Summary:
Created in Berlin around 15 years ago, this large-format collage book by Isa Genzken (born 1948) is both a personal diary and artistic manifesto. In it are portraits of the artist and her friends; clippings from advertisements and glamour magazines; male pinups; illustrations of fences and grates from animal enclosures; mostly bare trees, bushes and forests; columns, faces and strange details from the artist’s work and installations; postcards of historical paintings and handwritten notes. Genzken uses brown sticky tape and silver textured textile tape; black, blue, red and vibrant green neon papers give the book a dramatic structure, creating windows and doors with views in and out. The format of the pages gradually becomes larger throughout the course of the book, giving it an astounding physicality.

Summary:
This volume documents Gerhard Richter's 65-foot-tall, abstract, stained-glass window for Germany's historic Cologne Cathedral, the original of which was destroyed by bombs in World War II, and thereafter replaced with clear glass. Composed of more than 11,000 four-inch squares, or "pixels," in 72 colors, the window is based on Richter's 1974 painting, "4096 Colors," a grid of monochromatic squares 64 tall and 64 wide (for a total of 4096 squares) which was organized and designed according to a mathematical formula that systematically mixed red, yellow, blue and gray. Photographs of the work are accompanied by three essays which integrate this important work into the context of Richter's oeuvre, and shed light on the principle of randomness on which it is based. Gerhard Richter was born in Dresden and escaped to West Germany in 1961. He has lived and worked in Cologne, where he was made an honorary citizen last year, since the early 1980s.

Cette première monographie sur l'œuvre de Rewakowicz interroge de diverses manières toute la question de l'identité reliée à l'habitat et au vêtement. En contraste avec la masse stable qu'est la sculpture et l'architecture monumentale, les costumes et structures de l'artiste sont gonflables et mobiles, et s'intéressent aux lieu et aux personnes qui les activent. En utilisant des matériaux tels le latex, le polyéthylène, le papier d'aluminium et des panneaux solaires, Rewakowicz apprivoise les technologies afin de créer des expériences publiques et des vêtements fonctionnels qui peuvent se transformer en architecture portable, voire nomade.
