The 2013 Carnegie International at Carnegie Museum of Art celebrates art as play, experimentation, and dissonance, embracing difference over the standardization of cultural production. This major exhibition of new international art includes an experimental playground project, a display of the museum's postwar art collection, and a pioneering engagement with Pittsburgh, positioning the event at the forefront of contemporary art. Curated by Daniel Baumann, Dan Byers, and Tina Kukielski, the catalogue offers extensive background on the exhibition's components, featuring never-before-published images of projects and artworks. It includes an expanded artist section with original interviews and in-depth texts on specific works by 35 artists from 19 countries across Asia, North America, South America, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. Featured artists include Ei Arakawa/Henning Bohl, Phyllida Barlow, Yael Bartana, Sadie Benning, and many more, showcasing a diverse range of perspectives and practices. This comprehensive approach highlights the dynamic nature of contemporary art and its ability to challenge conventions and inspire dialogue.
