Installation Art between Image and Stage
Installationskunsten har gået sin sejrsgang verden over, og er her i det 21. århundrede en både vel- og anerkendt bestanddel af samtidskunsten. Med påvirkning fra og udveksling mellem billedkunst på den ene side og performanceteater på den anden befinder installationskunst sig – som bogens titel viser – netop i feltet mellem billede og scene. I Installation Art: Between Image and Stage undersøger Anne Ring Petersen grundstenene for en af nutidens mest udbredte kunstformer. Installationer er – ligesom skulpturer – tredimensionelle formationer eller billeddannelser, men i modsætning til skulpturen er installationen karakteriseret ved at være formet af rum eller rumlige scenogr...
Brand New Animals
Jules Spinatsch's answer to the traditional distinction between applied & free photography can best be described as a cheerful "do-as-you-please" approach. His independent works express his personal artistic beliefs: they are keen-sighted & probingly experimental, capturing atmospheric moments of Spinatsch's immediate surroundings. His images are of an enthralling beauty, & in his close-ups Spinatsch conveys the relevance & charm of minute details. In his series We Will Never Be So Close Again he portrays motorists snoozing at the wheel--images that border on the ethereal. Brand New Animals deals with the artistic depiction of nature, which Spinatsch introduces to the reader as an alternative world.

The judiciously arranged and edited interviews also address the benefits and liabilities of foundations and trusts ...
Intelligence Work
Intelligence Work establishes a new genealogy of American social documentary, proposing a fresh critical approach to the aesthetic and political issues of nonfiction cinema and media. Jonathan Kahana argues that the use of documentary film by intellectuals, activists, government agencies, and community groups constitutes a national-public form of culture, one that challenges traditional oppositions between official and vernacular speech, between high art and popular culture, and between academic knowledge and common sense. Placing iconic images and the work of celebrated filmmakers next to overlooked and rediscovered productions, Kahana demonstrates how documentary collects and delivers the evidence of the American experience to the public sphere, where it lends force to political movements and gives substance to the social imaginary.
