Polite ladies in Victorian costume dancing on tabletops with chairs worn like hats on their heads; young girls with little foals strapped to their backs; a team of women dutifully mending docile tigers with needle and thread--all of these surreal antics depicted on a bare white ground--this is the jauntily disturbing imagery of Amy Cutler (born 1974), as clear-eyed in its execution as it is enigmatic in content. Cutler's gouaches and drawings on paper have won fans and collectors worldwide, and their winning amalgam of rich imagination and skillful execution, which together update lineages as various as Persian miniature painting, Surrealism, children's fairytale books and Japanese woodblock printing, offers satisfactions rarely found in contemporary art. More recently, Cutler has ventured into sculptural installation, realizing her idiosyncratic world in three dimensions with a work titled "Alteraciones," in which dozens of female figurines--produced from molds handmade by the artist--are gathered around a tabletop and are weaving a thread that binds them to each other. This volume, published for the artist's 2011 exhibition at SITE Sante Fe, is Cutler's second monograph (her first went out of print quickly and is already a rarity), and draws from private and public collections to offer a thorough survey of her work from the late 1990s to the present.

Halbleinen. Verlagsfrisch, in Orginalfolie eingeschweißt. mint. Amy Cutler (*1974 in Poughkeepsie, New York) wurde mit ausgesucht detailfreudigen, narrativen Kunstwerken international bekannt. Sie spielen in einem lebendig ausgedachten Universum, in dem Erinnerungen, Beobachtungen und Eingebungen einander überlagern. Bevölkert werden sie von Frauen, die rätselhaften Beschäftigungen nachgehen und unwahrscheinlichen Situationen ausgesetzt sind: Da werden Tiger genäht und wieder mit Streifen versehen oder Figuren erscheinen aus den felsigen Spalten eines Fjords. Die Frauen auf Cutlers Bildern, deren Gesichter gleichzeitig entschlossen und nach innen gekehrt sind, verkörpern die emotionale Komplexität von Situationen des echten Lebens. Der Band zeigt erstmals neue Gemälde, Zeichnungen und präsentiert auch ausführlich Alterations, eine skulpturale Installation, die für das Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid entstand.
