hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Die Monografie präsentiert Arbeiten des koreanischen Fotografen Atta Kim aus 25 Jahren. Atta Kim (\*1956) untersucht in ihnen konsequent Fragen zur Existenz auf der Grundlage seiner unverwechselbaren Weltsicht, die er durch das Studium der Schriften von Martin Heidegger, G.I. Gurdjieff und des Zen Buddhismus entwickelte. Atta Kims Serien In der-Welt-sein (1991), Deconstruction (1995) und The Museum Project (1995-2002) - in der er mit Menschen, die wie Exponate unter Plexiglas präsentiert werden, ein eigenes Museum erschafft - sorgten in der Kunstwelt für eine Sensation. Seit 2002 arbeitet er an seinem Projekt ON-AIR. Den so genannten Attaism machte er durch eine Ausstellung im New Yorker International Center of Photography weiten Kreisen bekannt. Die jüngste Serie von ON-Air stellt den Höhepunkt des Projektes dar: 10 000 Fotos einer Stadt werden in einem einzigen Bild verschmolzen (Text engl.). 411 pp. Englisch.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In "The Museum Project," Korean photographer Atta Kim commandeers average scenes--city streets, department stores, freight depots and forests--and turns them into exhibition spaces. On display are people crammed into acrylic boxes, stacked in sets, on end, or sometimes alone. In selecting his subjects and isolating them in their boxes, Kim aims to "detach them from reality; to display and deconstruct at the same time my own concept of the world." Kim compares his efforts to that of an archaeologist, sifting through the cultural strata in order to unearth and hold up exemplary objects for our contemplation. "The Museum Project" is comprised of a number of series, such as "War Memorial," "Sex," "Suicide," and other human typologies, each intended to highlight a particular mode of behavior or belief. In certain series, the subjects are isolated from their natural settings, each display case simply framed and offset by backdrops in primary colors. The resulting images are curious and startling, straddling the indeterminate ground between performance, photography, and an alternate form of anthropology. "The subject of history is, finally, nothing but human beings," Kim says. "[The] great order of. the cosmos is that all kinds of acts conducted by human beings are always watched by someone." Atta Kim was born in Korea in 1956. He graduated from Changwon University with a Bachelor of Science degree and has been actively photographing since the mid-1980s. He has had solo shows at the Samsung Photo Gallery, Seoul; the Nikon Salon Gallery, Tokyo; the Yechong Gallery, Seoul; and has been included in numerous group exhibitions, including shows at the Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago; The Odens Foto Triennale in Odens, Denmark; the Australian Centre for Photography; the twenty-fifth Sao Paolo Bienal; and FotoFest in Houston. She examines how the work relates to Eastern philosophy and Buddhism, as well as how it reflects the pressure cooker of contemporary Korean society.

BOOKS SHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY, WRAPPED IN PADDING, IN A BOX. The first monograph featuring Korean artist Atta Kim's Museum Project (1995-2002.) The "series centered on a single visual motif: one or more figures encased, as if on display, within a museum-style plexiglass vitrine. In the earliest pictures the figures were nude, often crouched in fetal position. Some of the vitrines were actually placed and shot in museums, others in natural settings or on city streets and in public buildings at off hours. The pictures that resulted were effective: quiet, mimimalist, mildly surreal. They placed bare bodies where they would not otherwise be found, but also made the bodies as untouchably inorganic as antique sculptures in a gallery or expensive machines in a showroom." (NY Times.)
