Résumé:
Silvia Bächli was invited to design the official contribution for the Swiss Pavilion at this year’s Biennale in Venice. This book offers a look inside her studio and documents the preparation of her works for the Biennale, illustrating her working process with spatial situations and snapshots that show her trying out various constellations as well as focusing on individual works and groups. The works and pictures from the artist’s studio are combined with photographs of her working stay in Iceland. Bächli has developed her body of drawings over the course of three decades, using varying formats and techniques. Drawing, for her, is a movement of seeing, of gentle deviations and displacements within the gravitational field of an aimless attentiveness to things and dreamlike phenomena that doesn’t really come to rest even in the finished drawing. The result is not just painterly moments; the drawings often seem to capture, as if in film stills, a cinematic look way of looking at bodies and things or their details, at landscapes, gestures, structures, and processes.
Kitty Kraus

Résumé:
German artist Kitty Kraus applies a Minimalist formal vocabulary to humble, elegiac materials that suggest an active engagement with alchemical transformations. Utilizing household glass, light bulbs, cloth and ice, Krauss explores a trajectory of dissolution in contemporary materials, finding a melancholic beauty in the literal and symbolic failure of form.

Résumé:
Son espace de travail, ordonné dans ses moindres détails, Mondrian (1872-1944) le conçoit comme le prolongement de sa peinture et l'annonce du monde harmonique auquel il aspire depuis ses débuts. L'abstraction, dont il est l'un des instigateurs avec Kandinsky et Malévitch avant la guerre de 1914, se veut aussi porteuse de sens et porteuse d'avenir. A terme, proclame(...)

L'abstraction, dont il est l'un des instigateurs avec Kandinsky et Malévitch avant la guerre de 1914, se veut aussi porteuse de sens et porteuse d'avenir. A terme, proclame Mondrian, l'univers se réglera sur les principes du néo-plasticisme, couleurs pures, lignes droites et surfaces lisses.

Jean Tinguely: retrospective

Résumé:
Associated with the Nouveaux Réalistes and Zero, Swiss painter and sculptor Jean Tinguely (1925–91) is best known for his whirring, jangling meta-mechanic sculptures, which take up Dada’s mantle in their use of discarded materials and their wit, humor and irony.

Résumé:
Associated with the Nouveaux Réalistes and Zero, Swiss painter and sculptor Jean Tinguely (1925–91) is best known for his whirring, jangling meta-mechanic sculptures, which take up Dada’s mantle in their use of discarded materials and their wit, humor and irony. But this perception of Tinguely as merely a playful kinetic sculptor neglects the more topical, critical, theoretical and interdisciplinary aspects of Tinguely’s work. An extensive monograph on this chronically underpublished artist, Jean Tinguely: Retrospective is the first publication to explore the artist’s work from this perspective.

Résumé:
In 1966, German artist Gerhard Richter (born 1932) embarked on a series of paintings: uniform grids of colored rectangles or squares in a chart configuration against a white background, inspired by industrially produced paint chips. With the exception of only one other painting, this marked the artist’s first use of color and a turning point in his career. This comprehensive catalogue is the first publication dedicated to the original Colour Charts, both those created in 1966 and those made in the ‘70s after a five-year hiatus. Featuring new essays by Dietmar Elger, head of the Gerhard Richter Archive; Hubertus Butin, curator and author of several key texts on Richter; and Jaleh Mansoor, professor at the University of British Columbia.
