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.

Résumé:
Gabriel Orozco emerged at the beginning of the 1990s as one of the most intriguing and original artists of his generation. His work is unique in its formal power and intellectual rigor, resisting confinement to one medium and roaming freely and fluently among drawing, photography, sculpture, installation and painting. Orozco deliberately blurs the boundary between the art(...)

Résumé:
Gabriel Orozco emerged at the beginning of the 1990s as one of the most intriguing and original artists of his generation. His work is unique in its formal power and intellectual rigor, resisting confinement to one medium and roaming freely and fluently among drawing, photography, sculpture, installation and painting. Orozco deliberately blurs the boundary between the art object and the everyday environment, situating his work in a place that merges art and reality, whether through exquisite drawings made on airplane boarding passes or sculptures composed of recovered trash. This publication examines two decades of the artist's production year by year, from 1989 through 2009. Each section is richly illustrated and includes a short text, based on interviews with the artist, that combines biographical information with a brief and focused discussion of selected works. Critical essays by Ann Temkin, Benjamin H.D. Buchloh and Briony Fer supplement these foundational and chronological explorations, providing new insights and strategies for grounding Orozco's work in the larger landscape of contemporary art production.

Résumé:
The Quarter at the “European Embankment” was an invited competition for the development of one of the most important development areas in central St. Petersburg, with the result being decided in March 2009. The 9.9 Hectare land, centrally located in the „Naberezhnaya Ewropy“ - „Europaufer“ industrial wasteland, lies on the small arm of the Neva River. Opposite the hermitage, stock exchange and directly downstream from the Peter-and-Paul fortress, the historical centre of the former Zarenstadt, the planned development is situated in a very prominent neighbourhood amongst almost all of the city’s landmarks. The renewal of the European-oriented city development and the adoption of typically local characteristics in the brief, ensured acceptance by the St Petersburg residents who recently demonstrated their concern for the city’s history by protesting plans for a high-rise in the world heritage area.
