Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Focus on Natural ForcesIn a historical moment gripped by environmental catastrophes of our own making, Julius von Bismarck confronts the forces of nature at their unruly extremes. Deploying sculpture, photography, video and technological devices designed to harness the elements, Bismarck stills water droplets and fragments of exploding stone, shaping them into slow-motion disasters calibrated to the rate of human perception. Through performative encounters with lightning, wildfires, hurricanes and ocean waves, the artist stages a timely reckoning with the fate of age-old ideas of nature. Following a forward by museum director Susanne Pfleger, Talking to Thunder explores the implications of Bismarck's latest work through essays by philosopher Dehlia Hannah and curator Nadim Samman, interviews with Wiwa shaman Taita, Jurgen Trittin of the German Green Party, and fire historian Stephen Pyne, and excerpts from Gaston Bachelard and Max Frisch. The Berlin-based artist's latest works explore the destructive beauty of natural forces--lightning strikes, tornadoes, and forest fires--and catastrophes caused by humans. A student of ilafur El'asson, von Bismarck explores the relationship between nature and human perception in his installation, video, and performance works.nd performance works.

Gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Unter Dekonstruktivismus lässt sich sowohl eine spezifische Form des Denkens wie auch eine bestimmte Technik im Umgang mit Materialien verstehen. Freiwalds Kunst zeichnet aus, beide Seiten auf beeindruckende Weise zusammenzuführen. Zunächst rückt er dem materiellen Grund der Malerei zu Leibe, indem er die Bildträger versengt, zerschneidet oder zersägt. Der verbleibende Raum ist reiner Bildraum und untersteht ganz der expressiven Qualität der ihn ausfüllenden Farbflächen. Seine Werke inszenieren hierdurch auf immer neue Weise eine spannende Dialektik. Sie changieren zwischen Materie und Wirkung, um die Frage nach den Beziehungen zwischen Gegenstand und phänomenaler Ausdruckskraft der Kunst zu stellen. Diese lebendige Philosophie im Gewandt sublimer Ästhetik fängt der Ausstellungskatalog ein. Er zeigt, wie sich in Freiwalds Arbeiten Denken und Sehen überlagern, um wahrhaft visionär zu werden.TIM FREIWALD (\*1986, Leisnig) war Meisterschüler bei Thomas Scheibitz, Akademie der Bildenden Künste, München Schon zuvor haben seine eigenwilligen Kompositionen vielfach Preise gewonnen. Dieser Katalog erscheint zu Freiwalds Einzelausstellung Keeping Things Whole in der Kunsthalle Bremerhaven. 160 pp. Deutsch, Englisch.…

Hardback. Condition: New. A Perfect Present? After Autistic Disco, O Mensch is the new photo book by Berlin actor Lars Eidinger. It combines photographs from the last three years taken with a mobile phone camera with older images shot with a single-lens reflex camera. Eidinger's images resemble seemingly harmless snapshots only on the surface. In a society of singularities and vanishing boundaries between humans and machines, the absurd reality of everyday life has become a colossal photomontage. From the perspective of an actor who knows that the reciprocal presence of good and evil is the core of every truthful and touching character, Lars Eidinger creates images that put human ambiguity at the center. The Berlin-based Japanese poet Yoko Tawada, has written short poems in the form of haikus for a selection of photographs, adding a poetic layer to the interpretive space.…
