Abstract

From 1979 to 2012, Swiss artists Peter Fischli and David Weiss created a remarkable body of photographs, films, sculptures, and multimedia instalations, offering a sustained and deceptively casual meditation on how we perceive everyday life. Published to accompany the exhebition at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, collaboration, augmented by hundreds of archival images, notes on process, and interview excerpts culled from their archives. A series of probing essays on the artists' practice and thematic concerns rounds out this definitive account of Fischli and Weiss's vital contribution to contemporary art.

Abstract

Cet ouvrage est le fruit d'une double constatation. D'une part, il témoigne de la présence récurrente de la poupée dans le champ de l'art contemporain. De l'autre, il montre que ces jouets ainsi détournés en projet artistique véhiculent souvent un propos transgressif à l'encontre des normes en vigueur dans la société. En convoquant la poupée, l'artiste questionne deux notions essentielles en art - la mimesis et son corollaire le simulacre. Il semble donc logique que les artistes d'une modernité qui a rompu définitivement avec le concept d'imitation dirigent plus volontiers leur propos vers les grands débats qui agitent la société depuis les cent dernières années : perversions sexuelles, essor de la chirurgie esthétique, clonage, multiculturalisme, identités transgenres, reconfiguration de la famille traditionnelle, etc. En retraçant l'histoire de la poupée et en abordant les réflexions philosophiques qu'elle ne manque pas d'évoquer, Poupées et tabous, le double jeu de l'artiste contemporain dévoile un peu du mystère de son inquiétante étrangeté.

Abstract

Performing for the camera' examines how the photograph has both documented and developed our understanding of performance since the invention of the photographic medium. It engages with both the serious business of art and performance and the humour and improvisation of posing for the camera. Featuring many of the most compelling and experimental photographers in history, it explores the works by artists such as Yves Klein, Yayoi Kusama, Nadar, Merce Cunningham, Charles Ray, Boris Mikhailov, Samuel Fosso, Cindy Sherman, Keith Arnatt and Masahisa Fukase. Edited by curator Simon Baker, this book provides fresh insight into the inter-relationship between performance and photography. With over 300 illustrations, this is the definitive publication on two of the most popular and intriguing art forms of our time.0Exhibition: Tate Modern, London, UK (18.02-12.06.2016).
