The title of the exhibition, Combi-Nation, is a play on words and refers to the fact that the artists work with ôimpure strategiesö, (combining diverse elements in the same work); furthermore, in Spanish the word has the connotation of the ôunification of nationsö. The subtitle, imagen sueca, strives to indicate that the artists represented here are all dealing with a common theme: ôThe Image of Swedenö and that image is presented in many different ways., English, Year1993, Illust.

Hardback. Condition: New. Sonia Delaunay is one of the most important artists of the early twentieth century, whose contribution to European Modernism was fundamental, if not always fully acknowledged in its own right. She is known for translating her experiments via painting into the realm of fashion, interior design and crafts and, thus, consciously transcending the boundaries between fine and applied art. The focus within mainstream art history has been her relationship with her husband Robert Delaunay. Tom Sandqvist shifts this focus on her Jewish roots and sheds a light on the influence of growing up in the typical Eastern European shtetl, which has not attracted any special attention in the analysis of Delaunay's art. Tom Sandqvist reflects on the impact of Judaism on Sonia Delaunay's ouvre, with a special focus on her early contributions to Simultanism and Orphism within the interwar Parisian Avant-Garde.…

Why do we consider a dirty, broken coffee cup ugly when compared with a whole, round cup? How do we actually define what is ugly? Beautiful things have always been the objects for an aesthetic discussion in past decades, but the ugly has always been relegated to the background, existing simply as a negation of beauty, or its complete opposite. Sandqvist initiates a discussion concerning the concept of ugly as he sees the once definitive borders between ugly and beautiful become blurred in contemporary art and society. Beginning with StockholmÆs Modern Museum, he describes the evolution of the idea of beauty. In the end, Sandqvist wonders if ugliness will find its own unique place in our aesthetic, without any reference to concepts of beauty., Swedish, Year1998, Illust. B/W, Illust.

Förlagsband, dek. skyddsomslag. Nyskick. Lund, Signum, 2005. 8:o. 368 sid. + 8 planschblad med illustrationer i färg. Om Tristan Tzara och hans dada-vänner i ljuset av ny information som framkommit i och med att arkiven öppnats i Rumänien: - - - "Dada - kanske den mest kända och skandalomsusade av modernismens konströrelser - sägs ha börjat på Cabaret Voltaire då en litterär afton iscensattes på restaurang Meierei i Zurich den 5 februari 1916. Kvällens huvudnummer bestod i att aktörerna stampade, röt och bankade på kastrull- och grytlock och läste upp obegripliga 'poèmes simultané'. Hur kunde en sådan konst- och kulturrevolution ha börjat på en schweizisk restaurang? I Dada öst visar Tom Sandqvist att Dada inte uppstod fullt utvecklad utan växte fram ur en levande konstnärlig tradition i Östeuropa - särskilt i Rumänien - och spreds till Schweiz när en grupp rumänska modernister slog sig ner i Zurich. Bukarest och andra städer i Rumänien hade varit scenen för dadaliknande poesi, prosa och spektakel under åren före första världskriget. Förgrundsgestalt var Tristan Tzara. Redan som femtonåring började han sin karriär i den avantgardistiska litteraturen när han tillsammans med bröderna Jules och George Janco grundade tidskriften Simbolul. Tzara, som själv myntade begreppet 'Dada', inspirerad av sin egen födelsedag och ett ortodoxt helgon, befann sig på Cabaret Voltaire den där kvällen tillsammans med bröderna Janco och Arthur Segal, alla rumäner. Det är ingen tillfällighet, menar Tom Sandqvist, att så många av de första dadaisterna var rumäner. Han spårar dadaismens ursprung i källor som symbolism, futurism och folklore. Han betonar sammanhanget mellan modernistiska rumäner och Östeuropas jiddisch-tradition. Tristan Tzara, bröderna Janco och Arthur Segal växte upp i judisk kultur och tradition. l åratal förnekade och undertryckte den kommunistiska regimen rumänernas avantgardistiska rörelser. Nu, när arkiven har öppnats, kan Tom Sandqvist berätta den okända historien bakom Dadas rumänska rötter.".…

Hardcover. Condition: VG, Like New. Blue & white & illus. boards, 534 pp., 50 BW illus. "This book is about Modernism and Avant-Garde movements in Central and Eastern European art around the last turn of the century. It sketches a surrealistic, bewildering, irrational arena. At the same time, we are offered a differentiated view on the complex whole of the avantgarde scene in Eastern Europe. The author takes us to dark soirées, scandalous dada theatrical performances, drunken bouts with loudmouthed reformers. Subjectivity stands against rationality, ethnonationalism against internationalism. Yugoslavian zenitism, Czech poetism, Hungarian activism, and other less-known isms, are proposed in exstatic outbursts in shortlived magazines. The pace is hectic, the commitment enormous, and the sheer force of strongminded individuals overwhelming." (Jan von Bonsdorff, Uppsala University).…
