Lawrence Weiner Bücher

In dieser Ausgabe wird die Idee des Objekts in den Arbeiten zweier Künstler untersucht, die auffallend unterschiedliche, aber subtil ähnliche Ansätze zu den Vermächtnissen des Minimalismus und des Konzeptualismus verfolgen. Seit den 1960er Jahren hinterfragt Lawrence Weiner die künstlerische Autorität und Originalität und meidet Bilder zugunsten einer Kunst, die vollständig aus Sprache besteht. Die Preisträgerin des renommierten Turner Prize 1994, Rachel Whiteread, verlässt sich auf die einfallsreichen Assoziationen ihres Publikums und konstruiert eine Welt, in der Objekte in Bezug auf Abwesenheiten beschrieben werden. Auch in dieser Ausgabe: Vince Leo über Robert Frank; INSERT von Nan Goldin. Zu den Mitwirkenden gehören Simon Watney, Trevor Fairbrother, Lane Relya, Daniela Salvioni, Brook Adams, Neville Wakefield und weitere.

Lawrence Weiner's art uses language in reference to materials. Language itself is a material and at the same time a means of presentation of his work. Weiner evolved this approach in the context of the Conceptual art of the late 60s, yet he does not see his own work as "conceptual." The "space" he works within is the entire cultural context, and his works are associated with various different media and forms of presentation: books, posters, videos, films, records, drawings, multiples, installations indoors and outdoors, and more. Since his earliest days as a professional artist, Weiner has given written and verbal expression to questions concerning his work and its context. These utterances--statements, interviews, lectures and conference contributions--have been collected together in this publication for the first time, and ordered chronologically. Taken as a whole they afford an insight both into a complex individual biography and into the wider development of art and culture and the challenge that this entails.

Featuring an introductory essay by exhibition curator Grant Arnold--who has worked with the Lawrence Weiner Poster Archive since the mid-1990s--and short commissioned texts from artists, scholars and curators who worked closely with Weiner over the course of his career, OF & ABOUT POSTERS: THE LAWRENCE WEINER POSTER ARCHIVE (1965-2021) AT THE VANCOUVER ART GALLERY will be the definitive text on this central aspect of the artist's production. Lawrence Weiner is considered one of the foremost conceptual artists worldwide. Over the past half-century, his work has been conveyed in language. The posters, which are a fundamental part of his practice and are designed by the artist himself, have appeared as promotions for exhibitions as well as works in and of themselves. This publication will include a full presentation of the Lawrence Weiner Poster Archive, consisting of more than 250 posters from the collection of the Vancouver Art Gallery; together they convey the evolution of Weiner's work over a period spanning more than 50 years.

Mit der Édition Séparée ist eine Reihe entstanden, die es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht hat, Künstlern die Möglichkeit zu geben, authentische Beiträge zur Tradition des Künstlerbuches zu realisieren. Ohne jede kunstwissenschaftliche Erklärung oder Interpretation enthaltenen die einzelnen Nummern dieser Reihe nur das, was der Künstler realisieren wollte. Textbeiträge stammen entweder vom Künstler selbst oder von von ihm ausgewählten Autoren. Dabei wird Wert darauf gelegt, daß diese Texte den Künstlerbeitrag begleiten und ergänzen, sich aber nicht interpretierend einmischen. Die während des ersten Jahres entstandenen Ausgaben präsentieren Originalbeiträge aus den Bereichen Fotografie, Theorie, Typographie, Zeichnung und elektronischer Bildbearbeitung. Diese von Reiner Speck und Gerhard Theewen herausgegebene Künstlerbuch-Reihe stellt in schneller Abfolge speziell für diese Reihe entstandene, manchmal durch Texte ergänzte Beiträge zeitgenössischer Künstler vor. Es empfiehlt sich die Bestellung zur Fortsetzung! Zu jeder Nummer erscheint eine Vorzugsausgabe mit einer Beilage (Unikatcharakter) im Schuber: Auflage 50, DM 200.

As part of the 54th International Art Exhibition- la Biennale di Venezia, Personal Structures showcases 28 artists from 12 countries across 5 continents. This exhibition, held in 24 rooms at the prestigious Palazzo Bembo near the Rialto Bridge, features a mix of established and lesser-known artists united by their exploration of Time, Space, and Existence. Curated by Karlyn De Jongh and Sarah Gold, each room is dedicated to a single artist, creating a unique atmosphere through their strong statements. The diverse range of artistic media includes videos, sculptures, paintings, photographs, light installations, wallpaper, and performance art. Personal Structures is part of an international art project initiated in 2002 by Dutch artist Rene Rietmeyer, who recognized that artists worldwide engage with these themes in deeply personal ways. This insight inspired the creation of publications, exhibitions, and symposia to bring these artists together. Each artwork presented is either site-specific or drawn from the artist's studio, emphasizing the contemporary relevance of their work.
