Download or read book Judy Chicago written by Alex Gartenfeld and published by Prestel. This book was released on 2018 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Groundbreaking and provocative, Judy Chicago's iconic sculptures, paintings, and installations helped bridge the gap between feminism and art during the 1960s, 70s, and beyond. Using imagery inspired by the female body and references to historical female figures, Chicago forged a new, women-focused visual language that continues to influence the aesthetics of feminist art today. This book traces Chicago's career from her emergence on the Los Angeles art scene in the 1960s through her mature work in the 1990s. Featuring illustrations of six distinct bodies of works, this book includes Chicago's masterpiece The Dinner Party as well as other lesser-known works. With informative essays that situate Chicago's oeuvre in the context of contemporary Southern Californian art and scholarship that reflects Chicago's current work, this comprehensive book provides a breathtaking look at one of the quintessential figures of American feminist art" --
Book Synopsis The Everywhere Studio by : Alex Gartenfeld
Download or read book The Everywhere Studio written by Alex Gartenfeld and published by Prestel. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Encompassing some 100 works in painting, sculpture, video, and installation, The Everywhere Studio brings together over 50 artists from the past five decades to reveal the artist’s studio as a charged site that has both predicted and responded to broader social and economic changes of our time. The Everywhere Studio interprets the works of post-war artists and emerging practitioners through the lens of the social and historical conditions in which they were made. Organized chronologically, the exhibition examines the changing relationships that artists have had to their sites of production. From the studio as a site of labor, to one that blurs production, performance, and spectacle, to a concept that defines the artist’s own identity, the exhibition features artists who, in response, to changing socio-economic influences, represented new modes of working and living that would subsequently spread across society."--Back cover.

Book excerpt: Miami is one of the most important centers for the arts since the beginning of the new millennium. The magic city draws collectors, talent artists and wealth from Europe, South and North America. The city has increasingly incorporated visual art as part of its image. Museums and private collections have grown considerably over the past 20 years led by private philanthropy.The Art-Sôlido magazine has been covering this cultural evolution for the last 10 years. Based on that, we have to put together a list with the most important and representative local artists. These are creators who work and exhibit in our city, those who have contributed to make art and culture part of the deep fabric of Miami: artists with different backgrounds that exemplify the diverse sensibilities and identities that make up the city's art scene.
Download or read book John Miller written by John Miller and published by Koenig Books. This book was released on 2016 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I Stand, I Fall, a comprehensive survey of work by John Miller, coincides with the first American museum exhibition dedicated to the influential conceptual artist. Through almost 150 images, this catalogue comprehensively traces Miller's use of the figure throughout his career in order to incisively comment on the status of art and life in American culture. The book features a range of media, including painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, installation and video; never-before-seen works from the 1980s; new large-scale sculptures; and the artist's most ambitious architectural installation to date - a vast and immersive mirrored labyrinth that went on view at the ICA Miami's Atrium Gallery. I Stand, I Fall, surveys Miller's use of the figure in order to examine themes of citizenship and politics, and the conventions of realism in contemporary art. Organized chronologically, the exhibition begins with his drawings and paintings from 1982-1983, the majority of which have never been presented publicly. Influenced by the pastoral genre of painting and American social realism of the 1920s and 30s, these deadpan, even grotesque, works explore issues of urban and suburban Americana, public space, and the human. Published retrospectively after the exhibition John Miller: I Stand, I Fall at Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, 18 February - 12 June 2016.
Book Synopsis Allan McCollum: Works Since 1969 by : Alex Gartenfeld
Download or read book Allan McCollum: Works Since 1969 written by Alex Gartenfeld and published by Delmonico Books. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early works, regional projects and acclaimed series from Allan McCollum, whose work often blurs boundaries between unique artifacts and mass production Since the late 1960s, the American artist Allan McCollum (born 1944) has created works that examine the art object's relationship to uniqueness, context and value, as well as to the museum that collects, values and preserves it. Allan McCollum: Works since 1969, which accompanies a major survey of the artist's work, brings together new scholarship, documentary material and in-depth information on McCollum's decades-long career, adding to the broader historical and theoretical interpretation of the artist's important practice. McCollum's celebrated works can be interpreted in infinite ways and have significant impact on the understanding of the role of art and material culture in society. Throughout his career the artist has explored various economies and contexts that structure collections and presentations of objects. Interested in how material artifacts become charged with meaning, McCollum understands these objects as vehicles of self-assurance and self-representation within communities. This book traces the artist's career through numerous illustrations, supplementary material and texts, focusing on three key components--early work, "regional projects" and the artist's most iconic series.

Book excerpt: This publication accompanies the first comprehensive museum survey of the American artist. Chakaia Booker: The Observance explores the artist's signature form--monumental works made of rubber--while showcasing her artistic innovations across mediums. With new photography of the wide-ranging exhibition at ICA Miami, historic images, and newly commissioned scholarship, the publication illuminates key themes in the artist's practice. With special attention to Booker's totemic and anthropomorphic assemblages fabricated from cast-off tires, the volume highlights Booker's ongoing expression of ecological and technological concerns, examinations of racial and economic disparities, and her interest in the symbolism of the automobile in American culture. Alongside essays by Erin Jenoa Gilbert, Aruna d'Souza, and Stephanie Seidel as well as an interview with the artist by Alex Gartenfeld, this catalog includes some of Booker's most topical works, including Chu Ching (2012), a cross on a wheelbarrow that resembles Jesus being dismounted from the cross. The artist's photographic series, "Foundling Warrior Quest" (2010) and "Graveyard Series" (1995), are featured to explore the importance of performance and mythology in her practice. Anchoring the book is The Observance (1995), an immersive installation made of deconstructed rubber tires and tubes--Booker's first large-scale installation in this signature material, chosen by the artist for its associations with riots.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tale of two Pop artists in 1960s New York This book charts the emergence of Marisol Escobar (1930-2016) and Andy Warhol (1928-87) in New York during the dawn of Pop art in the early 1960s. Through essays, interviews and prose, the book explores the artists' parallel rise to success, the formation of their artistic personas, their savvy navigation of gallery relationships and the blossoming of their early artistic practices from 1960 to 1968. The exhibition features key loans of Marisol's work from major global collections, along with iconic works and rarely seen films and archival materials from the Andy Warhol Museum's collection. By situating Marisol's work in dialogue with Warhol's, this new collection of writing seeks to reclaim the importance of her art; reframe the strength, originality and daring nature of her work; and reconsider her as one of the leading figures of the Pop era.

Download or read book Miami Graffiti written by James T. Murray and published by Prestel Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first book to focus solely on Miami's graffiti scene, two acclaimed photographers offer panoramic proof of the city's unique energy and aesthetic. If Miami isn't a city normally associated with graffiti, this vibrant and exquisitely photographed collection of works will make readers think again. Over two hundred images reflect Miami's hugely diverse culture with their eye-popping colors, Art Deco flourishes, depictions of palm trees, beaches, marine life, and local iconic figures. Here, a surprising and dangerous underside to the area is also captured. Extensive coverage of abandoned buildings nicknamed "Penits," de facto museums where entire crews practice their styles, and on-the-outs writers occasionally end up living, proves there is more to the city than South Beach's glitz and glam. Dozens of close-up shots reveal gorgeous, intricate detail, and in-process shots illustrate the technique of turning blank walls, buses, billboards, and other public canvases into stunning masterpieces. Quotes from the city's leading graffiti artists including Crome, Quake, and Siner lend further local perspective to this increasingly popular and universal urban art form. AUTHOR: JAMES and KARLA MURRAY are professional photographers and authors. Their books include Broken Windows, Burning New York and Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York. They live and work in Florida and New York, where their photos have been exhibited at the Brooklyn Historical Society and the New-York Historical Society ILLUSTRATIONS 200 colour

Book Synopsis Combined and Uneven Apocalypse by : Evan Calder Williams
Download or read book Combined and Uneven Apocalypse written by Evan Calder Williams and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04-16 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the repurposed rubble of salvagepunk to undead hordes banging on shopping mall doors, from empty waste zones to teeming plagued cities, Combined and Uneven Apocalypse grapples with the apocalyptic fantasies of our collapsing era. Moving through the films, political tendencies, and recurrent crises of late capitalism, Evan Calder Williams paints a black toned portrait of the dream and nightmare images of a global order gone very, very wrong. Situating itself in the defaulting financial markets of the present, Combined and Uneven Apocalypse glances back toward a messy history of zombies, car wrecks, tidal waves, extinction, trash heaps, labour, pandemics, wolves, cannibalism, and general nastiness that populate the underside of our cultural imagination. Every age may dream the end of the world to follow, but these scattered nightmare figures are a skewed refraction of the normal hell of capitalism. The apocalypse isn''t something that will happen one day: it''s just the slow unveiling of the catastrophe we''ve been living through for centuries. Against any fantasies of progress, return, or reconciliation, Williams launches a loathing critique of the bleak present and offers a graveside smile for our necessary battles to come.
Book Synopsis Intersubjectivity by : Abraham Adams
Download or read book Intersubjectivity written by Abraham Adams and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The first volume, Language and Misunderstanding, addresses concretism and its discontents. The essays and performance texts herein argue for an expanded consideration of concretism in contemporary practices oriented toward the embodiment of language, in works that challenge the privileging of the body of the word over the body of the artist. Thus Cory Arcangel, Fia Backström, Erica Baum, Paul Chan, Jimmie Durham, and Hito Steyerl all contribute works that in different ways insist on the somatic nature of writing; Andrew Durbin, and Ariane Müller, and Vincent Romagny address the drift of meaning across material; Lucy Ives, Daniel Grúň, and the Young Girl Reading Group are skeptical of dogmas of authorship and identity; Alain Badiou asks when modern art will end; and Abraham Adams polemicizes against the loss of the body in the concrete work. With an introduction by Lou Cantor."--Rabat de la jaquette du volume 1.
