Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Laib's tranquil installations celebrate simplicity and transience. The oeuvre of the German installation artist Wolfgang Laib (born 1950) expresses a deep-seated belief in formal and conceptual simplicity, as informed by his formative life experiences in India and the teachings of the ancient Taoist philosopher Lao Tzu. Laib creates sculptures that connect the past and present, working with perishable organic materials (pollen, milk, wood and rice) as well as durable ones (granite, marble and brass). His most famous works consist of mounds of pollen splayed on museum and gallery floors. This catalogue traces the creation of Laib's recent room-size installation, Crossing the River, for the Buendner Kunstmuseum. Comprising thousands of rice mountains that in part symbolise vitality and abundance, this potent work is discussed at length in the book - particularly in a conversation between Laib and the Swiss architect Peter Zumthor. Laib and Zumthor unravel both the technical and spiritual underpinnings of the piece. SELLING POINTS: . Wolfgang Laib is a German artist known for his use of simple organic materials such as pollen, milk, beeswax and rice, which he arranges into meditative installations . Hardcover, landscape-format book documents his most recent room-size installation made of thousands of rice mountains 40 illustrations Cyclical groups of works illustrate a deep relationship with nature Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Ungelesenes, vollständiges Exemplar; in sehr gutem Zustand, leichte Lagerspuren, als Mängelexemplar gekennzeichnet -Die Annahme, dass sich die Welt einst auf große, gefestigte Erzählungen stützte, mag vielleicht beruhigend wirken, ist jedoch längst überholt. Die vielfältige Sprach- und Kulturlandschaft des Schweizer Kanton Graubünden dient als Ausgangspunkt des Projektes Wie Sprache die Welt erfindet. Das Bündner Kunstmuseum untersucht mit der Gruppenausstellung und dieser Publikation die Bedeutung von Sprache und Erzählungen in Gemeinschaft und Gesellschaft und appliziert diese regionalen Besonderheiten auf die vorherrschenden Strukturen des Erzählens in Themen wie kulturelle Identität, politische Narrative, Migration oder Sprachwandel. Aus der Perspektive der Kunst und der Literatur zeigt die Publikation das gesellschaftstransformierende Potenzial von Sprachen und Erzählungen. Ergänzend zu den Werken spannen literarische Texte von Gianna Olinda Cadonau, Asa S. Hendry, Marina Skalova, Joachim B. Schmidt, Usama Al Shahmani, Vincenzo Todisco und Ivna E ic den thematischen Rahmen des Buches, das der spekulativen Frage nachgeht: Welche Erzählungen haben das Potenzial, neue Perspektiven auf die Welt hervorzubringen und eine tiefere Verbindung zu uns selbst und unserer Umwelt herzustellen Mit einer Einleitung des künstlerischen Direktors Stephan Kunz und einem Essay des Kurators Damian Jurt. Künstler\*innen: Carl Andre, Arman, Irma Blank, Marcel Broodthaers, Alois Carigiet, Christo, Gion Casper Collenberg, Marcel Duchamp, John Furnival, Gilbert & George, Eugen Gomringer, Ian Hamilton Finlay David Ballantyne, Susan Hiller, Karla Hiraldo Voleau, Thomas Hirschhorn Marcus Steinweg, Jenny Holzer, Rebecca Horn, Vicente Huidobro, Bethan Huws, Marcel Janco, Pascal Lampert, Maude Le onard-Contant, Annette Kelm, Jan Kiefer, Barbara Kruger, Bruce Nauman, Seiichi Niikuni Pierre Garnier, Meret Oppenheim, Hans Op de Beeck, Erica Pedretti, VALIE EXPORT, Francis Picabia, Julien Pre vieux, Dieter Roth, Kurt Schwitters, Zineb Sedira, Augustas Serapinas, AndreThomkins, Nora Turato, Jacques de la Villegle , Not Vital, Kemang Wa Lehulere, Ruth und Robert Wolf-Rehfeldt Art-Narrative-UtopiaThe hypothesis that the world was once sustained by grand established narratives may feel reassuring but has in fact long been refuted. The diverse linguistic and cultural landscape of the Swiss canton of Grisons serves as point of departure for the project Wie Sprache die Welt erfindet, (How Language Invents the World). In the group exhibition and this publication the Bündner Kunstmuseum investigates the signifi- cance of language, narrative spaces, and stories in communities and society and applies these specific regional characteristics to the prevailing structures of story- telling. The publication illustrates the socially transformative potential of languages and narratives from the perspective of visual art and literature. Complementing the works, literary writings by Gianna Olinda Cadonau, Asa S. Hendry, Marina Skalova, Joachim B. Schmidt, Usama Al Shahmani, Vincenzo Todisco, and Ivna Z ic delineate the book's thematic framework, probing the speculative question: Which narratives have the potential to engender novel perspectives on the world and establish a deeper con- nection to ourselves and our environment With an introduction by artistic director Stephan Kunz and an essay by curator Damian Jurt. artists: Carl Andre, Arman, Irma Blank, Marcel Broodthaers, Alois Carigiet, Christo, Gion Casper Collenberg, Marcel Duchamp, John Furnival, Gilbert & George, Eugen Gomringer, Ian Hamilton Finlay David Ballantyne, Susan Hiller, Karla Hiraldo Voleau, Thomas Hirschhorn Marcus Steinweg, Jenny Holzer, Rebecca Horn, Vicente Huidobro, Bethan Huws, Marcel Janco, Pascal Lampert, Maude Le onard-Contant, Annette Kelm, Jan Kiefer, Barbara Kruger, Bruce Nauman, Seiichi Niikuni Pierre Garnier, Meret Oppenheim, Hans Op de Beeck, Erica Pedretti, VALIE EXPORT, Francis Picabia, Julien Pre vieux, Diete 288 pp. Deutsch, Französisch, Italienisch.…
