        Albrecht Dürer’s material world

        by Edward H. Wouk, Jennifer Spinks

        The painter and printmaker Albrecht Dürer is one of the most important figures of the German Renaissance. This book accompanies the first major exhibition of the Whitworth art gallery's outstanding Dürer collection in over half a century. It offers a new perspective on Dürer as an intense observer of the worlds of manufacture, design and trade that fill his graphic art. Artworks and artefacts examined here expose understudied aspects of Dürer's art and practice, including his attentive examination of objects of daily domestic use, his involvement in economies of local manufacture and exchange, the microarchitectures of local craft and, finally, his attention to cultures of natural and philosophical inquiry and learning.

        4 saints in 3 acts

        A snapshot of the American avant-garde in the 1930s

        by Patricia Allmer, John Sears

        Four Saints in Three Acts by Gertrude Stein and Virgil Thomson was a major avant-garde phenomenon of the 1930s, an experimental opera that nonetheless achieved remarkable popular success. Photography was a key element of that success, but its complex roles in the construction, representation and dissemination of the opera have hitherto received little critical attention. The photographic recording of the all-African American cast in particular affords a unique insight into the complexities of Four Saints in relation to the Harlem Renaissance and the New York avant-gardes of the time. This book, published in collaboration with The Photographers' Gallery, London, presents a wide selection of photographs of the cast, performances, and other material - many images reproduced for the first time - alongside essays by an international range of scholars exploring different aspects of the opera, including dance, fashion, music, and avant-garde writing, as well as photography.

        SHEILA HICKS. Reencounter

        by Carolina Arévalo, Monique Lévi-Strauss, Soledad Hoces de la Guardia, Michel Gauthier

        Reencounter, is the publication of the exhibition presented at the Museo de Arte Precolombino held from August 2019 to January 2020 in Santiago, Chile. The book presents the artist's work that dialogues with contemporary art and the legacy of american indigenous art. As a student of Josef Albers and with an artistic formation based on Bauhaus philosophy, in 1975 Sheila Hicks set out on a trip through South America, from Venezuela to Tierra del Fuego, a fundamental experience in her formation. It was in that journey through the Andes where she learned about textile techniques and ancestral cosmovisions that would change her life and where, inspired by the landscape and architecture of the south of America, she began her own textile artwork.

        Altered Views. Voluspa Jarpa

        by Voluspa Jarpa, Agustín Pérez Rubio, Sabine Breitwieser, Charles Esche, Andrea Giunta, Alberto Mayol, Cuauhtémoc Medina, Adriana Valdés

        Altered Views. Voluspa Jarpa is the publication of the Chilean Pavilion at the 58th Venice Biennale of Art, presented by Voluspa Jarpa and curated by Agustín Pérez Rubio. The project originates in a question the artist seeks to answer: how is the modernist, Eurocentric and colonial gaze configured? The gaze that later expands from Europe to the U.S. and constructs a symbolic contempt that is imposed as political, cultural and economic subjugation in non-hegemonic regions?Altered Views is an unprecedented research project that works as a cross-reference between various instances of European history from the 17th to the 20th Century, full of social manifestations, ethnographic searches and dominant powers, attempting to restore the conquered awe of the coloniser. The work seeks to rescue concepts coined from a Eurocentric perspective that shed light on the violence with which the world is reduced to an expansionist, developmentalist and hegemonic model. Altered Views is an invitation to reflect on issues that prevail and are still visible in our contemporary society. The volume contains a general text from the Chilean pavilion´s curator and editor of this book, Agustín Pérez Rubio explaining each part of the project; along with six different texts by Charles Esche, Sabine Breitwieser, Andrea Giunta, Adriana Valdés, Alberto Mayol and Cuauhtémoc Medina. These texts talk about the historical and contemporary repercussions of the hegemonic model.

        Still life. Josefina Guilisasti 1998—2010

        by Cecilia Brunson, Kevin Power

        STILL LIFE, collects the works developed over more than one decade by Chilean artist Josefina Guillisasti, period in which she works a personal understanding of the still life genre; a perspective that incorporates less evident aspects in order to focus on certain components such as private and commercial stories, pilgrimages, discovered territories, colonizing stages, and development and exploitation of capital. Guillisasti’s work represents in picture, from diverse points of view, objects such as jars, pots, cups, pans, teapots, porcelain birds and Persian rugs, translating their materiality: aluminum, enamel, porcelain and weaves. The format of Still Life modifies the representation of the work: what in exhibitions was a stage of series (each piece part of a total), is broken through the pages, since the represented objects are imposed to the reader in an individual form, with the idea to enable the individual approach to each paint. The book is complemented with two texts by Chilean curator Cecilia Brunson, and writer, art critic, and English academic Kevin Power.

        Mouth Full of Silence

        by Sigismond de Vajay, Kimberlee Cole, Pedro Donoso, Nathalie Goffard, Cristóbal Joannon

        Mouth Full of Silence, compiles a series of works made by the Chilean artist Alejandro Quiroga, between 2016 and 2019, paintings that speak with their lights and shadows of a lost paradise, of a one must be recovered, and another that must be preserved; around different edges of Chilena landscape-nation, through portrayed places that reflect the results of man's action in the environment. As well as speaks of the transformation of Quiroga as an artist and as a person. The publication includes texts by the art historian and curator Kimberlee Cole, the theorists Pedro Donoso and Nathalie Goffard, and the journalist Cristóbal Joannon. Who with their own point of view, they address themes such as landscape, neoliberalism and the journey through the territory, creating a poetic and acute analysis of the current state of Chilean geography and its transformation. "I have been developing this work for several years, which makes a survey of the territory and the incidence of capitalism in it. From there, everything that is addressed has to do with our society and how we project ourselves as a country into the future. It is a purely political and visual work, which aims at a social reflection committed to natural resources, sustainable economy and ecology,” Alejandro Quiroga.

        Figuras recortadas por otra luz. José Pedro Godoy

        by Juan José Richards

        Figuras recortadas por otra luz, exhibits his emerging and productive career.It comprises a journey through the diverse period of Godoy’s work, and places on perspective his obsessions, as the development of a proposal that has maintained a defined and persistent line, transforming him into one of the few Chilean artists that breaches the subject of homosexuality in such a non-judgmental and direct manner. A constant reference to flashy elements extracted from nature, mass culture and human bodies, has been his language of expression, through irony or the contrast between violent and disturbing images.
