Knorr explains the significance of materialization forhis own creative process, while Brian ODoherty discusses inventionin relation to his practice.Each term generates further insight and reflection into each individual art practice.

Jana Mller's So jung, so schn, so kriminellprovides an overview of her most recent series ofworks and of her ideas that form their mental backdrop. Her spatial installations function likeinventories of mysterious events in a continuous play between reality and fiction. The formal set-up is reminiscent of crime scene forensics, stage-like scenes and cinematic aesthetics. At thecentre of So jung, so schn, so kriminellare Mller's floor sculptures, consisting of differentlysized, heavy sheets of glass, between which clothes and accessories are pressed and preserved,evoking phantastic paintings and microscopic slides. "The resulting stories are perhaps about the
realms of the irrational, the suppressed and the disturbing about subjective and collective fears,memories and fantasies which persist in the out-of-field and resist visual portrayal." Text byKathrin Meyer.

Adrian Villar Rojas - Films Before RevolutionThe Green Box 2013 ISBN 9783941644632 Acqn 23145Pb 21x30cm 152pp 70col ills 24.95
Argentine artist Adrin Villar Rojas is already widely known because of his site-specificinstallations: as a participant at dOCUMENTA (13), the 2011 Istanbul Biennale, the 2011 VeniceBiennale, for instance, as well as in solo presentations, such as the one at the Serpentine SecklerGallery in London and at MoMA PS1 in New York, among others, he has impressed with hisworks. Wherever Villar Rojas has an exhibition, he sets up a studio together with his team. Duringproduction of the exhibition, the camera is an important companion, with which he continuallyrecords various work situations. Some of the resulting photos are selected, and one of his
colleagues then paints and draws over them. With Films Before Revolutionat Museum HausKonstruktiv, the focus, for the first time, is on Adrin Villar Rojas's multi-layered working method.The painted-over photographs are at the beginning and end of artistic processes, within whichthey contribute to the formulation of coming works. In a setting specially developed for MuseumHaus Konstruktiv, comprising furniture that has been deconstructed and (re-)constructed withadditional elements, such as church-glass windows and neon tubes, the watercolours andreworked photographs are presented in an installational manner for the first time. They form thenucleus of an exhibition that refers to the previous ephemeral clay sculptures and the large-format sculptural installations from previous exhibitions, which without the respective precedingwork processes, and without the painted-over photographs, would not have been conceivable.The exhibition's accompanying publication records the intertwining of the various processes andinserts itself, as an autonomous artistic component, into a circular framework of working activity,artwork production, productive moments of chance, and arranged settings. For Villar Rojas, one
important constant within this framework is the permanent reflection on his own artistic activity,and on how it affects his team of colleagues and the art scene.

Over a period of eighteen months, a selected group of international artists and writers focusedtheir attention on Tegel airport, they observed how it is used, they engaged in new activities andimagined how the building might function in the future. This book and DVD is the outcome of what
might be described as an open-ended enquiry and, as such, embodies new perspectives andapproaches to the problem of urban renewal, regeneration, social organisation, mobility and thelegacy of modernist architecture. This approach to site is central to imagining how art practice canslow down, re-orientate and redefine the successive cycle of masterplans and regenerationschemes so that we can begin to consider what is at stake in the spaces that we occupy.Including artists and writers: Peter Adey, Sean Ashton, Michelle Atherton, Diane Bauer, AmandaBeech, Federica Bueti, Maja Ciric, Jamie Crewe, Nick Crowe & Ian Rawlinson, Bryan Eccleshall,Elke Falat, Stella Flatten, Hondartza Fraga, Rachel Garfield, Margarita Gluzberg, Julian Gough,Robert Gschwantner, Giorgio Cappozzo, Jane Harris, Gill Hobson, Janet Hodgson, Dale Holmes,Kerstin Honeit, Ben Hope, Stephan Hsch, Jaspar Joseph-Lester, Karl Heinz Jeron, RenataKaminska, Natasja Keller, Sharon Kivland, Jon Klein, Liane Lang, Jeff Luckey, TC McCormack,

The preferred medium of Manon Bellet is paper that she uses in both her installations and herslow-paced video works. Through the artists almost invisible geste, delicate, transparent and lightsensitive papers are transformed with the help of light, heat and time. Bellet reminds us of theephemeral nature of all things passing and the trace of memory they leave behind, like a shadowof a point in time. This book accompanies the first institutional solo shows of Manon Bellet atKunstmuseum Solothurn and Muse Jenisch, Vevey. With texts by Patricia Bieder, Julie EnckellJulliard and Stphanie Serra, as well as a conversation between Mathieu Copeland and the artist.
