Synopsis
At some point before publication, a book assumes its final form, the form in which it is experienced by its audience. Naturally, this audience is often oblivious to the many, sometimes complex, decisions involved in constructing visual meaning through the montage of different ideas and elements. But, although these deliberate decisions are not normally communicated to the audience, the book is always to some extent a conception, or mediated presentation.
The contributors to Before Publication consider the construction of visual meaning through montage, with each essay taking as its starting point a particular artifact—from Ed Ruscha’s photobook, Every Building on the Sunset Strip to works by Sergei Eisenstein, Muriel Cooper, and Marshall McLuhan to Tristan Tzara’s unpublished Dadaglobe anthology. A common theme threading throughout the chapters is the relationship between privacy and publicity. A concise introductory chapter by the book’s editors, Nanni Baltzer and Martino Stierli places the chapters in conversation and discusses the broader subject of montage in art, architecture, and book design.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Wenn die Druckmaschine anläuft, erreicht der Inhalt eines Buchs unumkehrbar seine finale Gestalt, und in dieser Form dann auch sein Publikum. Diesem fehlt jedoch zumeist jedes Bewusstsein für die oft komplexen Entscheidungsprozesse und Arbeitsschritte, die zum veröffentlichten Endresultat geführt haben. Before Publication versammelt Beiträge namhafter Autorinnen und Autoren, die sich mit dem Prozess der Montage des Materials und den Schritten hin zur fertigen Gestalt beschäftigen. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf konkreten visuellen Artefakten wie Sammelalben, Tagebüchern und Maquetten sowie auf dem Spannungsfeld zwischen Privatsphäre und Öffentlichkeit. Untersucht werden beispielswiese Ed Ruschas Fotobuch Every Building on the Sunset Strip, Arbeiten von Sergei Eisenstein, die von Tristan Tzara konzipierte, aber unveröffentlicht gebliebene Anthologie Dadaglobe oder Muriel Coopers monumentales Werk The Bauhaus: Weimar, Dessau, Berlin, Chicago. Die Einleitung der beiden Herausgeber Nanni Baltzer und Martino Stierli kontextualisiert die Fragestellung und diskutiert das übergreifende Thema der Montage in Kunst, Architektur und Buchgestaltung.
