Curator and historian, gallerist and writer: Klaus Kertess has long been a decisive and forward-thinking presence in the art world. He founded the Bykert Gallery in 1966, where he represented artists including Chuck Close, Ralph Humphrey, Brice Marden and Dorothea Rockburne; three decades later, he curated the 1995 Whitney Biennial, the follow-up to the famously political 1993 iteration. -What is being proposed here, - he wrote in a catalogue essay for the 1995 exhibition, -is not a return to formalism but an art in which meaning is embedded in formal value. An acknowledgment of sensuousness...

Rescuing The Future
ISBN: 9781451544039 / Angielski / Miękka / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We have heard from politicians, from lawyers, experts in finance, indeed from experts in just about everything. We have not had an analysis from someone trained simply to think. In this powerful insight into today's problems, we have just that. Prof. Benedict Freedman received his Ph. D. in mathematical logic at UCLA. He begins by asking us to listen to Einstein: "In the twentieth century everything has changed except our way of thinking." That is key. Much of our thinking, Prof. Freedman claims, was formulated when our brains were in the prehistoric stage of development. Many values...

Cloning Terror: The War of Images, 9/11 to the Present
ISBN: 9780226532608 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The phrase "War on Terror" has quietly been retired from official usage, but it persists in the American psyche, and our understanding of it is hardly complete. Nor will it be, W. J. T Mitchell argues, without a grasp of the images that it spawned, and that spawned it. Exploring the role of verbal and visual images in the War on Terror, Mitchell finds a conflict whose shaky metaphoric and imaginary conception has created its own reality. At the same time, Mitchell locates in the concept of clones and cloning an anxiety about new forms of image-making that has amplified the political...

The Real Real Thing: The Model in the Mirror of Art
ISBN: 9780226772196 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Our era is defined by the model. From Victoria's Secret and America's Next Top Model to the snapshots we post on Facebook and Twitter, our culture is fixated on the pose, the state of existing simultaneously as artifice and the real thing. In this bold view of contemporary culture, Wendy Steiner shows us the very meaning of the arts in the process of transformation. Her story begins at the turn of the last century, as the arts abandoned the representation of the world for a heady embrace of the abstract, the surreal, and the self-referential. Today though, this "separate... Our era is defined by the model. From Victoria's Secret and America's Next Top Model to the snapshots we post on Facebook and Twitter, our c... |

Genealogy and Ontology of the Western Image and its Digital Future
ISBN: 9780415887151 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. With the emerging dominance of digital technology, the time is ripe to reconsider the nature of the image. Some say that there is no longer a phenomenal image, only disembodied information (0-1) waiting to be configured. For photography, this implies that a faith in the principle of an evidential force -- of the impossibility of doubting that the subject was before the lens -- is no longer plausible. Technologically speaking, we have arrived at a point where the manipulation of the image is an ever-present possibility, when once it was difficult, if not impossible. What are the key moments in...

Dialectical Passions: Negation in Postwar Art Theory
ISBN: 9780231149389 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Representing a new generation of theorists reaffirming the radical dimensions of art, Gail Day launches a bold critique of late twentieth-century art theory and its often reductive analysis of cultural objects. Exploring core debates in discourses on art, from the New Left to theories of "critical postmodernism" and beyond, Day counters the belief that recent tendencies in art fail to be adequately critical. She also challenges the political inertia that results from these conclusions. Day organizes her defense around critics who have engaged substantively with emancipatory thought and...
