Abstract

A new look at the art of one of the most charming and idiosyncratic personalities of early 20th-century New York Florine Stettheimer (1871-1944). Stettheimer was a New York original: a society lady who hosted an avant-garde salon in her Manhattan home, a bohemian and a flapper, a poet, a theater designer, and above all an influential painter with a sharp satirical wit. Stettheimer collaborated with Gertrude Stein and Virgil Thomson, befriended (and took French lessons from) Marcel Duchamp, and was a member of Alfred Stieglitz and Georgia O'Keeffe's artistic and intellectual circle. Beautifully illustrated with 150 color images, including the majority of the artist's extant paintings, as well as drawings, theater designs, and ephemera, this volume also highlights Stettheimer's poetry and gives her a long overdue critical reassessment.

Abstract

Francesca Woodman took her first photograph at the age of thirteen. From the time she was a teenager until her death at twenty-two, she produced a fascinating body of work exploring gender, representation, and the very nature of the photograph itself using her own body and those of her friends. Featuring approximately forty unique vintage prints, as well as notes, letters, postcards, and other ephemera from a pivotal moment in the artist's young career, this volume, accompanying an exhibition of the same name, details Woodman's creative and personal coming-of-age during the years 1975-79. George Lange, a close friend of Woodman's and her family's -and a photographer in his own right - introduced curator Nora Burnett Abrams to the cache of images and ephemera from his personal collection that are featured in the volume. Ranging from portraits in her studio/apartment in college to self-portraits in the bucolic Colorado landscape in which she was raised, these works, which have never been published before, capture Woodman's hallmark approach to art-making: enigmatic, rigorous, and poignant. In her essay about this extraordinary group of images and ephemera, Abrams argues that these photographs afford a rare opportunity to see an artist in formation--in them we witness the artist as she worked through an idea in many iterations to arrive at a desired result. Abrams also concludes that, importantly, this unique archive humanizes Woodman and allows the viewer to see her in the fullness of her life--laughing with friends and collaborators, being playful, and feeling joy. Drew Sawyer's essay considers the heady years of the mid-1970s and photography's increasingly important role in contemporary art discourse of the time, when serious approaches to the medium were just starting to take hold. Sawyer deftly catalogues the critical texts of the day that chronicled the move away from documentary or 'straight' photography in artistic circles emerging at the time, which privileged more personal and experimental image-making. He places Woodman in the context of her peers - such as Ana Mendieta - and the important feminist debates that were defining the era.

Abstract

Anni Albers (1899-1994) was a textile designer, weaver, writer and printmaker, who was among the leading pioneers of twentieth-century modernism. Throughout her fruitful career she inspired a reconsideration of fabrics, both in their functional roles and as wall hangings, truly establishing thread and weaving as a valid medium for art. In her later years, Albers took up print-making, translating many of her persistent themes and ideas into two-dimensional form. But while Albers has been extremely influential for younger generations of artists and designers, her contribution to modernist art history has, until now, been rather overlooked. In 2018, a groundbreaking exhibition, together with this accompanying publication will present Albers's most important works to fully explore and redefine her contribution to twentieth-century art and design, and highlight Albers's significance as an artist in her own right, rather than alongside her husband Josef . Contextualising Albers's early career at the Bauhaus, and her teaching years at Black Mountain College, this beautifully illustrated book will showcase major commissioned works, wall hangings, designs for commercial use, drawings and studies, jewellery designed and made by Albers and a selection of her prints.

Abstract

Created in close collaboration with the artist, this volume offers an in-depth examination of twenty-five years of Rachel Harrison's room-sized installations, sculptures, drawings, photographs, and books through scholarly essays and a unique plate section. The essays cover topics ranging from the artist's earliest work to recent complex installations and sculptures, which often combine quotidian objects such as metal trash cans and with sculptural elements, including large painted concrete forms, that Harrison creates herself.

Abstract

The work of Martha Rosler is perennially incisive, provocative, political, and timely, exploring a range of issues from everyday life and the media to architecture and the built environment, especially as they affect women. Over her prolific career, Rosler has returned to themes of social justice, popular culture, food, gardens and the natural world, and the intersection of aesthetics and ethics. Martha Rosler: Irrespective is the only survey of the artist's vital and enduring work, examining it across media including photocollage, video and film, installation, actions, and books. In addition to a rich array of artworks, this book presents texts by distinguished critics and art historians, and a candid and insightful conversation with the artist. Through her interrogations of the Vietnam War, the War on Terror, feminism, gentrification, and other timely issues, Rosler has persistently bridged art and activism. This important catalogue comes at a moment when work like Rosler's has the power to inspire change.
