Résumé:
Idyll comprises a series of paintings, silk-screened prints, and drawings. Much of Albrecht’s work is inspired by the dreaminess of childhood, whether expressing her cloudy recollections of the storybooks she read as a child (stories populated by strange creatures, impossible happenings, and oneiric landscapes) or the forested West Coast landscapes that surrounded her. On the pages of Idyll, a series of interconnected myths emerges fully formed, each myth articulating a sense of wistfulness for a past that never was. By turns surreal, fantastical, and absurdist, Albrecht constructs these pieces with the vivid yet subtle values that are a product of her silk-screening work.

Résumé:
Certificates of authenticity are a critical aspect of art works today. They often embody the artwork itself, while referring to it, serving as its deed, legal statement, and fiscal invoice. Certificates by artists validate the authorship and originality of the work and they allow the work of art to be positioned in the marketplace as a branded product. Providing examples of artists certificates from the past fifty years, this book reveals how roles have shifted and developed, as well as how the materials and content of art have changed. With certificates by Judith Barry, Pierre Bismuth, Daniel Buren, Marcel Duchamp, Dan Flavin, Liam Gillick, Hans Haacke, Edward Kienholz, Yves Klein, Joseph Kosuth, Sol LeWitt, Piero Manzoni, Gordon Matta-Clark, Jonathan Monk, Robert Morris, Antoni Muntadas, Yoko Ono, Robert Rauschenberg, David Shrigley, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Ben Vautier, Lawrence Weiner, Franz West and others.
