Das Prinzip der Dualität steht in physischer ebenso wie in metaphorischer Hinsicht seit jeher im Mittelpunkt von Stezakers Arbeit. In seiner jüngsten Collagenwerkreihe "Double Shadow" bedient sich der Künstler Prozessen des Teilens und Verdoppelns, um über das Unheimliche duplizitärer Figuren zu reflektieren: etwa jener des Doppelgängers, des Janus und des Hermaphroditen. Durch eine Aneinandersetzung silhouettenhafter Konturen wird den aus trivialen Quellen übernommenen archetypischen Bildern neues Leben eingegeben. Die in Hollywood-Bildgestaltungen der 1950er-Jahre so scharf umrissenen Profile von Männlichkeit und Weiblichkeit lösen sich in eigentümliche, bisweilen monströse Hybride auf; es entstehen beunruhigende Nebeneinanderstellungen an der Überlagerung von Schattenbereichen, die sich zwischen den Welten aufzutun scheinen. Von der Verwendung von Schattenrissen in Märchenillustrationen des Fin de Siècle wie auch dem frühen expressionistischen Film ließ sich Stezaker nach eigener Aussage dazu anregen, in diesen Werken "die Freude am Zeichnen" ebenso wiederzuentdecken wie "die Kraft des Konturs, eine Trennlinie zwischen An- und Abwesenheit sowie dem Imaginären und dem Realen abzustecken".

In den letzten 20 Jahren hat Camille Henrot eine von der Kritik gefeierte Praxis entwickelt, die sich zwischen Zeichnung, Malerei, Skulptur, Installation und Film bewegt. Mother Tongue ist die erste Publikation der Künstlerin, die sich ausschließlich auf Malerei und Zeichnung konzentriert und über 200 Werke aus den zwischen 2018 und 2022 entstandenen Serien System of Attachment, Wet Job und Soon vereint. Dieses jüngste Werk thematisiert die ambivalente Natur der Fürsorge und die Spannung zwischen dem gleichzeitigen Bedürfnis nach Bindung und Selbstbehauptung, das im Säuglingsalter beginnt und sich durch das ganze Leben zieht. Individuelle, intime Auseinandersetzungen führen dabei immer auch zu umfassenden Fragestellungen, wie den gesellschaftlichen Erwartungshaltungen an Mutterschaft und der Repräsentation des weiblichen Körpers. Der reich bebilderte Katalog wird begleitet von Texten von Emily Labarge, Legacy Russell, Marcus Steinweg, Hélene Cixous, Seamus Kealy und einem Gespräch zwischen Camille Henrot und der Kuratorin Julika Bosch. CAMILLE HENROT (*1978, Paris) gilt als eine der einflussreichsten Stimmen der zeitgenössischen Kunst. Referenzen aus Literatur, Psychoanalyse, Kulturanthropologie und der Banalität des Alltags aufgreifend, hinterfragt sie, was es bedeutet, sowohl privates Individuum als auch globales Subjekt zu sein. Henrots Arbeiten werden weltweit in Einzelausstellungen gezeigt, zuletzt im Munch Museum, Oslo; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; Kunsthalle Wien und New Museum, New York. Sie lebt und arbeitet zwischen Berlin und New York.
The artist's deceptively beautiful work--colorful tapestries and garden-inspired installations created out of faux flowers, glitter, sequins, fabric, toys, beads, jewelry, and other embellishments--comes to life at The New York Botanical Garden, where she employs the beauty and symbolism of living plants to unearth the complex entanglements of race, gender and colonialism. Accompanying a major site-specific exhibition of sculptural and horticultural installations by artist Ebony G. Patterson at The New York Botanical Garden, this volume provides deeper insights into Patterson's multilayered practice. The artist's work has long examined and experimented with the concept of the garden through a practice that uses beauty as an invitation to confront larger societal questions and concerns.
1976 in Offenburg geboren, studierte Steffen Lenk an der Außenstelle Freiburg der Staatlichen Akademie der Bildenden Ku¿nste Karlsruhe. Seine Arbeiten sind geprägt von einer fulminanten Farbigkeit und einem experimentellen malerischen Duktus. Lenk arbeitet prozessual und vornehmlich abstrakt. Dabei erinnern seine sich pastos überlagernden Farbschichten, die viele seiner Bilder prägen, an zeitgeno¿ssische Bildwelten der elektronischen Medien, welche die Welt beständig neu fluten. Die Publikation stellt Arbeiten der letzten zehn Jahre vor.
Sorg og Samfund er et nyt litterært tidsskrift, der både bringer nyskreven poesi og kritik, såvel som oversættelser, kunst og modekritik. Vores ambition er at præsentere de nyeste strømninger i kunst, mode og digtning ved at have de folk, der skaber strømningerne til at være bidragsydere i vores magasin. Vi oplever at den tværæstetiske kunstscene i de her år er betydningsfuld og dannende for den kunstneriske refleksion, og vi vil være det tidsskrift der kan favne den faglige refleksion, de udøvende kunstere (såvel som de afdøde), den kritiske stillingtagen og samtidigt være formidlende og underholdende i forhold til en større offentlighed.
Opslagsbog hvor der sættes fokus på kunst og kunsthåndværk. Vi har samlet etablerede kunstnere, gallerier og museer fra København i ét værk. Målet er at skabe overblik og gennemsigtighed. Vi ønsker at gøre afstanden mellem kunsten og den kunstinteresserede mindre. Formålet er at gøre det lettere at finde og opsøge kunsten i Danmark. Vi sætter med andre ord kunstperlerne på snor og samler dem i én smuk perlekæde.

"Activism and street art have been fellow travelers for ages and as it turns out the concerns of environmentalists are particularly well suited for direct visual actions in the streets. A sequel to the bestselling Street Art in the Time of Corona, Street Art for the Planet collects the work of activist street artists including Blu, Pejac, Elle, OSCH, RNST, Wrdsmith, ROA, and Banksy alongside the work of eco street art pioneers from the 1960s to the present. Major themes addressed by the artists include: global warming, loss of habitat, green movements crushed by oppressive states, rising sea levels, displaced communities and climate refugees, air pollution, petroleum addiction, effects of drought, corporate greenwash and more. This grabby little book makes a strong case that street art is the most effective art form for highlighting the threats faced by our fragile planet."--Provided by publisher.
