Résumé:
Marcel Duchamp's disguises and countless photographic self-portrayals, and his humorous commentaries on art, the art industry, art criticism, and art history, are legendary in word and image. Less well known is a Marcel Duchamp who, with great empathy and strategic awareness, embraced the cause of the artists in his contemporary cultural environment: as curator of exhibitions from the early 1910s to his death in 1968, as juror and consultant for some of the most important collections, museums, and galleries of modern art. The volume outlines nearly seventy exhibitions, supplemented by recent research findings, and illustrates Duchamp’s close cooperation with leading figures of his time, including Louise and Walter Conrad Arensberg, Katherine S. Dreier, Francis Picabia, Sidney and Harriet Janis as well as André Breton, Julien Levy, and Peggy Guggenheim.

Résumé:
Donald Judd (1928-1994) is one of the most influential American artists of the postwar era. Beginning in the 1960s, he developed new ideas about art--in both his works and writings--that challenged many of modernism's core tenets by resisting the categories of painting and sculpture. Judd described this work as "specific objects." Critics labeled it minimalism. Perhaps(...)

Résumé:
Donald Judd (1928-1994) is one of the most influential American artists of the postwar era. Beginning in the 1960s, he developed new ideas about art--in both his works and writings--that challenged many of modernism's core tenets by resisting the categories of painting and sculpture. Judd described this work as "specific objects." Critics labeled it minimalism. Perhaps because Judd's own critical writings provide a discursive framework for his work, some of the monographic essays on his work are not widely known. This volume collects critical and scholarly writings on Judd, examining his work as both artist and critic.

Résumé:
Une série de natures mortes et de scènes d'intérieur de l'artiste suisse. Caro Niederer (née en 1963 in Zurich) est, aux côtés de Pipilotti Rist et de Sylvie Fleury, l'une des femmes artistes suisses contemporaines les plus populaires. Son travail englobe divers médiums et techniques : peinture, photographie, vidéo, mais aussi tapisserie sur soie. Les situations quotidiennes de sa vie privée et de son environnement immédiat sont la source de la plupart des œuvres de Niederer. Ces instantanés personnels sont ensuite retravaillés en peintures ou servent de modèle à d'énormes tapis de soie noués à la main, que l'artiste fait fabriquer en Chine. La transformation d'une image par sa reproduction sur un autre support est un thème central de son œuvre. Dans une série de photos intitulée Intérieurs, Niederer photographie in situ ses œuvres vendues, dans les maisons et les bureaux de leurs nouveaux propriétaires.

Résumé:
In her work, visual artist Popel Coumou plays with the main elements of photography: light, paper, and the perception of reality. By carefully lighting her collages, she manages to give the paper relief a third dimension; the flat surface comes to life. She creates empty spaces, compositions and graphic lines verging on the abstract. Figures rarely appear in her work, but(...)

Résumé:
In her work, visual artist Popel Coumou plays with the main elements of photography: light, paper, and the perception of reality. By carefully lighting her collages, she manages to give the paper relief a third dimension; the flat surface comes to life. She creates empty spaces, compositions and graphic lines verging on the abstract. Figures rarely appear in her work, but there is always a sign of recent human presence, such as an empty chair or an open door. Published on the occasion of an exhibition at Fotomuseum Den Haag, ''Paper and light'' is an overview of Coumou’s work to date, including new work in an enlarged collage technique, specially produced for the museum.

Résumé:
Claes Oldenburg’s commitment to familiar objects has shaped accounts of his career, but his associations with Pop art and postwar consumerism have overshadowed another crucial aspect of his work. In this revealing reassessment, Katherine Smith traces Oldenburg’s profound responses to shifting urban conditions, framing his enduring relationship with the city as a critical perspective and conceiving his art as urban theory. Smith argues that Oldenburg adapted lessons of context, gleaned from New York’s changing cityscape in the late 1950s, to large-scale objects and architectural plans. By examining disparate projects from New York to Los Angeles, she situates Oldenburg’s innovations in local geographies and national debates. In doing so, Smith illuminates patterns of urbanization through the important contributions of one of the leading artists in the United States.

Donald Judd was one of the most important exponents of American Minimal Art. Among the lesser-known aspects of his work are the numerous built architectural projects in which he explores the relationship between architecture art, furniture, and landscape. One particular location was of great significance to Judd’s architectural work: Fort D.R. Russell, a former US military base in the Chihuahuan desert on the southern edge of the pioneer town of Marfa, Texas. Judd acquired the fort and other structures in Marfa which he systematically converted into one of the largest ensemble collections of contemporary art in the world.
