Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The poodle as emblem in the subversive multimedia works of the influential Canadian collectiveFounded in Toronto in 1969 by AA Bronson, Felix Partz and Jorge Zontal, General Idea implemented media critique and queer theory in paintings, posters, photographs, installations, videos, magazines…and other multiples.Known for its wit, pampered presence and ornamental physique, the poodle arrived into the visual lexicon of General Idea in the early 1980s and quickly became a vehicle by which the group addressed issues ranging from sexual stereotypes to the commodification of contemporary art. However, beyond its use as an agent of subtle yet substantive political and social critique, the poodle also served as a kind of heraldic devicean emblem for the mythology of General Idea and its processes of mythmaking. Through its various incarnations of the poodle, General Idea strived for a metanarrative that skirted the boundaries between artifact and artifice; history and fantasy; truth and fiction. The poodle as emblem in the subversive multimedia works of the influential Canadian collective Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condition: VG. A blue fabric casebound book with debossed white text on the spine. The end pages are neon pink. Pages: (3), 4-83, (1). Profusely illustrated with a majority color images. Folded exhibition interview pamphlet-- "Poodle Trouble: Frédéric Bonnet Speaks With A.A. Bronson"-- laid in. "This exhibition brings… together two major installations dating from the early- to mid-1980s. Previously exhibited at the Musée d'art moderne de la Ville de Paris as part of General Idea's retrospective in 2012, these works will be on view in the United States for the first time, along with a selection of paintings, drawings and sculptural wall works. A fully illustrated catalogue will accompany this exhibition, which is available to purchase online. Founded in Toronto in 1969 by AA Bronson, Felix Partz and Jorge Zontal, General Idea were among the first artists to implement media critique and queer theory in their work. For twenty-five years, they created a pioneering and singular practice that addressed the intersection of art and commerce, the role of the artist and the museum, body politics and, later, the AIDS crisis. Using strategies of appropriation, audience participation, humor and irony, they staged performances and created paintings, posters, photographs, installations, videos, magazines and other multiples that together form a kind of meta-spectacle as much as a formal artistic oeuvre.".
