In his thirty years' career Gabriele Basilico has been able to impose his incisive documentary view in the worldwide overview of the architectural and landscape photography. Basilico explores architecture mostly representing urban scenes: panoramic shoots over the city alternate with shoots upon details. The Fondazione Ragghianti dedicates to Basilico this specially created show, where photographs of the most important steps of his production are collected: from the factories' portraits in Milan of early eighties to the works on Naples, Paris, New York, Beirut and Berlin. Some photos of Lucca's urban and natural landscape, expressly made by Basilico for the occasion, are present in the show. Works by eight young photographers, proposed by Basilico, and invited to present their own researches are shown in the exhibition and published in catalogue. The exhibition is presented in the catalogue by a Vittorio Fagone's essay and by texts by Gabriele Basilico and Francesco Zanot. Text: Fagone Vittorio.cm… Leer más

Parkett, Zürich, 2007. paperback. fine. Parkett 78features the artists Ernesto Neto, Olaf Nicolai and Rebecca Warren. Neto's drooping, opaque lycra installations envelop the viewer in a fog of fabric, a cushion for the gaze, their milky skins leaving children ecstatic and adults in a Fredric Jamesonian "Hyperspace." Olaf Nicolai's concept-driven art, like much of the avant-garde work of the last half-century, remains set on integrating art with daily life. We experience this "blurring" in his randomly arranged pre-fabricated Pantone colors, ornamental stones taken from a 1960s Dresden shopping mall and wall text reading, "A short catalogue of things that you think you want " Rebecca Warren makes vulgar, lumpy plasticine figures that show the influence of Giacometti and R. Crumb alike. As Neal Brown writes, her figures are, "fingered and improperly squeezed into something that is… Leer más

Spector Books, Leipzig, 2010. paperback. fine. Olaf Nicolai präsentiert 80 Fotografien, die den vom Blitzlicht seiner Kamera erhellten Boden vor seinen Füßen zeigen. So markiert der in der Dunkelheit kaum Sehende seinen Weg mit den kurzen Lichtblitzen eines Fotoapparates, als er sich durch das Death Valley vorantastet. Sie erleuchten jeweils wenige Zentimeter Boden, ein winziges Detail der Landschaft, deren Wüstencharakter, die Lebensfeindlichkeit ihrer brennenden Hitze und des gleißenden Tageslichts bekannt ist. Die Fotos weisen vor allem auf das unheimliche Dunkel der Nacht hin, die kein künstliches Licht erhellt.

Hatje Cantz Verlag, Ostfildern, 2002. fine. Olaf Nicolai questions the processes of perception in order to elicit a different kind of reception. "Questions of form, moods, attitudes and style are not just vain play with surfaces. They are questions of [the] organizational forms of activities," he explains. In his works, Nicolai displays attitudes and styles, combining and collecting them. He integrates classical artistic techniques and the act of collecting; he secures evidence and constructs archives as the activities of his artistic production. His surprising, often overwhelming installations combine current questions of the natural sciences and the liberal arts with conceptual works that refer to biology, architecture, aesthetics, iconography, history, and the general processes of civilization and urban life. Focused on the construction and exploration of new aesthetic contexts, Nicolai's work often reflects the difference between nature and art, or naturalness and artificiality.… Leer más

Buchhandlung Walther König, Köln, 2001. paperback. fine. Olafur Eliasson belongs to the generation of artists who spent the 90s exploring and expanding the boundaries between art, science, and nature, and their subjective and objective perception.

Essays by Olafur Eliasson, Marianne Krogh Jensen, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Andreas Spiegl, Rudolf Sagmeister.

Bloomsbury,New York, 2008. hardcover. fine. Calling up images of Mao Tse-tung and Che Guevara, Reynolds advocates for the guerrilla gardening movement with a handbook exhibiting an inquisitive nature, social concern, and an international perspective. The focus is on illicit activities, as Reynolds dismisses any gardening taking place with consent. He sets the tone with examples of his own efforts in London, and similar endeavors reaching from Milan to Chicago to Singapore, where individuals are inspired to enhance their communities by reclaiming garbage-strewn vacant lots, empty flower boxes, and neglected street-side strips of dirt. In tracing the history of the guerrilla gardening movement, be it for beautification or to grow food, Reynolds voice is ardent as he writes about Johnny Appleseed and the Digger colonies that provided sustenance in seventeenth-century England. Reynolds is most assured when advising readers on choosing specimens for planting their own guerrilla gardens and when… Leer más
