Summary:
What if museum critics were challenged to envision their own exhibitions? In this publication, fourteen authors from disciplines throughout the social sciences and humanities propose exhibitions inspired by their research and critical concerns to creatively put theory into practice. Pushing the boundaries of museology, this collection gives rare insight into the process of conceptualizing exhibitions. The contributors offer concrete, innovative projects, each designed for a specific setting in which to translate critical academic theory about society, culture, and history into accessible imagined exhibitions. Spanning Australia, Barbados, Canada, Chile, the Netherlands, Poland, South Africa, Switzerland, and the United States, the exhibitions are staged in museums, scientific institutions, art galleries, and everyday sites. Essays explore political and practical constraints, imaginative freedom, and experiment with critical, participatory, and socially relevant exhibition design.

Summary:
This exceedingly seductive volume documents "Katharina prospekt : the Russians", a tour de force exhibition put together by the innovative Belgian fashion house, A.F. Vandevorst, of Russian cultural artifacts borrowed from the State Historical Museum in Moscow, coupled with contemporary fashion designs by A.F. Vandevorst and others - including Yves Saint Laurent, Bless, Martin Margiela and Jean-Paul Gaultier. There are sections on Propaganda, Military Design, Fur, Chess and even the iconic Russian dolls that fit one inside another. The bold typography riffs on Constructivist design, and we see antique objects, artifacts, textiles and costumes alongside vintage photographs and contemporary fashion design.

Summary:
This richly-illustrated catalogue accompanies the most comprehensive exhibition ever devoted to the subject. The illustrated books made during this enormously creative period were often hand-made and hand-printed in limited editions and were, in many instances, the collaborations between poets and painters. Among the well-known artists represented are Aleksandr Rodchenko, Natalia Goncharova, and El Lissitzky. This authoritative volume is destined to be the definitive word on the subject. Features 610 color illustrations, 60 duotones. ***Épuisé / Out of Print***
