Abstract

Karl Holmqvist explore avec ce livre d'artiste différents niveaux d'interaction entre le textuel et le visuel. L'ouvrage est constitué de poèmes visuels qui sont à la fois des « dessins » textuels, dans lesquels les lettres et les mots s'assemblent pour constituer des motifs qui varient et se transforment au gré des répétitions, entre sens et non-sens, entre figuration et abstraction. Il contient aussi des suites plus longues de spoken words, destinées à être lues lors de performances, avec des structures rythmiques et musicales proches de mnémoniques ou de diverses traditions orales. De larges parties du livre sont constituées d'« emprunts » à d'autres artistes et forment une petite collection historique de jeux de langage, depuis Dada Berlin et Zurich, le Futurisme, le Vorticisme ou le Lettrisme, jusqu'aux formulations plus contemporaines d'artistes tels que Ferdinand Kriwet ou Shannon Ebner.

Abstract

Initially known for her work in photography - which she has been making over the last three decades - New York-based artist Moyra Davey (born 1958) is also an esteemed writer, editor and, most recently, filmmaker, whose works layer personal narratives with explorations of other authors, filmmakers and artists. This book is based on two related projects that take form as text, photography and film. Les Goddesses (2011) collapses the lives of Davey and her five sisters with those of the daughters of Mary Wollstonecraft, the 18th-century feminist writer and activist. Hemlock Forest (2016) weaves references to Wollstonecraft, Chantal Akerman and Karl Ove Knausgaard with her own family stories. During the making of Hemlock Forest, Akerman took her own life. Her death soon engulfed Davey's awareness, prompting a broader exploration of Akerman's and her own biographies, amid more universal themes of compulsion, artistic production, life and its passing.

Abstract

Jolly Rogers is a collection of Peter Wächtler's latest short texts, written in preparation of his two solo exhibitions at Bergen Kunsthall and Kunsthalle Zürich (both 2019), and combined with a nearly complete collection of the artist's drawings and prints from recent years. The texts operate like vignettes to a larger story, and the images as unreliable illustrations to the narrative. However, the larger story never really is revealed. Each individual text, each single work, articulates itself by means of an intense focus. It is as if we were suspended in a continual zooming motion, as if the artist and author wanted to tell and show it all. But alas, such is life under the microscope: always larger-than-life, but at the wrong scale at a time driven by individual interests, self-optimization, and egos that stage themselves simultaneously as victims and disruptors. Peter Wächtler works in a variety of media: bronze, ceramics, drawings and video. But in many ways "stories" could be described as his main artistic material. His works often evoke a narration, with animals or human figures in animated states. They are made in ways that use and adapt elements of fiction and folklore, relating to specific traditions and common tales, and materialize the ways of telling a story as much as the story itself.

Abstract

The artist's first comprehensive monograph, the book contains documentation of a large selection of works since the early 2000s. Three commissioned essays provide various approaches to the reading of Einarsson's oeuvre. Bob Nickas situates the reader in a science-fiction-inspired future scenario where a book that turns out to be an exhibition catalogue forms the basis for the attempts of the main characters to penetrate into the artist's universe of signs. The philosopher Nick Land outlines a complex interpretative horizon in the encounter with Einarsson's precise analyses of the language of power by exploiting and reactivating the vocabulary of "post-Minimalist" art. And Martin Herbert tackles Einarsson's output in the 2000s, and shows how he continually problematizes the residual potential of art as critique and political tool.--Supplied by publisher.

Abstract

Fredrik Værslev?s work navigates between different painterly traditions, and demonstrates the possibilities and relevance of the medium today. He treats his paintings as objects, often created through more or less laborious, serial, or deterministic processes where time itself, as well as various external factors, become active cocreators in the making of the work. In several series, he has left his paintings outdoors for long periods of time, allowing the weather and external wear to complete the work. Other works employ apparently clichéd techniques, motifs, or art-historical quotations (i.e., dripping and splattering). More recently, Værslev has been working with a tool used for marking painted lines on roads and sports fields. 00Published in conjunction with Fredrik Værselv?s exhibition 'All Around Amateur' at the Bergen Kunsthall and Le Consortium, Dijon, this publication, comes in two different versions, with each book comprising 320 one-to-one digital images scanned from eight of Værslev?s new ?sunset? paintings. Each canvas produces a total of eighty scanned images, which are reproduced in the book sequentially, left to right, top to bottom. The full-bleed scans in each ?volume,? together, reproduce an entire wall of paintings from the exhibition. The paintings, based on photographs of sunsets taken by Værslev on his iPhone from airplane windows, evoke the work of art-historical figures such as J. M. W. Turner, Mark Rothko, and Edvard Munch. 00The catalogue also includes newly commissioned texts by Ina Blom, Martin Clark, and Steinar Sekkingstad as well as an interview with artist Anne Pontégnie.
