Softcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 16 x 23 cm, 280 pages, 28 color & 23 b/w illustrations. - Museums of contemporary artas they have been defined, activated, and understood over the past thirty yearsare in need of a reassessment to re-think the traditional notion of the "museum." With its traditional core tasks of c…ollection and conservation, this historic category stands in contrast to the term "contemporary." This volume takes a variety of complementary perspectives on today's museology as it reflects upon the paradoxes underlying the very concept of the museum of contemporary art. Composed of three chapters"Now," "Tomorrow," and "Flux"and gathering together original essays, extensive conversations, as well as canonical texts, this anthology addresses questions regarding the roles and tasks of the contemporary art museum. It discusses its double character as a site of both production and conservation, and emphasizes its relation to different public spheres. It also explores ways of dealing with the standards, norms, and regulations that emerge from the practices of collecting, organizing, and educating.

Softcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24 x 17 cm, 208 pages, numerous illustrations - Reprocessing Reality is designed to elucidate the notion of reality in all its facets. Dealing critically with reality has a long history, particularly in visual arts. The question of what reality is or could be is also broached in Vi…sions du Réel, the film festival in Nyon. Film and art, while looking back on a quite different past, are actually moving in the same direction. Reprocessing Reality is conceived as a curator's essay that makes us acutely aware of the power of imagery as well as its shortcomings. It revolves around media, people, and stories. Taking stock of an environment formed by ambiguities and interdependencies, the project deals with issues that concern the reader's own context of life. Three introductory essays discuss the subject of the documentary from three different perspectives: that of the visual arts, the documentary film, and the mass media. The main focus of the publication is on the artists themselves, and their contribution to the current discourse is presented by an extensive set of illustrations and accompanied by their own texts.
