Hardback. Condition: New. Trained at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-arts de Paris in the atelier of Georges Jeanclos, Elsa Sahal quickly focused on working with ceramics for their sensuality and fragility. Former resident at the Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts, in 2013 (Helena, MT), at Alfred University, New York State College of Ceramics, in 2009-2010 (Alfred, NY) and at the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres (2007-2008), Elsa Sahal has also taught at the Haute École d'Art et de Design in Geneva and at the École Supérieure d'Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg. She experiments in particular with the idea of volume and balance in sculpture, while returning to an exploration of the themes of the body and femininity. Ambiguous, dense, sensual and colourful, her works oscillate between anthropomorphic landscape and the landscaped body, taking up Cézanne's dream of uniting women's curves with the shoulders of hills. Elsa Sahal conceives, kneads and then produces complex and disturbing forms sustained by dense colours and sublimated through enamel.Winner of the MAIF prize for sculpture, in 2008, and the contemporary sculpture prize awarded by the Fondazione Francesco Messina, in 2007, Elsa Sahal has presented her work in one-woman shows and group exhibitions in numerous museums around the globe: at the Bonnefantenmuseum, 'Ceramix, Ceramic art from Gauguin to Schütte', in 2015 (Maastricht); at the MAD Museum, 'Body and Soul, New International Ceramics', in 2013 (New York); at the Fondation d'entreprise Ricard, 'Sculptures', in 2008 (Paris); and at the Incheon Women Artists Biennale, in 2008 (Korea).

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Cloth, no dj. Minor shelf wear. Else very sound. Recognised as one of the leading artists of his generation, Marc Quinn is not easily reduced to convenient labels. The most comprehensive book on Quinn to date, Self, You, and the World traces the artist's three-decades-long fascination with the multifaceted experience of being human. Marc Quinn came to international attention in 1991 with Self, a cast of his head made from his own frozen blood. His early explorations of the self would soon broaden to wider reflections on the experiences of others. Prominent in this shift was his acclaimed 2005 sculpture Alison Lapper Pregnant, exhibited on the Fourth Plinth of London's Trafalgar Square. Quinn has since engaged with a number of urgent social and environmental issues through diverse materials and techniques that frequently animate connections between art and science, wrestling with the dichotomies of beauty and ugliness, the physical and the spiritual, the eternal and the mortal. This seminal overview features many of his most celebrated works alongside conversations with past sitters and fellow thinkers Ai Weiwei, Titus Kaphar, Alison Lapper, Kate Moss, Nella Ngingo, and Jen Reid, painting a picture of an artist insatiably curious about the world that surrounds him.…

Pub Year 2020, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> This book, Johan Creten, De Storm, authored by Mara Hoberman, serves as a comprehensive exploration of the work of Belgian artist Johan Creten, showcased during his exhibition at the Wilisiclelnelse Museum from 24 May to 14 September 2014. This exhibition marks a significant milestone, being the first time Creten has presented his art on such a large scale in his homeland. The exhibition, titled The Storm, consists of approximately twenty-five sculptures and ceramic works displayed within the Hortiflora garden, reflecting both his artistic vision and the cultural context of Belgium.Throughout the text, Hoberman delves into Creten?s distinctive approach to sculpture and installation, highlighting his preference for sites rich in historical significance. These locations amplify the impact of his work, which engages with themes such as the grotesque, the baroque, and mannerism. Creten's art is characterised by seemingly innocent figures that reveal complex socio-political narratives, addressing issues like fascism, racism, and gender discrimination. He uses his art to comment on the absurdities of human relationships and the challenges of emotional communication, drawing sharp contrasts between the fragility of connections and the weight of societal issues.The book not only provides insight into Creten?s artistic philosophy but also examines his transition towards more abstract forms. Hoberman articulates how Creten?s work encapsulates modern chaos and reflects a belief in the ?magical? power of unique objects and the healing potential of sculpture. This exploration establishes Johan Creten as a multifaceted artist who bridges historical context with contemporary discourse, urging readers to consider the deeper implications of his creations. …
