Abstract

British artist Gillian Wearing, winner of the 1997 Turner Prize, uses photography and video to explore the intimacies and complexities of everyday life. Borrowing from popular culture, her work is disturbing and confessional. In 1992 she began the acclaimed series Signs that say what you want them to say and not Signs that say what someone else wants them to say', in which random passers-by are photographed holding messages they've written, such as the mild-mannered young businessman whose sign unexpectedly reads 'I'm Desperate'.Wearing's work borrows from familiar forms of popular culture to produce direct, revealing records of deep-seated human trauma and emotion, often adopting the methods of television documentaries for her 'fly-on-the-wall' view of people's lives. Her videos can be alarming, as in Confess All ... in which masked individuals confess their darkest secrets, or humorous, as in (Slight) Reprise - a sampler of adults playing 'air guitar' in the fantasy rock stadium of their bedrooms. Her art can be disconcerting or uplifting: an honest portrait of the many sides to contemporary life.With exhibitions in Britain, the US, Europe and Japan, Wearing is among the best-known and most internationally recognized of the recent generation of British artists. This is the first publication ever to survey this remarkable young artist's gripping work in its entirety.Russell Ferguson of UCLA's Hammer Museum contextualizes Wearing's work in relation to historical precedents in painting, photography and video art. Curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art Donna De Salvo discusses with the artist her collaborative approach towards her work and its subjects. London-based critic John Slyce focuses on Wearing's work 10-16, a remarkable video installation that charts our transition from childhood to adolescence. The artist has selected transcripts from director Michael Apted's acclaimed British television documentary series Seven Up, an important influence on the process Wearing uses in her own work. Published here for the first time in full are the transcripts of the artist's video works.

Abstract

From the eccentric Museo La Specola in Florence comes this amazing collection of waxworks depicting the human anatomy in all its dazzling complexity. The 27 wax bodies and 1500 part and organ studies that make up the museum’s collection are presented here; from skeletons to vein structures, organs to nerves, and arteries to the delicate pores of the skin, the human body is mapped out in meticulous and exacting detail. Texts explaining the human anatomy in laypersons’ terms and exploring the historical and cultural significance of the wax figures complete this “total body experience.”

Abstract

Heaven looks at postmodern religious iconography through texts and works by various artists. The traditional religious images of gods, saints, angels and devils, of rituals, devotional articles, altars and places of worship have survived in our secularised world. But today, religion takes on a guise more in tune with the times. The longing for religiosity has been camouflaged so as to survive in the postmodern world. The cult of rock stars and the trade in fan articles is similar to the cult of saints and the trade in their relics. Figures like Elvis Presley, Princess Diana and Marilyn Monroe have become icons of our culture because they have acquired a religious aura. Our new places of worship are museums, the graves of famous people, football stadiums or tennis courts. Paradise can be found in tourist resorts on southern beaches, in leisure parks and in shopping centres. This book uses the work of 35 international artists to illuminate the hidden structures of a contemporary religious energy. The religious aspects of fashion are explored through the work of couturiers such as Thierry Mugler, Majida Khattari and Viktor & Rolf. (German edition available 3-89322-986-8) The artists: Sylvie Blocher, Jessica Diamond, Sylvie Fleury, Katja Kloft, Jeff Koons, Inez van Lamsweerde, Justen Ladda, Mariko Mori, Shirin Neshat, Orlan, Tony Oursler, Ed Ruscha, Jeffrey Shaw, Haim Steinbach, a. o.
