Working together since their graduation from the Royal College of Art in 1990, the Chapman brothers are famous for their iconoclastic sculpture, prints and installations that examine contemporary politics, religion and morality with biting wit and energy.

A three-dimensional collage, End of Fun consists of thousands of plastic figurines, many dressed in Nazi regalia or enacting egregious acts of cruelty, displayed in nine glass cases or dioramas.

Résumé:
Jake Chapman focuses his malice on the calloused underbelly of literature itself. Fragile amateur novelist Christabel Ludd has a bad case of writer's block, and hires self proclaimed "professionals" to transform her novel into a page-turner: they do so, spinning the tale of Bao Xishun, who saves the lives of some dolphins by using his extremely long arms to fish pieces of plastic flotsam from their stomachs. Working this tale into ever more bizarre incarnations, they finally cause Christabel to despairingly resort to poetry in order to break her block.

L’espace est préparé à la manière dont un peintre apprête sa toile avant de l’enduire de pigments. L’atelier de la rue Saint-Alexandre devient alors le support d’une intervention spécifique qui se transformera pendant près de deux ans : d’octobre 1980 à juillet 1982. Trente ans plus tard, Room 901 fait l’objet d’une réflexion approfondie et d’une réactivation.

Résumé:
One of the most important American artists of the 20th century, Donald Judd (1928–1994) pioneered the use of industrial materials and fabrication in serial forms to redefine the relationships between artist, art object, viewer, and space, and usher in the Minimalist style. His signature work transformed in 1984 when he radically revised his approach to color after learning of an industrial process for shaping and enameling aluminum in an array of colors from a commercial color chart. In the last decade of his life, he created multicolored works of serial forms, both wall-mounted and free-standing, which reveal an entirely new engagement with color. Focusing entirely on Judd’s multicolored works, this book features essays by leading scholars that illuminate this body of work and examine its relationship to his oeuvre as a whole. Judd was an important theorist in his own right, and his 1993 text, “Some Aspects of Color in General and Red and Black in Particular,” is reproduced here. An essential book on a groundbreaking artist, the volume includes images of dozens of multicolored works accompanied by preparatory drawings and collages, as well as photographs from the studio and the factory.
