129,00 kr.“Each of the thirty-nine tales of Alexander Kluge’s Cinema Stories combines fact and fiction, and they revolve around movie-making. The book compresses a lifetime of feeling, thought, and practice: Kluge-considered the father of New German Cinema-is an inventive wellspring of narrative notions. “The power of his pros,” as Small Press noted, “exudes the sort of pregnant richness one might find in the brief scenarios of unknown films.” Cinema Stories is a treasure trove of strikingly original writing and cinematic lore”

“(…) long-awaited biography of Alfred Jarry reconstructs a life both “ubuesque” and pataphysical. When Alfred Jarry died in 1907 at the age of thirty-four, he was a legendary figure in Paris—but this had more to do with his bohemian lifestyle and scandalous behavior than his literary achievements. A century later, Jarry is firmly established as one of the leading figures of the artistic avant-garde. Even so, most people today tend to think of Alfred Jarry only as the author of the play Ubu Roi, and of his life as a string of outlandish “ubuesque” anecdotes, often recounted with wild inaccuracy. In this first full-length critical biography of Jarry in English, Alastair Brotchie reconstructs the life of a man intent on inventing (and destroying) himself, not to mention his world, and the “philosophy” that defined their relation. Brotchie alternates chapters of biographical narrative with chapters that connect themes, obsessions, and undercurrents that relate to the life. The anecdotes remain, and are even augmented: Jarry’s assumption of the “ubuesque,” his inversions of everyday behavior (such as eating backward, from cheese to soup), his exploits with gun and bicycle, and his herculean feats of drinking. But Brotchie distinguishes between Jarry’s purposely playing the fool and deeper nonconformities that appear essential to his writing and his thought, both of which remain a vital subterranean influence to this day.”

The magazine as a museum or a folded exhibition on paper: Pist Protta made and designed by artists, and always edited by the same core of three artists sometimes with guests: Åse Eg Jørgensen, Jesper Fabricius and Jesper Rasmussen. Pist Protta has been published since 1981, and is being the oldest still ongoing visual art periodical in Scandinavia. Every publication is different from the others as regards the design and form, because with every issue there is often experiments with size, layout. paper quality, printing method, graphic effects, punch outs, fouldouts etc. in an attempt to create every number of the periodical with an original expression – or even as a work of art on its own. The content varies from very mixed issues with a lot of different material taken from visual art, litterature, cinema, music (and very often with inserts of original prints) to more thematic issues with a more homogeneous composition. Among the theme numbers there have been such publications about experimental cinema, experimental musical scores, concrete poetry, anamorphoses, hands, the white colour, Berlin, London, New York, interior installations, typography, text and landscape painting
Questionable if anything more interesting regarding to Artists Books, Avant Garde Art, Magazine Art etc ever was published in the Northern Hemisphere?!

Bazon Brock (b. 1936) is a German art theorist and critic, multi-media generalist and artist. He is considered a member of Fluxus. In the 1960s, Brock participated in happenings with Friedensreich Hundertwasser, Joseph Beuys and Wolf Vostell. In a 1968 exhibition, he showed a metal plate in the style of a high-voltage warning: “death must be abolished, this damned mess must stop. He who speaks a word of consolation is a traitor” (“der Tod muß abgeschafft werden, diese verdammte Schweinerei muß aufhören. Wer ein Wort des Trostes spricht, ist ein Verräter”) and signed Bazon Brock. The text is a truncated version of his eulogy for Siegfried Kracauer, which continued, “betrays the solidarity of all human beings against death … Death … is a scandal, a beastly mess! … Don’t let yourselves submit to it, understand death … [is] a monstrous scandal, against which I protest.”) (“ist ein Verräter an der Solidarität aller Menschen gegen den Tod … Der Tod ist ein Skandal, eine viehische Schweinerei! … Lasst euch nicht darauf ein, versteht: der Tod … [ist] ein ungeheuerlicher Skandal, gegen den ich protestiere.”). Also in 1968, Brock installed a “Besucherschule” (visitors’ school) at documenta IV, introducing exhibition visitors to contemporary art in several hours of “action teaching”. The device was repeated several times until 1992

The Phaidon re-release with the life and work of Italian architect and designer Ettore Sottsass. The designer’s work is popular and influential in equal measure, from his designs for Olivetti (such as the striking, bright red, manual typewriter, the Valentine, with its ingenious carry-case) to the post-modern brilliance of the work of the Memphis Group, founded by Sottsass in Milan in 1980. Packed with beautiful images taken from the extensive Sottsass archives and including drawings and sketches from the designer’s countless sketchbooks, the book explores his entire career from the 1940s to the 2000s, covering everything from his architectural projects and product design to his ceramics, sculpture, and graphics.

300,00 kr.Louise Bourgeois, who has produced art since the 1930s, began in the 1990s to use her clothes and the clothes of her loved ones as components in her sculptures and drawings. It is as much a reincarnation of her past and her childhood as a confirmation of her relationship with memory. Her visual approach to fabrics transforms decorative accessories into emotional and personal references which, especially in her Cells and later in her drawings, create representations of a tormented and at the same time powerful womanhood. Further development of the artist’s work began in 2002: exploiting the iridescent colours and formal structural properties of pieces of her clothing, she created “The Fabric Drawings,” astonishing works alternating between floral figurative pieces and chromatic abstractions. This set of images is collected here in its entirety for the first time, constituting the closest thing yet to a general catalogue.

“Known to his contemporaries primarily as an art critic, but ambitious to secure a more lasting literary legacy, Charles Baudelaire, a Parisian bohemian, spent much of the 1840s composing gritty, often perverse, poems that expressed his disgust with the banality of modern city life. First published in 1857, the book that collected these poems together, Les Fleurs du mal, was an instant sensation―earning Baudelaire plaudits and, simultaneously, disrepute. Only a year after Gustave Flaubert had endured his own public trial for published indecency (for Madame Bovary), a French court declared Les Fleurs du mal an offense against public morals and six poems within it were immediately suppressed (a ruling that would not be reversed until 1949, nearly a century after Baudelaire’s untimely death). Subsequent editions expanded on the original, including new poems that have since been recognized as Baudelaire’s masterpieces, producing a body of work that stands as the most consequential, controversial, and influential book of poetry from the nineteenth century. Acclaimed translator and poet Aaron Poochigian tackles this revolutionary text with an ear attuned to Baudelaire’s lyrical innovations―rendering them in “an assertive blend of full and slant rhymes and fluent iambs” (A. E. Stallings)―and an intuitive feel for the work’s dark and brooding mood. Poochigian’s version captures the incantatory, almost magical, effect of the original―reanimating for today’s reader Baudelaire’s “unfailing vision” that “trumpeted the space and light of the future” (Patti Smith). An introduction by Dana Gioia offers a probing reassessment of the supreme artistry of Baudelaire’s masterpiece, and an afterword by Daniel Handler explores its continued relevance and appeal. Featuring the poems in English and French, this deluxe dual-language edition allows readers to commune both with the original poems and with these electric, revelatory translations”

“Robert Walser wrote many of his manuscripts in a highly enigmatic, shrunken-down form. These narrow strips of paper (many of them written during his hospitalization in the Waldau sanatorium) covered with tiny ant-like markings only a millimeter or two high, came to light only after the author’s death in 1956. At first considered a secret code, the microscripts were eventually discovered to be a radically miniaturized form of a Germanic script: a whole story could fit on the back of a business card. Selected from the six-volume German transcriptions from the original microscripts, these twenty-five short pieces are gathered in this gorgeously illustrated co-publication with the Christine Burgin Gallery. Each microscript is reproduced in full color in its original form: the detached cover of a trashy crime novel, a disappointing letter, a receipt of payment. Sometimes Walser used the pages of small tear-off calendars (but only after cutting them lengthwise and filling up each half with text). Schnapps, rotten husbands, small town life, the radio, pigs (and how none of us can deny being one), jealousy, Van Gogh and marriage proposals are some of Walser’s subjects. These texts take strength from Walser’s motto: “To be small and to stay small.””.

“Finnegans Wake is the most bookish of all books. John Bishop has described it as ‘the single most intentionally crafted literary artefact that our culture has produced’. In its original format, however, the book has been beset by numerous imperfections occasioned by the confusion of its seventeen-year composition. Only today, by restoring to our view the author’s intentions in a physical book designed, printed and bound to the highest standards of the printers’ art, can the editors reveal in true detail James Joyce’s fourth, and last, masterwork. This edition is the summation of thirty years’ intense engagement by textual scholars Danis Rose and John O’Hanlon verifying, codifying, collating and clarifying the 20,000 pages of notes, drafts, typescripts and proofs comprising James Joyce’s ‘litters from aloft, like a waast wizzard all of whirlwords’ (fw2, 14.16-17). The new reading text of Finnegans Wake, typographically re-set for the first time in its publishing history, incorporates some 9000 minor yet crucial corrections and amendments, covering punctuation marks, font choice, spacing, misspellings, misplaced phrases and ruptured syntax. Although individually minor, these changes are nonetheless crucial in that they facilitate a smooth reading of the book’s allusive density and essential fabric”.

The punk movement of the 1970s to early 1980s is examined as an art movement through archive research, interviews, and art historical analysis. It is about pop, pain, poetry, presence, and about a ‘no future’ generation refusing to be the next artworld avant-garde, instead choosing to be the ‘rear-guard’

“appropriation of similes, once strictly the providence of kitsch, has nothing to do with blurring the distinctions between high and low. Instead, rainbows and butterflies have come to symbolize a magical new world where order is without hierarchies, edification is without snobbishness, prosperity is without greed, and most importantly, where imagination and consumption are exceedingly valued. This is the world of Rob Pruitt. Pruitt acts as a conduit, shuffling images from mass culture to high art production. He also subscribes to the empowering and inventive ‘do-it-yourself’ attitude of visual design and art making”

“The true success of the work is that while Sassen successfully creates an imaginary Africa that is clearly deeply desired by the West, once in it, there’s a tension that doesn’t allow the viewer to relax or want to stay very long. This is a play and tension that needs a book to unfold, and that isn’t evident in her luscious individual prints”

Originally published as a magazine by The Portola Institute starting in 1970 and intended for teachers and parents and subtitled ‘Resources for Our Education’, Big Rock Candy Mountain billed itself as “A Learning to Learn Catalog”, directly inspired by the Whole Earth Catalog. It shared the same publisher and borrowed its format, but featured more in-depth articles .Like the Whole Earth Catalog, its content is divided into sections, among them ‘Process Learning’, ‘Educational Environments’, and ‘Self Discovery’, each one listing books, educational tools and other products, along with details of their availability (some of them, unlike the Whole Earth Catalog, were sold directly by BRCM mail order. The nonprofit Portola Institute was founded in Menlo Park in 1966 by Dick Raymond, Bob Albrecht and others as an educational forum and helped develop a number of influential Bay Area organisations and publications, including Albrecht’s People’s Computer Company, the Whole Earth Catalog and Big Rock Candy Mountain

Encompassing canonical works such as Yves Klein’s Zones of Immaterial Pictorial Sensibility (1958), Seth Siegelaub’s Artist’s Contract (1971), and Lee Lozano’s Strike Piece (1969) — as well as innovative and rarely-documented works like Keith Obadike’s Blackness for Sale (2001), Kelly Mark’s In & Out (1997-ongoing until 2032), and Ben Kinmont’s Sometimes a Nicer Sculpture Is to Be Able to Provide a Living for Your Family (1998-ongoing) — Commerce by Artists is a comprehensive document of artworks that take the form of transactions and exchanges of value”

“Josef Albers’ rigorous investigations into color have had a decisive effect on art in the twentieth century and beyond. His teaching posts at the Bauhaus, Black Mountain College and Yale enabled him to bequeath his theories to several generations of artists and designers, from Max Bill and Mark Rothko to Eva Hesse and Ray Johnson. Published for an exhibition at the Morgan library, and with an abundance of previously uncollected works, this volume unveils the full bounty of Albers’ works on paper: lithographs, linocuts, woodcuts, screenprints and etchings. Since the prints lack the just-visible brushwork of Albers’ paintings, allowing color to emerge without surface blemish, some have argued that they constitute a more effective illustration of his color theory”

Using an eclectic range of objects and elements including used furniture, outdated electric appliances, electronic materials, light and the appropriated work of other artists, Haroon Mirza creates complex audio installations which investigate the moment where noise becomes music. Mirza describes the works in this exhibition as ‘unfolding compositions in time’ with each installation generating a seemingly cyclical and distinct field of sound often in the same tempo and key. Together they combine to form a larger musical composition throughout the gallery. The viewer therefore experiences the individual works as autonomously active objects and yet the whole exhibition becomes a live group performance and unified installation Published on the occasion of the solo exhibition at Lisson Gallery, London, 2011

“The Body as Language” or “Body-art” and Performance” was immediately a huge hit, reviewed by some of the most influential art historians and writers (Giulio C. Argan, Edoardo Sanguineti, Max Kozloff, Lucy Lippard, François Pluchart, Peter Gorsen, Evelyn Weiss and many others) and is today considered a major classic. – A direct testimony of the birth and development of one of the most controversial art trends, Lea Vergine’s book avails of a series of texts by the artists themselves, whom the author had asked to contribute with a statement about the illustrations of their work. Featuring a thorough documentation of original photographs and film photograms, videotapes, happenings, actions and performances, the book analyses the evolution of this phenomenon through the works of artists who have worked with and on the body.

“Lunch for a Landscape encapsulates Kirsten Justesen’s interest in Body art with a feminist focus. After graduating from art school in 1975, she was a young mother whose studio was “between the kitchen and the nursery.” She began using her own body to make art, creating drawings, photographs, and plaster casts of it. The photograph is part of a series of critical but humorous images Justesen created called Husmor Billeder, or Housewife Pictures. She posed for this image, noting, “A housewife is on her way in the vehicle of her life.” The Housewife Pictures were printed as posters and appeared in women’s magazines and art literature. Justesen described the context for this work: “I made this when I was raising two small boys, breastfeeding the baby, and also living as a spouse in a foreign country [Canada]. I describe my life then as a daily ‘housewife ballet.’ I was planning for my first large solo exhibition in Copenhagen in spring 1975.” Lunch for a Landscape became the publicity poster for the exhibition”

This book presents a collection of 200 black and white photographs and 100 lines of words gathered by the artist spanning the years from 1968 to 1989. The images were captured as entries in a photographic sketchbook and are represents in pairs that demonstrate visual congruities in form and shading. Opposite the photographs, textual phrases appear in Danish, Icelandic, English, and Swedish. The words have lodged themselves in the artist’s consciousness after appearing in newspapers, in conversations and on TV, rearranging themselves over time. Influenced by Alison Knowles’ work The Big Book, which was conceived as a locus for contemplating personal evolutions, this book maps out the circuitous development of memory over time. The translations from Danish into other languages are by Alison Knowles, Anna Sjödahl, and Rúrí

“Hugo Balls legendariske roman Fantasten Tenderenda er skrevet i tidsrummet 1914-20. Romanen, som man i mange år kun kendte af omtale, blev endelig udgivet i 1967. Hugo Ball (1886-1927) er en af dadaismens forgrundsfigurer og medstifter af Cabaret Voltaire i Zürich 1916-17. Han var virksom inden for teater og skønlitteratur, men deltog også i den politiske og religiøse debat. Blandt hans værker kan nævnes Die Flucht aus der Zeit og Herman Hesse. Sein Leben und sein Werk (begge: 1927). Fantasten Tenderenda er Hugo Balls dadaistiske hovedværk, en farverig collage af tekster, der på ingen måde lever op til den almindelige forestilling om en roman, med en fremadskridende handling etc., men som bryder med alle vedtagne konventioner. Ikke desto mindre er den fyldt med allusioner til den klassiske litteratur, fra Cervantes og Goethe til Baudelaire og Nietzsche. Bogens forfatter har tydeligvis erfaringer inden for teateret, dens kapitler kan opfattes som små scenerum for fantastiske skuespil, der udspiller sig i forskellige genrer, i digt- eller prosaform. Flere af teksterne uropførte Hugo Ball i Cabaret Voltaire, og et enkelt stykke blev offentliggjort i 1916 i antologien Cabaret Voltaire . I et dagbogsblad fra 15.7. 1920 meddeler han, at han har færdiggjort den ”fantastiske roman”. Fantasten Tenderenda er en af de vigtigste bøger fra tiden omkring Første Verdenskrig (som paradoksalt nok først udkom med et halvt århundredes forsinkelse). Bogens satire og skarpe civilisationskritik er stadig aktuel, og som historisk dokument er den af største vigtighed – på linje med værker af Tristan Tzara og Hans Arp”

Powers was inspired to write the work while teaching at Stanford University, after he encountered giant redwood trees for the first time. Patricia Westerford, one of the novel’s central characters, was heavily inspired by the life and work of forest ecologist Suzanne Simard. Westerford pens the fictional novel The Secret Forest, whose title mirrors other popular texts such as The Hidden Life of Trees: What They Feel, How They Communicate – Discoveries from a Secret World by German forester Peter Wohlleben, The Secret Life of Trees by British science writer Colin Tudge, and Finding the Mother Tree by Simard”

The first book bringing together Mike Kelley’s autobiographic works since 1995, and offering an overview of the development of Kelley’s practice. In 1995, Mike Kelley realized “Educational Complex,” a model of the school he attended and the house where he grew up. The blind spots of the model represent forgotten zones, and are interpreted as symbolic places of “institutional” abuse. For Kelley, this work thus marks the beginning of a series of projects where autobiography, memory, and the reinterpretation of previous pieces become the privileged instruments in a poetic deconstruction of the structures and systems initiated at the end of the 1970s. Each project is extensively documented by artist’s texts and reference material

Edited by Walter Robinson and Joshua Cohn, Art-Rite was published in New York City between 1973 and 1978.
