"Following the 2010 exhibition at Gagosian Gallery Beverly Hills, this magnificent set of slipcased books captures the grandness and lushness of the epic photographs of Andreas Gursky, one of the world’s greatest living photographers. In these new works, Gursky demonstrates that a photographer can make or construct--rather than simply take--photographs about modern life and produce them on the scale of epic painting. Just as history pai ..."
"Famed worldwide for his epically-proportioned photographs, Andreas Gursky is one of very few contemporary artists able to represent cultures of excessive information--which he does through images of supermarket wares, crowds, trash, architecture and nature. The extreme detail of Gursky's final image--achieved by digital restructuring--produces a vertiginous effect on the viewer, as it oscillates between total representation and total ab ..."
"This phonebook-sized survey of current contemporary art is the world's first look at the collection of the brand-new Museum of Contemporary Art of Castilla and LeAn, in Spain. MUSAC's stated mission is to serve as a museum of the present, an ever-changing art environment in a "living space that opens the door to a wide range of contemporary artistic expressions... a series of game boards on which action is the leading player." The museu ..."
" The art of the 20th century can be understood fully only from a perspective that ignores boundaries between countries and continents. Werner Spies (b. 1937), teacher, critic, curator of major international exhibitions, and close friend to many major artists, has always had an open eye and mind. His critical appraisals of trends in both Europe and the United States continue to stimulate art lovers around the globe. Spies's collected wri ..."
"Our image of the world, our conduct and our thinking is to an increasing degree influenced and determined by visual media. Each day presents an ever larger amount of images and media messages to process--to cope, we develop mental filters that exclude unwanted visual impressions. Breaking these mental filters necessitates constantly new and unexpected media strategies, most recently the use of techniques geared to the immersion of the v ..."
""In all eras there have been artists who have aspired to encyclopedic summation of the world, to find a form to accommodate the mess," as Samuel Beckett once put it. The Renaissance marked the juncture at which it became impossible for any one person to have read every book in existence (just as books became widely available for the first time, ironically); today it would be a feat even to count the number of toothpastes in your average ..."
"Andreas Gursky (born 1955) has ranked for many years among the world's leading photographic artists. First published in 2008 and quickly going out of print, Works 80-08 unfurls the artist's oeuvre in all its encyclopedic glory. Gursky selected over 150 images from his archive of photographs especially for this publication, reaching back in time to his student days at the Folkwang Hochschule Essen, and then to his formative studies with ..."
"Awarding-winning photographer Tim Flach has built an exceptional reputation for creating compelling images of animals that captivate and enthrall photography buffs and animal lovers alike. His commissions include such world-renowned publications as National Geographic and The Sunday Times. He combines artistic originality with an intuitive genius for capturing every creature's distinctive quirks and traits. As he puts it himself, his wo ..."
"Description: M City inquires into medium sized European cities through a mix of hematically defined sections (Mapping, Shopping, Migration) and a sampling of six cities, including Basel, Krakow and Trieste. Artists, architects and urban theorists draw richly detailed pictures of profound transformations from core towns to sprawling conturbations, changes of interest to all who are nostalgic for the old city. Includes work from Chris Bur ..."
"Rather than limit the minimal to being a type of visual art, the curators of "Minimalisms: A Sign of the Times" conceive of the minimal as a way of life, as a spirit that impregnates nearly the whole of modern culture and its surroundings. After an exhaustive overview of classic Minimalist works by Dan Flavin, Frank Stella, Agnes Martin, Carl Andre, and Elsworth Kelly, "Minimalisms" looks further, at artworks by Andreas Gursky, Candida ..."
"“The human factor always stands at the center,“ says Francis Giacobetti about his work. Nowhere is this factor more in evidence than this selection of the photographer’s oeuvre. From revelatory portraits to breathtaking nudes, electrifying fashion shots to cutting-edge commercial shots, composition, contrast and variety are the hallmarks of Giacobetti’s work. Equally at home in the Caribbean shooting beauties for the Pirelli Calendar, o ..."
