ISBN: 9783832192846 / Angielski / Twarda / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. -Some forty-odd years after Bruce Nauman began tweaking the conventions of studio practice and the hallowed persona of the 'artist-as-seer, '- Pamela M. Lee wrote in Artforum not long ago, -his station in postwar art history rests secure. His influence--whether through his affectless, task-based performances, his sculptural castings of negative space, or his intermedia mash-ups of language, video and noise--is everywhere apparent in contemporary art.- Indeed, from the American artist's early work in sculpture and video, made in the 1960s, through his famous spiral of neon letters...

In addition, her projects have simultaneously provoked and deflected intense curiosity about who could possibly want to publicly subject herself to such agonizing conditions: who, in short, is Marina Abramovic? In this revealing set of conversations--conducted in train...

Louise Bourgeois
ISBN: 9783775732277 / Angielski / Miękka / 143 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The recently deceased French-American sculptor Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) was one of the most important artists of the last century. Her fleshy blobs, skeletal spiders and the aggressive fragility of her work offered a new solution to the antagonism between the figurative and the abstract that had previously been part and parcel of modernism. Bourgeois herself provided a unique interpretive level to modern art through the uses she made of childhood trauma, family life and sexuality. This accessible study serves as both an ideal introduction to the central themes of the late artist's oeuvre...

In General Idea's system, there is one concept: Glamour; one operation:...
