To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Picasso's death, this spectacular volume of the artist's early paintings and sculptures is being reissued. The paintings from his so-called Blue and Rose periods to early Cubism, created between 1901 and 1907, are milestones on Picasso's path to becoming the most famous artist of the twentieth century. In 2019, the Fondation Beyeler presented some 80 masterpieces from renowned museums and private collections in its most prestigious exhibition to this date. They are not only among the most valuable works of art ever to exist, but are widely viewed as some of modernism's most beautiful and emotive artworks. This volume brings the early work of this exceptional artist to life in a unique way.PABLO PICASSO (1881-1973) is regarded as the epitome of the twentieth-century artist. In addition to his paintings and sculptures, his graphic works also enjoy special fame.
A key theme pervading the work of Alex Müller (*1969) is her investigation of the complex phenomenon of time. Again and again, the artist finds impressive images representing time - both its progress as well as its relative nature. For Kunsthalle Nürnberg, Alex Müller has developed an exhibition that combines biographical allusions, cultural and art historical references. In eight chapters, the exhibition takes us on a journey through the artist's universe.Numerous everyday objects become charged with a specific meaning in Alex Müller's oeuvre. Any material can become an artistic material in her work. The artist underlines the open narratives of her art by cleverly playing with the boundaries of painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, film, sound, and performance.Stories are hinted at, but never fully told. The titles evoke associations with specific people, books, films, or events. Alex Müller's art always suggests something unspoken, encouraging further thought, and represents the perpetual search for the self as well as a varied exploration of transience.

Ecoute, Partage, Respect sont des maîtres mots dans la vie de Richard Amalric.On pourrait y ajouter Amour en l'écoutant parler des couples qu'il a formés avec chacun des chevaux qui ont croisé son parcours. Lui-même n'hésite pas à dire "mariage" avec ceux qui furent la première passion de son existence.Et parce qu'ils méritent bien, comme les humains, une biographie, voici les portraits de ceux qui lui ont tant appris.
Rainer Jacob (b. Jena, 1970; lives and works in Leipzig) has anonymously installed objects made of ice in public settings in cities including Berlin, Leipzig, Paris, Moscow, Oslo, Prague, and Budapest since 2013. He then allows them to dematerialize and records the process in photographs. Radiators, wall outlets, QR codes, and the Duchampian pissoir are among his recurrent motifs. The impermanence of the ice objects builds bridges to street art, Fluxus, and action art. Critical observations on the unequal distribution of resources and political power in contemporary society, his works reflect on our perceptions and question the idea of originality in art while also probing the outer limits of sculpture.The publication showcases the ice objects of the past ten years, embedding them in a decade that has marked a sea change in the life of humankind: JustICE captures an artist's distinctive perspective on societal processes.
Ossian Fraser (b. Edinburgh, 1983; lives in Munich and Berlin) molds and captures evanescent moments. Working with volatile materials such as water, dust, or light, the artist exposes the latent potentials of unremarkable situations in the urban fabric and natural scenes. A tunnel in a city, a rock face in the mountains become points of departure and elementary components of his site-specific interventions, which he records in photographs. The book is the first to offer comprehensive insight into Fraser's artistic practice. Series of pictures showcasing his conceptual and poetic pieces alternate with conversations that not only demarcate the framework in which his art operates, but also touch on the great issues of our time.Ossian Fraser studied fine arts and sculpture at the Alanus University of Arts and Social Sciences, Bonn, from 2006 until 2009 and at the Weißensee Kunsthochschule, Berlin, from 2009 until 2013, rounding out his education in Albrecht Schäfer's master class in 2013-2014.

The Nordic colour palette has seen a dramatic shift in recent years - plain white walls and monochrome tones have been replaced with rich, complex and vibrant hues.
My Body is a Battlefield offers a comprehensive insight into the work of the Ukrainian artist Maria Kulikovska, born in Crimea in 1988. Already in her early works she deals with patriarchal structures and the absence of female subjectivity in Ukrainian art. With the annexation of Crimea and the ensuing war, questions of identity and belonging and the themes of border and violence become leitmotifs of her artistic practice. Kulikovska's sculptures are exact copies of her body or individual body parts. Made of unusual materials such as ballistic soap, grease, or epoxy resin, the casts are subject to processes of aging and decay, are modified, transformed, and deconstructed. In her watercolors and drawings, created as series, for example on medical reports and authority forms, she designs bodies that resist the markings and boundaries of the paper as much as the bureaucratic constraints and gender fixations formulated there. Her ceramics-molds of severed limbs and replicas of bodily fluids-are forms of rage and despair in the face of the brutality and horrors of war.Kulikovska shows her body as a site of conflicting emotions and traumatic memories, as a contested arena of ideological attributions and warlike aggression; she asserts herself, drastically and dramatically, against gender and sexual norming, against violence and subjugation.The illustrated book was published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same name at the Francisco Carolinum in Linz, the artist's first solo exhibition in the German-speaking world.
A leading authority on the Bayeux Tapestry examines the work "frame by frame" in this profusely illustrated and annotated volume.

Roman Signer hat in seinem unverkennbaren Werk die Vorstellung von Skulptur entscheidend erweitert. Seine Aktionen machten ihn zu einem der bekanntesten Schweizer Gegenwartskünstler. Weniger bekannt sind seine «Reisefotos». Sie entstehen ohne Plan und halten Situationen und Ereignisse fest, auf die der Künstler mehr oder weniger zufällig tritt. Die von den Kräften der Natur geformten Gebilde oder von fremder Hand geschaffene Konstellationen erinnern immer wieder an Signers eigene Objekte. Der Künstler fotografiert beiläufig, mit viel Sympathie für anonyme Skulpturen und immer mit dem ihm eigenen Humor.Text: Stephan Kunz.
DER GROSSE BOGENDer »große Bogen« oder auch »arc de cercle ist mit seiner Ambivalenz des Kontrollverlusts und der Beherrschung ein verführerisches Motiv, das eine lange Tradition in der Kunst- und Kulturgeschichte hat. Es findet sich in Darstellungen von Tanz und Akrobatik, beschreibt aber auch physische oder psychische Krankheiten: Der überstreckte (Frauen-)Körper drückt ekstatische Entrückung oder auch eine psychotische Störung aus, im Tanz aber steht er für virtuose Körperbeherrschung und Expressivität. Mit »Arch of Hysteria« widment das Museum der Moderne, Salzburg, eine Ausstellung diesem bildmächtige Motiv. Es werden Kunstwerke der letzten 100 Jahre aus verschiedenen Kontexten gezeigt und so der Vielfalt der Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten nachgegangen, die der Pose innewohnen - bis hin zu ihrer Umwandlung in abstrakte, aber dennoch expressive und daher unverkennbare Formen. Buch und Ausstellung beleuchten die (kunst)geschichtlichen Wurzeln des Motivs ebenso wie aktuelle Fortschreibungen in Malerei, Zeichnung, Skulptur, Fotografie, Video- sowie Performancekunst. Unter den ProtagonistInnen finden sich u. a. Denis Darzacq, Max Ernst, Georg Herold, Gustav Klimt, Alfred Kubin, Auguste Rodin, aber auch Alexandra Bircken, Louise Bourgeois, Ronit Porat, Barbis Ruder, Charlotte Rudolph, Valerie Schmidt und VALIE EXPORT; dabei sind viele Arbeiten extra für die Schau entstanden und werden in diesem Buch erstmals abgebildet.Ausstellung:Museum der Moderne Salzburg, 21/7/2023 - 14/1/2024
Gregor Schneider Preisträger Ernst Franz Vogelmann-Preis für Skulptur 2023Den Räumen nie entkommen zu können, weil sie gesellschaftlich und durch Tabus aufgeladen sind, weil sie neben ihrer physischen auch eine psychische Wirkung entfalten, kennzeichnet die künstlerische Haltung von Gregor Schneider. Gregor Schneider, 1969 in Rheydt geboren, ist 2001 mit »Totes Haus u r« schlagartig einer breiten Öffentlichkeit bekannt geworden, nachdem die Arbeit auf der Biennale in Venedig mit dem Goldenen Löwen ausgezeichnet worden war. Nun erhält er, nach Roman Signer, Franz Erhard Walther, Thomas Schütte, Richard Deacon und Ay¿e Erkmen, den Ernst Franz Vogelmann-Preis 2023 für Skulptur. Der seit 2016 an der Kunstakademie Düsseldorf lehrende Künstler »schaut hinter die Fassade der Dinge und definiert nebenbei die Begriffe Bildhauerei und Installation neu«, begründete die Jury ihre Wahl. Und in der Tat, seine biografisch fundierte Agenda bildet den irritierenden Ausgangspunkt seiner Arbeiten, die die BesucherInnen zu handelnden AkteurInnen werden lassen.Ausstellung:Kunsthalle Vogelmann, Heilbronn, 15/7 - 29/10/2023

Throughout recorded history, the horse has played many roles in human life. He has been man's partner in war, his servant in work, his teammate in sports, his inspiration in art. So it is only natural that literature includes many masterpieces about horses and horsemanship.The Greatest Horse Stories Ever Told gathers together the best of the equestrian genre. It includes stories and articles by Pulitzer Prize-winners Red Smith, Maxine Kumin, and Jane Smiley, and tales by jockey-turned-mystery novelist Dick Francis and veterinarian-turned-writer James Herriot. Here also are reflections on fox hunting by Steven Budiansky and Anthony Trollope; a profile of Buck Brannaman, the inspiration for The Horse Whisperer; an inspirational piece from Ellie Phayer; and a story about the Spanish Riding School's dancing white horses by Felix Salten (author of Bambi), as well as writing from Tom McGuane, Bill Barich, humorist Cooky McClung, and classic western authors Will James and Zane Grey.Heartwarming, adventurous, profound, and funny, this anthology is a treasure trove that includes favorite writers and little-known or long-forgotten gems, illuminating our fascination-and captivation-with horses.
