Abstract

his handbook provides the definitive guide to commissioning contemporary art. Every step and stage is revealed and demystified - from the initial invitation to an artist to the financing of a project, from the drafting of contracts to the final siting and installation of works, from the care and preservation of commissioned pieces to their interpretation and publicity. Combining theoretical and conceptual considerations with practical ones, Buck and McClean's lively and instructive text is supplemented with copious quotations and insights from some of the best-known artists, curators, commissioners and museum directors of today, including Nicholas Serota, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Jeff Koons, Vito Acconci, Mark Wallinger, Anish Kapoor, RoseLee Goldberg, Thomas Krens, Anne Pasternak, Barbara Gladstone, Mera Rubell, and Olafur Eliasson, to provide a detailed and informed how-to guide to the commissioning process.

Abstract

In 1974 Anselm Kiefer produced Erotik im Fernen Osten oder: Transition from Cool to Warm, a book of watercolors. Thirty years later, Gagosian Gallery’s newest catalogue marks Kiefer’s return to the medium, with works made between 2012 and 2015.

More than forty unique artists’s books, their pages painted with gesso to mimic marble, can be found in the exciting new tome. Artists’s books are an integral part of Kiefer’s oeuvre; over time they have ranged in scale from the intimate to the monumental, and in materials, from lead to dried plant matter. In this selection of books, the sequences of narrative information and visual effect evoke the fragile endurance of the sacred and the spiritual through the female figures on the marbled pages.

Abstract

Exploring the diversity of Sarah Lucas’s work across sculpture, installation and photography, this stunning paperback exhibition book accompanies Tate Britain’s Sarah Lucas: Happy Gas. Sarah Lucas is an internationally celebrated artist known for the provocative use of materials and imagery in her work. Incorporating ordinary objects in unexpected ways, she has consistently challenged our understandings of sex, class and gender over the last four decades. With contributions from Louisa Buck, Nathalie Olah, Lauren Elkin and more, the book looks beyond the generation of 1990s Young British Artists during which Lucas emerged. Exploring the themes and artworks of the 2023 exhibition, we see Lucas breaking boundaries with her bawdy humour and bold daring.

Abstract

Twisted, Urban and Visionary Landscapes in Contemporary Painting includes the work of twelve international painters. A defining characteristic of these artists is their figurative, visual language. This is not so much a reference to a tangible reality, but rather to a reality that is artificial, otherworldly or fabricated. Some of the artists are interested in a reality mediated by video and computer games, television, film, advertising and other media expressions. Other artists use different references to achieve an artificial reality. In both cases it is a reality that is completely man-made, manipulated and synthetic ; for removed from Normal reality. Many of the works are characterised by artificial use of colour, sampling of disparate elements, and patterns thar are almost abstract. This creates a world that,, on the one hand, tends to exalt its very impermanence and, on the other hand, has a disconcerting undertone. Each chapter spotlights one artist, offers an extensive array of visual material and furnishes on accompanying explicative text.An essay by Jaap Guldemond and Marente Bloemheuvel (curators at the Stedelijk Van Abbemuseum) provides a context for and an explanation of the principles and premisses of this theme.
