Since the late 1970s, the Canadian artist Jeff Wall has contributed significantly to establishing photography as an autonomous medium, and is regarded as one of the key vanguards of 'staged photography'. Referring to his approach as 'near documentary', his images resemble documentary photographs in style and manner, but instead are meticulously composed, multilayered compositions. Synthesizing photography with elements from other art forms such as painting, cinema, and literature-in a complex mode that he calls 'cinematography'-his deeply intellectual work stages fictional realities, memories and past experiences in an elaborate process. Featuring more than fifty works, this catalogue accompanying the large-scale exhibition at the Fondation Beyeler juxtaposes Wall's iconic backlit color transparencies with his more recent black and white photographs and color C-prints, revealing a variety of references in content and form.With his innovative approach to photography, JEFF WALL (*1946, Vancouver) has significantly shaped the medium and its status within contemporary art. After completing his postgraduate studies in art history in the mid-1970s, his new conceptual approach to large-format pictorial photography attracted attention. Each of his images is a unique composition that can take years to complete. Since the mid-1990s he has expanded his repertoire, working with traditional black-and-white prints and, more recently, inkjet color prints. He lives and works in Vancouver.

Fachbuch aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Gesundheit - Sport - Sportarten: Theorie und Praxis, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Im Park sind sie einem bestimmt schon aufgefallen, und auch an anderer Stelle sieht man sie immer häufiger ¿ Leute, die auf einem, meist zwischen zwei Bäumen, gespannten Band balancieren und dabei artistische Bewegungen vollführen. Bis vor Kurzem wussten aber wohl nur die Wenigsten, dass es sich dabei um die Trendsportart Slacklinen (oder Slacklining) handelt. Slacklinen erfreut sich seit den letzten Jahren zunehmender Beliebtheit und konnte, begleitet durch zahlreiche Berichte in elektronischen Medien, Print und TV, ein immer breiteres Publikum erobern. Was verbirgt sich hinter diesem Begriff und dieser Sportart, die Chris Carpenter mit den einfachen Worten ¿Remember, It's Just One Foot In Front Of The Other!¿ (Erinnere dich, man muss nur einen Fuß vor den anderen setzen!) beschreibt. Die vorliegende Hausarbeit gibt einen allgemeinen thematischen Überblick, indem zunächst die Sportart Slacklinen definiert und in ihrer Entstehung betrachtet wird. Anschließend wird kurz das benötigte Material vorgestellt. Des Weiteren werden der Charakter, die Bedeutung und die verschiedenen Disziplinen des Slacklinen vorgestellt. Vervollständigt wird der Überblick durch eine kurze Anleitung für Anfänger.

Dieter Roth (1930-1998) was one of the most innovative and challenging artists of the twentieth century. During preparations for a recent retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, it became clear that America played a crucial role in Roth's artistic development. In Philadelphia he and his students experimented with new graphic and photographic techniques, which resulted in SNOW, a major work now owned by MoMA. It was in Providence that he had his first large studio, and the work made there is pivotal in the development of Roth's oeuvre, including his paintings and prints that incorporated perishable foodstuffs. In Los Angeles, Roth made his famous Steeple Chase (A Race) exhibition, using suitcases filled with different cheeses. Many of the works Roth created during that period are illustrated here in full color.

This catalogue is devoted to the Korean artists Park Suk Won, Park Jang-Nyun, and Song Burnsoo for their lifelong commitment to the establishment of contemporary Korean art. In the 1970s and 1980s, Park Suk Won presented his wood sculptures, through which he pursued his artistic practice of accumulation. In large-format paintings Park Jang-Nyun dealt with the depiction of hyperrealistic forms made of hemp fabric. Song Burnsoo is represented by a large tapestry made in the early 1990s and his later paintings in which his exploration of religious symbols is articulated. This richly illustrated publication offers insight into the oeuvres of three important contemporary Korean artists.PARK SUK WON (*1941) is one of the most prominent figures of Korean postwar art. Although he was still rooted in Abstract Expressionism at the beginning of his career, his minimalist works from the 1970s onward have made him a luminary of abstract Korean sculpture.PARK JANG-NYUN (1938-2009) became an important representative of the Korean Monochrome movement in the 1970s, known as Dansaekhwa. He occupied himself with representing shapes of hemp fabric in a hyperrealistic manner.SONG BURNSOO (*1943) is an internationally renowned contemporary Korean artist whose works are exhibited both nationally and internationally and can be found in many prominent collections. A vast reange of Song's artworks encompasses prints, tapestries, paper reliefs, and environmental installations.

**This deluxe first-print edition will have sprayed edges.** From USA Today bestselling author Rina Kent comes the fourth in a dark and steamy college romance series featuring elite criminal families and morally gray heroes. Mia Solokov has one goal: ruin Landon King for messing with her family. But this sociopathic, genius artist might just ruin her instead. I'm out for revenge. When Mia Sokolov, Mafia heiress and selective mute, successfully gives Landon King a taste of his own medicine, she discovers that her actions may have unwelcome consequences. Landon King is a genius artist, a posh rich boy, and Mia's nightmare. Now, he's obsessed with her. He's never met someone with the same penchant for mischief as himself. But he realizes that beneath Mia's hard outer shell, she is struggling with something that is too horrible to say aloud. Mia can't seem to shake Landon and finds herself increasingly attached to him, despite his seemingly constant ability to make her angry and his psychotic tendencies that always push her a bit too far. And as Landon gets closer to the truth about Mia's past, danger lurks just around the corner. Mia has learned to trust Landon...but will he protect her or ruin her?

A long overdue survey of this exceptional artist, a renegade in every sense of the word, celebrating her legacy as an original member of the Beat Generation in San Francisco and abstract painter in New York. This first comprehensive monograph on Remington (1930–2010) examines her extraordinary career through paintings, prints, and drawings. An enthusiastic participant in the Bay Area’s Beat scene in the early 1950s, Remington made her way to New York in 1965, where she joined the prestigious Bykert Gallery and quickly gained critical attention. Luminous and saturated, her hard-edged abstractions of the 1960s and 1970s are well known; yet the work from the last twenty-five years of her life is not as familiar to art world audiences. After a mid-career survey in 1983, Remington returned to a poetic, gestural sensibility that evoked the natural world and, eventually, her ailing body. This publication traces the arc of these evolutions through lavish illustrations as well as a broad range of texts that includes scholarly essays, remembrances, an interview, and a narrative chronology. Extensive research reveals the artist’s innermost thoughts, enhancing our understanding of the art world during her time. This long overdue examination of her career reveals a visionary artist untethered to the trends and art movements of her own lifetime and prime for rediscovery.

These five little pieces, each based on a Hokusai print, make use of various conventions of traditional Japanese music, such as the (differing) forms of Japanese 'soft' and 'hard' scales. These five little pieces, each based on a Hokusai print, make use of various conventions of traditional Japanese music, such as the (differing) forms of Japanese 'soft' and 'hard' scales. An area of the Japanese ukiyo-e or 'pictures of the floating world' is made up of kacho-ga -literally, 'flower-and-bird pictures'.The idea underlying kacho-ga was not a simple reproduction of nature, but an expression of subjective emotion, giving pleasure to the refined mind that delights in the contemplation of natural beauty. The artist Hokusai, together with his great contemporary, Hiroshige, brought this art to its highest form. Includes: Cormorant in the Snow (Cormorants dans la neige) - Carp in a Waterfall (Carpes dans une chute d'eau) - Azaleas and Cuckoo (Azalées et Coucou) - Peonies and Butterflies (Pivoines et papillons) - Frog on an Old Tile (Grenouille sur une vieille tuile) Instrumentation: for 2 flutes op. 89

Enjoy in the rich beauty of the natural world with this delightful colouring book, with artworks based on the classic botanical illustrations by 17th century artist Alexander Marshal, published in association with The Royal Collection. For Alexander Marshal (c.1620-82), the cultivation of rare plants was essential to the study of the natural world. His interest was stimulated by specimens imported to England from the Near East and the New World in the 17th century. Marshal was not a professional artist, but his florilegium - the only English flower book to survive from the period - contains some of the most beautiful plant studies in botanical art. The 44 illustrations in this coloring book are from Marshal''s florilegium, taken from the private art collection of the British royal family, The Royal Collection . These full-colour plates are shown beside black and white versions to fill with colour. Features: • Thick, high-quality paper to prevent bleed-through • A key of full-colour, thumbnail images to preview the designs • Full-page prints of original full-colour artwork to display ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Classic Nature Colouring series includes archival illustrations by some of history''s most acclaimed naturalists, including Audubon, Pierre-Joseph Redoute and William Lizars. These original full-colour illustrations are presented beside the black and white designs for reference and inspiration.

Neuer Blick auf queeres Leben Philipp Gufler(geb. 1989 in Augsburg, lebt und arbeitet in Amsterdam, Niederlande, und München) verbindet Kunst mit Aktivismus und Geschichtsvermittlung. Im Zentrum seiner künstlerisch forschenden Arbeit steht die Beschäftigung mit queerem Leben und ästhetischen Praktiken von LGBTQIA+-Bewegungen. Dazu bedient der Künstler sich popkultureller und literarischer Referenzen und verarbeitet Wissen aus Massenmedien und historischen Archiven in seinen Videoarbeiten, Siebdrucken, Installationen und Performances. Neben Zeugnissen aus den Medien dienen auch Interviews mit Zeitzeug*innen, Künstler*innen, Aktivist*innen und Theoretiker*innen als Material für seine Arbeiten. Guflers kritisches Anliegen schafft dabei Verbindungen zwischen historischem Umgang mit queerer Identität und ihrer Relevanz innerhalb aktueller Debatten und der Institutionskritik. Die PublikationDis/Identification,die anlässlich der ersten institutionellen Einzelausstellung des Künstlers erscheint, bringt alle Werkstränge aus über zehn Jahren künstlerischer Praxis zusammen. Mit Texten von Yasmin Naderi Afschar, Karolina Kühn, Sandro Weilenmann und einem Gespräch zwischen Louwrien Wijers und dem Künstler. Ausstellung Dis/Identification, Kunsthalle Mainz, bis 16. Juni 2024 . A Fresh Perspective on Queer Life Philipp Gufler(b. Augsburg, 1989; lives and works in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and Munich) blends art with activism and history education. His research-based artistic work centers on the study of queer life and the aesthetic practices of LGBTQIA+ movements. To investigate them, the artist harnesses pop-cultural and literary references and translates knowledge gleaned from mass media and historical archives into videos, silkscreen prints, installations, and performances. Besides documentary evidence from the media, the materials out of which he makes his works include interviews with contemporary witnesses, artists, activists, and theorists. Gufler’s critical studies draw connections between historic attitudes toward queer identity and their relevance to current debates as well as institutional critique.

“Lisa Solomon’s fun and interactive A Field Guide to Color functions as part sketchbook, part instruction. Learn more about color theory as you complete 30 journal exercises with the watermedia of your choice. Play, explore, and deepen your own practice.” —Watercolor Artist magazine “For many people, effectively using color in their work is a mysterious process. But in A Field Guide to Color, master-of-color Lisa Solomon breaks down how color works so that we can make both playful and harmonious choices as we create. This gorgeous and informative book is soon to be a bible for every painter.” —Lisa Congdon, artist and author of Art Inc. and Find Your Artistic Voice “ A Field Guide to Color is a thoughtful, informative, beautiful book. It is almost too beautiful to use as the author intended, as a true workbook to be painted and experimented in. Even though I’ve worked as an artist for over a decade, I learned a lot from Lisa’s book. The exercises are both informative and meditative, making the book an essential part of every artist’s—whether professional or hobbyist—library.” —Jen Hewett, author of Print, Pattern, Sew “In her new book, A Field Guide to Color, Lisa Solomon joyfully presents the basic concepts of shade and saturation, all while inviting us to explore basic principles of color theory through guided exercises. Solomon expressly encourages experimentation through mixing, diluting, and matching, all with gentle reassurances to try things and not worry about getting it right or wrong. It is this freedom—the permission to make marks, not to replicate an image but simply for creation—that sets this book apart. A Field Guide to Color provides a multi-hued reason to take a moment away from screens and put brush to paper.” —Sonya Philip, creator of 100 Acts of Sewing
