Andy Warhol Retrospective

Since the late 1990s, internationally acclaimed artist Sarah SzE (b. 1969) has developed a signature visual language that challenges the static nature of sculpture. Sze draws from Modernist traditions of the found object, dismantling thein authority with dynamic constellations of materials that are charged with flux, transformation and fragility. Captured in this suspension, her immersive and intricate works question the value society places on objects and how objects ascribe meaning to the places and times we inhabit. Coinciding with the explosion of information of the 21st Century, Sze's work simultaneously models and navigates the ceaseless proliferation of information in contemporary life lier encyclopedic installations unfold like a series of experiments that construct intimate systems of order-precarious ecologies in which material conveys meaning and a sense of loss. Widely recognized for challenging the boundaries of painting, installation and architecture, Sze's sculptural practice ranges from slight gestures discovered in hidden spaces to expansive installations thst scale walls and colonize architectures. Sze represented the United States at the Venice Biennale in 2013, and was awarded a Macarthur Fellowship in 2003. She has exhibited in museums worldwide, and her works are held in the permanent collections of promirent institutions, including The Museum of Modern Art, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, The Fondation Carter, Paris, The Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Museum of Modern Art, Los Angeles Sze's work has been festured in The Whitney Biennial (2000), the Carnegie International (1999) and several international biennials, including Berlin (1998), Guangzhou (2015), Liverpool (2008), Lyon (2009), Sao Paulo (2002), and Venice (1999, 2013, and 2015) Sze has also created public works for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Walker Art Canton in Minneapolis, and the High Line in New York Sze was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and lives and works in New York In the Interview, Okwui Enwenor discusses with Sze her influences, motivations and the events that have defined her relationship with sculpture and architecture. Benjamin H.D Buchloh's Survey offers insight on the rich historical context and conceptual background out of which Sze's practice developed, while Laura Hoptman considers Sze's installation Triple Point in the Focus Artist's Choice presents excerpts, compiled by Sze, of work by authors who have informed her thinking.

Sarah Sze

Une monographie richement illustrée qui couvre toute la carrière de l'un des artistes contemporains les plus célèbres Au cours de ses 60 ans de carrière, Gerhard Richter (né en 1932) a utilisé la représentation et l'abstraction comme moyen de prendre en compte l'héritage, la mémoire collective et la sensibilité nationale de l'Allemagne post-seconde guerre mondiale, à la fois et termes très personnels. Ce livre au design élégant présente environ 100 de ses toiles-clés, des peintures photographiques créées au début des années 1960 aux portraits, en passant par des séries abstraites à grande échelle, ainsi que des oeuvres sélectionnées en verre. De nouveaux essais d'éminents spécialistes abordent divers thèmes : Sheena Wagstaff évalue l'importance conceptuelle de la technique de l'artiste ; Benjamin H. D. Buchloh discute des peintures poignantes de Birkenau (2014) ; Peter Geimer explore l'intérêt durable de l'artiste pour l'imagerie photographique ; Briony Fer compare les tableaux de famille de Richter aux genres et aux conventions de la peinture traditionnelle ; Brinda Kumar étudie l'engagement de l'artiste envers le paysage en tant que lieu de mémoire. André Rottmann examine l'impact de la randomisation et du hasard sur les oeuvres abstraites de Richter ; et Hal Foster examine les travaux de verre et de miroir. Comme le montre ce livre, les oeuvres riches et variées de Richter témoignent de la pertinence constante de la peinture dans l'art contemporain.
