Christine Streuli
Christine Streuli (*1975 in Bern) is one of an international, up-and-coming generation of artists devoted to the medium of painting and directing the discourse on this traditional genre into new channels. In her lavish, imagistic worlds the artist reflects on painting strategies and experiments with the suggestive charisma of form, color, ornamentation, sign, and pattern. The characteristic aesthetic of color and form make her works of art unmistakable. Starting with a group of works created for the Kunstmuseum Luzern, this publication is the first to offer an extensive survey of Streuli's body of work. Numerous reproductions of paintings as well as photographs of installations enable experiencing the multifaceted qualities of her painting. Informative essays explain the artist's working method and world of thought. Exhibition schedule: Kunstmuseum Luzern, July 6-October 13, 2013

Richly illustrated and accompanied by companion CD and DVD in PAL format, this volume traces the history of Swiss art education and features perspectives that span the entire curriculum. "ZHdK A Future for the Arts "is not just a portrait of a single university, but a rendering of Swiss cultural history of the past fifty years. "

A timely and expansive survey of a groundbreaking American art movement that overturned aesthetic hierarchies in a riot of color and ornamentation The Pattern and Decoration movement emerged in the 1970s as an embrace of long-dismissed art forms associated with the decorative. Pioneering artists such as Miriam Schapiro (1923-2015), Joyce Kozloff (b. 1942), Robert Kushner (b. 1949), and others appropriated patterns, frequently from non-Western decorative arts, to produce intricate, often dizzying or gaudy designs in media ranging from painting, sculpture, and collage to ceramics, installation art, and performance. This dazzling book showcases an astonishing array of works by more than 40 arti...
