Trade Paperback. Condition: New. For more than four decades, the elusive but influential Los Angeles-based artist John Knight has developed a practice of site specificity that tests both architectural and ideological boundaries of the museum, gallery, and public sphere. Knight's works defy notions of stylistic coherence, even, at times, of instant recognizability. Grounded in a sustained method of inhabiting the material, discursive and economic conditions of varied sites, his works systematically challenge notions of object, sign, context, authorship, and value, and they confront audiences not only with mailers, posters, and journals but also with carpenter levels, commemorative plates, deck chairs, bicycle bells, flower arrangements, and credit cards. This volume offers essays and interviews that trace the critical thinking on Knight, discussing the artist's trajectory from 1969 to 2011. These texts, by such prominent figures as Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, Anne Rorimer, Alexander Alberro, and Birgit Pelzer, offer close readings of Knight's pivotal projects in situ while also considering them in terms of such art-historical paradigms as the readymade, the anti-aesthetic, institutional critique, and the relationship between art- and design as well as corporate culture at large. The book provides the first collection of these often hard-to-find texts on Knight and will serve as an essential guide for further consideration of his oeuvre.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The first collection of critical writings on the work of the influential contemporary French artist Pierre Huyghe.Influenced by wide-ranging ideas from land art and institutional critique to experimental cinematic practices and narrative film, the groundbreaking work of Pierre Huyghe since the early 1990s has arguably, even indelibly, altered the landscape of contemporary art. The French artist works at the beguiling intersection of fiction and reality, representation and performance, spectacle and memory, chance and agency, living organisms and technological entities. As formats and discourses of cinema (be it Godard or Lumet) and architecture, holidays (invented or existing) and games, (puppet) theater and opera, fairy tales and (travel) literature, museology and computer technology, life sciences and popular culture (like manga comics or Disney movies) are renegotiated in Huyghe's variegated projects, the methods and modalities of producing, exposing, and experiencing art, in turn, come under both critical scrutiny and allegorical speculation.Essays and interviews by preeminent scholars, critics, and curators-including Benjamin Buchloh, David Joselit, and Molly Nesbit-trace the trajectory of Huyghe's practice over the last three decades. You'll find writing about the artist's early engagement with the built environment, the temporalities of cinema and television, the customs of social communities, volatile property relations in global media culture, and his most recent and much-discussed ecological redefinitions of the objects and sites of art. These texts explore the far-reaching implications of Huyghe's many seminal artworks for the history, theory, and ontology of art in the twenty-first century.

Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Condition: Fine, unread and excellent book, all pages and cover excellent with no markings, no tears. Rare book. Collectible. Published by Sternberg Press, an Institut für Kunstkritik publication, Language/Sprache: English. Reprinted 1st edition (2012) // Painting has demonstrated remarkable perseverance in the expanding field of contemporary art and the surrounding ecology of media images. It appears, however, to have dispelled its own once-uncontested material basis: no longer confined to being synonymous with a flat picture plane hung on the wall, today, painting instead tends to emphasize the apparatus of its appearance and the conduits of its circulation. With contributions by Peter Geimer, Isabelle Graw, and André Rottmann, Thinking through Painting investigates painting's traits and reception in cultural and socioeconomic discourse. // 68 pages; format: 19,0 x 12,0 x 0,7 cm; Bookweight: 100 g. …
