Item description from seller
Z : 120 Seiten, 94 farbige und 22 sw Abbildungen - Der Berner Künstler, Musiker und Forscher George Steinmann (*1950) gilt als Brückenbauer zwischen Kunst und Wissenschaft. Er beschäftigt sich mit der Wechselwirkung von Ökologie und Ästhetik und vor allem mit Aspekten kultureller Nachhaltigkeit. Steinmanns Werke sind meistens prozesshaft angelegt, zeitintensiv in ihrer Entstehung und durch den Einbezug von Künstlern und Wissenschaftlern transdisziplinär. Call and Response zeigt Steinmanns Denken und Schaffen. Im ersten Teil werden seine Arbeitsweise, die Weiterentwicklung seines Werks und die Zusammenarbeit mit unterschiedlichen Fachbereichen beleuchtet, im zweiten Teil wird seine künstlerische Arbeit der vergangenen dreissig Jahre präsentiert. Ein bedeutender Beitrag zum zeitgenössischen Kunstdiskurs.

An artist, musician, and researcher, George Steinmann is widely recognized as a crucial intermediary between the worlds of art and the sciences in Switzerland. One of his key interests for years has been the relationship between ecology and aesthetics, an exploration that has involved him in acts of creation with not just other artists, but scientists as well, working together on interdisciplinary topics.
Call and Response presents a close look at Steinmann’s thinking and working methods and analyzes the development of his work and his collaborations across disciplines. From there, the book goes on to feature selected works from the past thirty years of Steinmann’s career, setting them in the context of contemporary artistic discourse. Published to coincide with an exhibition at Kunstmuseum Thun in Switzerland, the book is a testament to a groundbreaking, restlessly creative artist.
