Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this volume explores representations of skin in literature, art, art history, visual media, and medicine and its history. The essays collected here probe the symbolic potential of skin as a shifting sign in various historical and cultural contexts, and also examine the material and organic properties of the body’s largest organ. They deal with skin as a sensual organ, as an interface or contact zone, as the visual marker of identity, and as a lieu de memoire in different periods and media. In its material characteristics, skin is regarded as a medium, a canvas, a surface, and an object of both artistic and medical investigations. The contributions investigate representations of skin in sculpture, painting, film, and fictional, as well as non-fictional, texts from the 16th century to the present. The topics addressed here include the problematic representation of racial identity via skin colour in various media; the sensual qualities of the skin, such as smell or taste; the form and function of tattoos as markers of personal, as well as collective, identity; and scars as signifiers of personal pain and collective suffering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As reflected in the title of the book, the contributions here describe a series of artistic and activist actions in different places sing different forms of aesthetic styles to challenge the existing order of things. Nine chapters present specific situations in Europe and the US in a multilocal dialogue. This multifaceted collection questions contemporary ideas and actions in the face of the Great Transition. It offers a suite of case studies that are linked by elective affinities, an immediate and intuitive accordance between both the activists and the authors despite their differences. All actors tend to reflect a similar concern for their direct environment in proposing and documenting utopian forms which are also dealing with the past and present with a form of tenderness for the “here and there”. This shared sympathetic interest explains why the book also corresponds to a form of engaged scholarship. The chapters contribute to the long roll of historical debates and conflicts on “what is to be done” at present and in the near and distant future.

Book excerpt: Every endeavour to review and write the history of contemporary art in Turkey calls upon the name of a pioneering, founding artist who marks a turning point, a moment of beginning: Altan Gürman (1935-1976). Altan Gürman’s oeuvre is brought to viewers for the first time in such an exhaustive capacity through one of the inaugural exhibitions at Arter’s new building in Dolapdere. The catalogue accompanying the exhibition, curated by Başak Doğa Temür, not only features almost all of Altan Gürman’s works included in the Arter Collection, but also presents to readers various documents, drawings, sketches, correspondences, photographs, class notes, slides, and meticulous arrangements from the artist’s archives, as well as his theses permeated with a new concept of art that would leave its imprint on the 1960s and 1970s. The book includes essays by Barış Acar, Selen Ansen, Ahu Antmen, Duygu Demir, Bora Gürdaş, Ali Kayaalp, İz Öztat and Nermin Saybaşılı which carefully reread Altan Gürman from an art historical perspective, address the artist’s impact and various stages of evolution, and open Gürman’s works to new encounters by approaching each one individually. Both the exhibition and the accompanying book pay a collective homage to a mind-opening artist who passed away at a young age.

Book excerpt: The pictorial expression that is shared by many contemporary artists all over the world can be traced back to the cradle of humanity. It builds on the three universal principles of art: art can give pictorial form to ideas and concepts (imagination), it can quite simply use symbols and patterns to present complex matters (abstraction) and, finally, it may serve as a medium for telling and representing a story or a ritual act (narration). Each of the three sections in the publication Signs of Life is dedicated to one of these three aspects.

A través de la participación de 56 artistas, no pretende arrojar una mirada totalizadora sobre el aquí y ahora, sino dar mayor visibilidad a formas de trabajo que se han desarrollado en los últimos 20 años. A modo de marco conceptual, el proyecto se ha articulado en torno a la idea de "expectativa", entendida como una bisagra mediadora entre pasado, presente y futuro.

Book excerpt: Published to accompany the group exhibition of the same name at Haunch of Venison, June September 11 2004, this catalogue includes artworks by 17 acclaimed international contemporary artists from Europe and America which explore the issue of how the otherness of animals opens up new ways of thinking. The works question the common ways we understand animals, and rather than objectifying or anthropomorphising them, present them as beings in their own right, often incomprehensible and mysterious. most of the works are new or previously unseen in the UK, and a number have been made especially for this exhibition. The artists use a wide range of styles and media, including video, photography and sound sculpture. This variety of approaches gives the viewer the opportunity to consider both the subjectivity of animals and their difference from humans.
