Hardback. Condition: New. Swiss artist Meret Oppenheim (1913-1985) is far more than just the creator of the iconic fur teacup. In the course of her career she produced a complex, wide-ranging, and enigmatic body of work that has no parallel in modern art. Like an x-ray beam, this book scans Oppenheim's artistic oeuvre, bringing its variety, playfulness, and poetry to the fore. Instead of simply answering the riddles posed by these intriguing works, it maps out the paths that will lead us to still more clues.Simon Baur is a leading expert in the life and art of Meret Oppenheim. The nine new essays featured in this volume are at once scholarly and easy to read. In them, Baur shares the many fascinating insights and interpretations that he has gleaned from his decades-long engagement with Oppenheim's work. The result is an anthology that combines both biographical and thematic aspects and takes us on an exciting journey into the poetic cosmos of a truly great female artist.…

Hardback. Condition: New. Annelies Strba (b. 1947) portrays the Blessed Mary not as the mother of God but as an ideal representative of her gender. The photo artist depicts an image of womanhood that elevates erstwhile religious intention to an abstract realm. Digital disengagement and the almost rhapsodic colouration set the stage for a surface on which to project emotions. Strba embraces the Madonnas, dismissing the transcendental and concentrating on the empathetic accent of the mother-child relationship. In choosing Maria, Strba creates the role of woman versed in pain and loss, but also one informed by purity and benevolence. Although these features were originally conceived in the composition and facial expression, the artist defamiliarises them through colour filters and the removal of contours - the dissipating figures lose themselves in their own luminosity.…

Maria was a combination of colours that had a bit ofeach, because a face is beautiful when it has some ofevery colour.With this quote by the Italian cleric Gabriel de Barletta (before 1500), the Swiss author Ilma Rakusa introduces the work of Annelies trba. Through theelaborate digital colouring of a wide variety of Madonnaimages from several centuries and different parts of theworld, the artist reflects the diversity to be found in a single object. Despite the varied images, the Madonna motifremains unequivocal.Annelies trba became established through the photographs of her daughters, which became reflections ofthe fragile phase of adolescence. Pictures that could alsobe read as an expression of the artist and mother's own(perhaps even more sensitive) relationship with her children. With her Madonna pictures Annelies trba redirectsher gaze, this time externally, to the Christian motif as auniversal metaphor for motherhood. In doing so she findsan emphatic approach which transcends the religiousand dogmatic - without having to forsake representingthe wonder of birth and motherhood.This opening up and updating of traditional subjectmatter, this re-enchantment of the world is a particularfeature of Annelies trba's works, one which she alreadydeveloped with her previous series My Life's Dreams andFrances and the Elves, also published by Arnoldsche.
