Francis Alÿs, A story of deception

Tells the story behind the latest major new work in a series that has transformed perceptions of contemporary art Since Tate Modern opened in 2000, the Turbine Hall has hosted some of the world's most memorable and acclaimed works of contemporary art, reaching an audience of millions each year. The way artists have interpreted this vast industrial space has revolutionised public awareness of contemporary art. The annual Hyundai Commission gives artists an opportunity to create new work for this unique context.

For the 2021 Hyundai Commission, Anicka Yi will create her largest and most ambitious project to date. Born in South Korea and now living and working in New York, Yi is a conceptual artist known for installations that engage the senses, especially the sense of smell, and for her collaborations with biologists and chemists. In previous artworks she has used an astonishing array of materials and scents to explore questions of technology, identity and labour. Her work draws from the research of philosophers who are concerned with emerging forms of life and intelligence, while also addressing questions around migration, class and gender.

Made in collaboration with the artist, the publication includes an enlightening interview about the commission, a section in which Yi poses intriguing questions to leading thinkers and experts from the many fields that have influenced her thinking, and a specially commissioned short story by writer Elvia Wilk. This is the latest volume in a major series that explores the conception and creation of each commission as well as offering an overview of in the artist's work and career leading up to the latest ground-breaking installation.

European law, including both civil law and common law, has gone through several major phases of expansion in the world. European legal history thus also is a history of legal transplants and cultural borrowings, which national legal histories as products of nineteenth-century historicism have until recently largely left unconsidered. The Oxford Handbook of European Legal History supplies its readers with an overview of the different phases of European legal history in the light of today's state-of-the-art research, by offering cutting-edge views on research questions currently emerging in international discussions. The Handbook takes a broad approach to its subject matter both nationally and systemically. Unlike traditional European legal histories, which tend to concentrate on "heartlands" of Europe (notably Italy and Germany), the Europe of the Handbook is more versatile and nuanced, taking into consideration the legal developments in Europe's geographical and cultural "fringes" such as Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, and the Americas.

Gerhard Richter (né en 1932) est unanimement considéré comme l'un des plus importants peintres encore en activité et a exposé dans les plus grandes institutions du monde.

Connu tant pour ses tableaux figuratifs inspirés de la photographie que pour ses peintures abstraites, Richter associe de manière inédite des éléments empruntés à ses deux champs artistiques.

Publié à l'occasion de la vaste exposition rétrospective Gerhard Richter, fruit d'une collaboration entre la Tate Modern à Londres et la Nationalgalerie, Staatliche Museen à Berlin et le Centre Pompidou à Paris, ce catalogue embrasse toute la carrière de l'artiste allemand. Réunissant les contributions de conservateurs et d'historiens de l'art, un nouvel entretien avec l'artiste et près de 300 reproductions, il constitue l'ouvrage le plus complet sur l'oeuvre exceptionnelle de Richter.
