"Absurd Thinking: Between Art and Design is a survey of work by artist/architect Allan Wexler. The book features projects developed across the artist's forty-five-year career that mediate the gap between fine and applied art using the mediums of architecture, sculpture, photography, painting, and drawing. Wexler's works can be broadly described as tactile poetry composed by re-framing the ordinary. They sustain a narrative about landscape, nature, and the built environment that highlights the intriguing and surprising characteristics latent in the elements and rituals that pervade daily life. Wexler's work is sometimes functional sometimes theoretical, and often a hybrid of the two. In all cases, it demonstrates a commitment to re-evaluating basic assumptions about the human relationship to the built and natural environments. Organized thematically across four categories—Abstraction, Landscape, Private Space and Public Places—this book is a richly illustrated cross-section of Wexler's multi-scale, multi-media work featuring his own writings, narratives and reflections"--Publisher's description.

Katalog der Ausstellung zum Thema Utopie im Wilhelm-Hack-Museum in Ludwigshafen. Die Ausstellung entstand in der Anlehnung an das Hauptwerk des in Ludwigshafen geborenen Philosophen E. Block und trägt den Titel "Apokalypse - ein Prinzip Hoffnung?". Für die Einführung in das Thema bietet der Katalog einen Beitrag zur Geschichte der künstlerischen Utopien vom Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart und einen zum "Utopischen" im Ernst Blochs Werk "Das Prinzip Hoffnung" an. Im Hauptteil stellt er zeitgenössische künstlerische Positionen zum Thema vor, geteilt in 5 Blöcke (Natur, Mensch, Alltag, Architektur, Kosmos). Neben den bekannten Künstlernamen wie z.B. Kazuo Katase oder Chris Cunningham findet man viele weniger bzw. wenig bekannte. Ganzseitige farbige Werkabbildungen und erläuternde Texte zu einzelnen künstlerischen Positionen bilden den Kern des Kataloges. Im Anhang kurze Künstlerbiografien. (3) (LK/DD: Springmann)
