Working in Rome since 1956, Greek artist Jannis Kounellis (born 1936) was a seminal contributor to the Arte Povera group. Kounellis began his career as a painter; influenced by Alberto Burri and Lucio Fontana, he explored the boundaries of the medium and by 1963 was using found elements in his practice. Often monumental in scale, the artist's work unites ancient Greek themes with poor materials such as iron, wool, gold, jute sacks, coal, fire and even, controversially, live animals. One of his best-known works from the late 1960s incorporated 11 horses installed in the gallery. Published in conjunction with an exhibition in Bari, Italy, this monograph examines some of the artist's recent monumental evocations and explorations of the human figure and other sculptures alongside past works.

La régularité des phénomènes de la nature, l'existence d'une répétitivité périodique, cyclique, d'une rythmicité, tout cela est devenu la base de l'élaboration, par Waclaw Szpakowski, d'un système de consignations graphiques de l'infinitude de la ligne, d'un système doté de traits de variabilité et de stabilité pris à la nature. Qunad on parcourt les pages des carnets de l'artiste, on trouve une quantité de notes à côté de systèmes hétérogènes de lignes géométriques.

Photo-based artist and filmmaker Lorna Simpson is considered one of the key representatives of Black-American visual culture. Emerging in the 1980s, Lorna Simpson was in 1993 the first African-American woman ever to show in the Venice Biennale and to have a solo exhibition in the 'Projects' series of The Museum of Modern Art in New York. She is also one of very few Black-American artists ever to have exhibited at Documenta, in 1987 and 2002.

Simpson's well-known fragmented photographs combining images with fragments of text create mysterious, quiet works that reflect the silence of a portion of society - African-American women - rarely if ever represented in art.

Curator of Simpson's Autumn 2002 exhibition at the Studio Museum, Harlem, New York, Thelma Golden talks about the artist's shift from her signature photographic work to her recent, more filmic and sculptural art. In her Survey critic and scholar Kellie Jones places the work in the context of the history of African-American culture as well as the recent history of self-portraiture in art through photography and performance. Curator of Simpson's film presentation at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, in 2002, Chrissie Iles analyses in her Focus the artist's filmworks including a new work to be screened at Documenta 11 (2002). The artist's fragmentary usage of speech is paralleled in her Artist's Choice, an extract from Top Dog/UnderDog by contemporary African-American playwright Suzan Lori Parks, and reflected in her Artist's Writings.

Plötzlich diese Übersicht by the Swiss artists Peter Fischli (b. 1952) and David Weiss (1946-2012), a loose collection of over 350 hand-sculpted, unfired clay figures, is one of those artworks that is very familiar even to those who are not all that interested in art. The artists have created a masterpiece, using an entirely unspectacular material to form sculptural snapshots that sparkle with cheerful wit : sketched models of everyday situations and objects ; clay reproductions that reveal the absurdity and artificial normality of the ordinary. Alongside them are semi-freely imagined scenes and events from history, culture, entertainment, sport and assorted memories from their own biographies, immortalised in emblematic scenarios. The titles, with their characteristic subtle mockery, fragmentary encyclopaedic knowledge and serious irony, are an integral part of the work.
