Platforms of Reality is a multi-layered analysis and interpretation of Heaven Baek's work, which explores how individuals and society interact both in reality and on stage. It ranges from the artist's early works to her most recent practice, in which she questions the reality of video timelines, instant realities, and collective memories.

Ob in bildender Kunst, Literatur, Kino, Wissenschaft oder Mode - in den Krisen nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg beruhte die Faszination für Typen auf einem gesamtgesellschaftlichen Impuls. Man suchte neue Vorbilder und ganz unbescheiden das »Gesicht der Zeit«, wie uns die neusachlichen Bildnisse von Otto Dix, George Grosz, Jeanne Mammen und Hanna Nagel zeigen. Viele der klischeebehafteten Vorstellungen, etwa zur »Neuen Frau« oder zum »Arbeiter« und z...

Skin in the Game follows on from the acclaimed fieldwork diary, The Metabolic Museum. In this new book, Clémentine Deliss expands on how artists understand risk and contention both in their work and with regard to historical collections. Through a series of compelling conversations, questions are raised on how to work on colonial collections through the concept of the "prototype" as generative of a multiplicity of non-exclusive interpretatio...

Who Owns the Truth? The theme of Ars Electronica in 2023, this year formulated as a question, aims directly at key disputed topics of our time: truth and ownership, interpretive authority and sovereignty. Can truth be owned? Is there a right to truth and if it does belong to someone, what control and responsibility are associated with it?

Jeewi Lee is interested in all the traces-the intimate imprints and distinctive markings-that we leave behind and that inhabit the spaces surrounding us. Abstract compositions of rescued stories, worn-out pavements and stripped down wallpapers, cut out floors, grains of sand that have traveled millions of years around the world, coffee stains or burnt wood. These traces, both human and historical, become vessels of stories and memories, inscri...

Brenda Draney's work explores the complex nature of intimacy. Referencing her own memories and experiences, the Canadian artist examines the layered meanings embedded in everyday motifs and situations. The cumulative portrait that emerges references a collective self that encompasses not only her own experience but that of past generations and current community members. However, instead of simply reproducing these elements, she is more interes...

Willkommen im Grand Hotel der Gefühle, in dem alle Arten von Gefühlen ein- und ausgehen. Jeder Gast hat seine eigenen Bedürfnisse. Wut zum Beispiel ist sehr laut und braucht viel Platz, um sich Luft zu machen. Ihr ein zu kleines, abgelegenes Zimmer zu geben, ist keine gute Idee. Traurigkeit dagegen spricht mit leiser Stimme und überschwemmt gelegentlich das Badezimmer. Dankbarkeit streift gerne draußen umher, man weiß nie, wann sie kommt und s...

Leben hat viele Formen und ist vielfältig verflochten. Das Buch macht die Koexistenz verschiedener Wesen und Welten anhand von Dingen, Geschichten und Kunstwerken sichtbar. Es zeigt, dass die Mitwelt in vielen Regionen der Erde lebendig und aktiv erfahren wird: Berge und Flüsse sind nicht nur Ressource oder Kulisse, sondern wirkmächtige Quellen des Lebens, Pflanzen und Tiere sind nicht allein Nahrung, sondern Gefährten, Ahnen und Geistwesen be...

Since the late 1970s, the Canadian artist Jeff Wall has contributed significantly to establishing photography as an autonomous medium, and is regarded as one of the key vanguards of "staged photography". Referring to his approach as "near documentary", his images resemble documentary photographs in style and manner, but instead are meticulously composed, multilayered compositions. Synthesizing photography with elements from other art forms suc...

Jeff Wall hat seit den späten 1970er-Jahren maßgeblich zur Etablierung der Fotografie als eigenständiger Kunstform beigetragen. Er gilt als Begründer der »inszenierten« Fotografie: Seine Motive wirken zunächst wie Momentaufnahmen, doch bei seinen zumeist großformatigen, aus einer Vielzahl von Einzelaufnahmen vielschichtig und subtil komponierten Fotografien handelt es sich vorwiegend um vollständig konstruierte Bildwelten. Indem sein Werk Foto...

Her American Girl in Italy-the street scene with the whistling Italians-is an icon. Now sensational negatives and slides have surfaced from the archive that reveal a little-known side of Ruth Orkin: that of the sensitive, interested, witty chronicler of the women's world of the 1940s and 1950s. Orkin thought up editorials like the tongue-in-cheek reportage Who works harder? comparing the lives of a career woman and a housewife. She documented ...

Der österreichische Maler Herbert Brandl hat sich mit seinen großformatigen, gestisch expressiven Arbeiten als einen der wichtigsten Vertreter der zeitgenössischen Malerei etabliert. Seine Bilder oszillieren zwischen Abstraktion und Gegenständlichkeit, Beobachtungen der Natur stehen häufig im Mittelpunkt seiner Arbeiten. Sein unbändiger Schaffensprozess und ein kraftvoller und experimenteller Umgang mit Farbe zeichnen sein faszinierendes Werk ...

Guy Ben Ner macht aus wenig viel, indem er sich selbst und sein privates Umfeld radikal in seine künstlerische Praxis mit einbezieht. Die Wohnung seiner Familie in Tel Aviv dient dem Videokünstler genauso als Drehort wie die Filialen einer Möbelkette. In diesen oft grotesken Settings offenbart sich der Einfluss von Wirtschaft und Politik auf die intimsten menschlichen Beziehungen. Dabei ist es die Diskrepanz zwischen improvisierten Drehsituat...

As time passes and details fade, the photographs that we choose to hold onto become our memories. As a result when an image is made, explicitly or subconsciously, decisions are being made about how things will be remembered." These images are Australian photographer's Mark Forbes Collected Memories. Five years in the making, his debut monograph presents a cohesive blend of carefully composed scenes, from faded interiors and common, relatable ...
