ABOUT THIS BOOK: Ingres Then, and Now is an innovative study of one of the best-known French artists of the nineteenth century, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres. Adrian Rifkin re-evaluates Ingres' work in the context of a variety of literary, musical and visual cultures which are normally seen as alien to him. Re-viewing Ingres' paintings as a series of fragmentary symptoms of the commodity cultures of nineteenth-century Paris, Adrian Rifkin draws the artist away from his familiar association with the Academy and the Salon. Rifkin sets out to show how, by thinking of the historical archive as a form of the unconscious, we can renew our understanding of nineteenth-century conservative or academic cultures by reading them against their 'other'. He situates Ingres in the world of the Parisian Arcades, as represented by Walter Benjamin, and examines the effect of this juxtaposition on how we think of Benjamin himself, following Ingres' image in popular cultures of the twentieth century. Rifkin then returns to the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries to find traces of the emergence of bizarre symptoms in Ingres' early work, symptoms which open him to a variety of conflicting readings and appropriations. It concludes by examining his importance for the great French art critic Jean Cassou on the one hand, and in making a bold, contemporary gay appropriation on the other. Ingres Then, and Now transforms the popular image we have of Ingres. It argues that the figure of the artist is neither fixed in time or place - there is neither an essential man named Ingres, nor a singular body of his work - but is an effect of many, complex and overlapping historical effects.(Publisher).

Published in conjunction with the exhibition "Reisemalheurs (Travel Woes)" at the Freud Museum in London from March 22 to April 22, 2007. From the essay "Reisemalheurs": "In the context of Vivienne Koorland's work, the work 'Reisemalheurs' has a particular resonance. Not only does it invoke the peripatetic nature of her own life-story - a representative tale which has its origins in Eastern Europe, its formative years in South Africa, student experiences in Berlin and Paris, an extended adulthood in New York as well as deep familial ties to London - it serves to distill the sense of unease attendant on displacement and dislocation that so much of her work thematises: iconically, textually and materially."
