Summary:
What is an object? This question was addressed by Graham Harman, the originator of object-oriented philosophy and a central figure of speculative realism, in a lecture at Moderna Museet in Stockholm. Providing a thorough exposition of the object from an ontological standpoint, and putting forward a concept of the object beyond reductionism, Harman declares an approach that brings together philosophy and the arts where an object is not reducible to its components or effects and must instead be approached obliquely or indirectly. The lecture was held on the occasion of "Sculpture after Sculpture," an exhibition of work by Katharina Fritsch, Jeff Koons, and Charles Ray. In the exhibition hall with the show’s thirteen sculptures, thirteen questions about the object were posed to Graham Harman by interlocutors from the worlds of art, business studies, and philosophy.

la rétrospective, sur 500 pages, des installations réalisées entre 2003 et 2011, aux confins de la sculpture monumentale et de la micro-architecture. Publié suite à l'exposition au Centre culturel suisse, Paris, de septembre à décembre 2011. Gregory et Cyril Chapuisat (nés respectivement en 1972 à New York et en 1976 à Bienne, vivent et travaillent « in situ ») réalisent des œuvres aux confins de la sculpture monumentale et de la micro-architecture. Leurs installations, construites avec une méthode inventée pour chaque cas, sont le plus souvent spécifiques à un lieu, et donc éphémères. Elles évoquent des rêves, des peurs ou des expériences de l'enfance, et affirment une convergence entre l'art et la vie. Les phases de création et de réalisation prennent corps en de longues périodes de travail collectif, pendant lesquels les artistes vivent parfois dans leurs œuvres.

Summary:
Lifelike invites a close examination of art since the late 1960s based on commonplace objects and situations that are startlingly realistic, often playful and sometimes surreal--works that investigate the quieter side of the quotidian. While artists such as Vija Celmins, Rudolf Stingel and Paul Sietsema employ illusionistic painting and drawing, others’ use of materials is surprising--Thomas Demand’s video of what appears to be a rainstorm is made from animated candy wrappers; Susan Collis’ sculpture of construction debris is fashioned from exotic hardwoods, mother of pearl and silver. What binds these artists together is their rejection of the easy route technology might offer in favor of labor-intensive fabrication. Featuring painting, sculpture, photography, drawing, video and installations by more than 40 artists, this publication is the first publication to address the recent history of artists using these strategies across media.
