No priority/air, except by special arrangement. "Surrealism in its late phase often abandoned neutral exhibition spaces in favor of environments that embodied subjective ideologies. These exhibitions offered startled viewers an early version of installation art before the form existed as such. In Displaying the Marvelous, Lewis Kachur explores this development by analyzing three elaborate Surrealist installations created between 1938 and 1942. The first two, the 'Exposition Internationale du Surrealisme' (1938) and the 'Dream of Venus' at the New York World's Fair (1939), dealt with the fetishization of the female body. The third, 'First Papers of Surrealism' (1942), focused not on the figure but on the entire expanse of the exhibition space, thus contributing to the development of nonfigurative art… Leer más

No priority/air, except by special arrangement. "American video and installation artist Doug Aitken exploded on the international art scene with his multi-screen work 'electric earth,' which captivated audiences at the Venice and Whitney Biennales. This work focused on the bizarre nocturnal experiences of a young man exploring the edges of Los Angeles, presenting dream-like sequences which rearrange the linear flow of narrative into a series of unforgettable, disjointed photographic tableaux. Like much of his work, it contrasts the high-tech speed of contemporary daily life with the monotony of the urban landscape. In subsequent work set in distant places, from the island of Montserrat to the jungles of Guyana, Aitken creates unexpected yet beautiful imagery which encircles the viewer and creates a suspended, hyper-real portrait… Leer más

Cambridge, MA: MIT Press; An October Book, 2009. x, 204 pages, illustrations; 23 cm. Near fine. Tight, clean copy. Remainder mark/tail edge. "Gabriel Orozco's work is sometimes considered uncategorizable; but his sculpture, photography, drawing, collage, and installations are unified by their devotion to the antispectacular, to the everyday, and to the explorations of complexities that are not immediately obvious. Orozco (born in Mexico in 1962) pays meticulous attention to what he calls the 'liquidity of things' as seen in mundane and evanescent objects and elements of everyday life--the momentary fog on a polished piano top, a deflated football, tins of cat food balanced on watermelons, light through leaves, the screech of a tire, chess pieces on a chessboard. 'People forget that I want to disappoint,' he has said. 'I use that word deliberately. I want to disappoint the expectations of the one who waits to be amazed. When you make a decision someone is going to be… Leer más
