Face to Face
Since its emergence in the 1980s and 90s, the Daros Collection in Zurich has accumulated about 280 works by 30 outstanding North American and European artists. It possesses one of the finest collections of early Warhol, and major works by Sigmar Polke, Barbara Kruger, Alfredo Jaar and Louise Bourgeois among many others. In 2000, when the strength and integrity of this collection had been established, the museum boldly struck off in a new direction, and the Daros Latin America Collection was founded. Already comprising roughly 1,000 works by around 100 artists including Carlos Amorales, José Bedia, Alfredo Jaar, Gego, Guillermo Kuitca, Vik Muniz, among others, it is now the largest collectio...
Cantos cuentos colombianos
Cantos/Cuentos Colombianos is the most comprehensive exhibition of contemporary Colombian art ever shown in Europe. Ten widely recognized Colombian artists present a previously unknown world of images and experience worthy of international attention. With great formal and substantive rigor, the artists deal with their country and its troubled past and present through installation, video, photography, objects, performance and sound works. The book includes extensive photo-documentation of the artists' studios as well as in-depth interviews. Four prominent Colombian thinkers of varying political persuasions discuss political, social and cultural issues facing their country in enlightening and thought-provoking essays.

Haunting Without Ghosts
For half a century, cultural production in Colombia has labored under the weight of magical realism—above all, the works of Gabriel García Márquez—where ghosts told stories about the country’s violent past and warned against a similarly gruesome future. Decades later, the story of violence in Colombia is no less horrific, but the critical resources of magical realism are depleted. In their wake comes "spectral realism." Juliana Martínez argues that recent Colombian novelists, filmmakers, and artists—from Evelio Rosero and William Vega to Beatriz González and Erika Diettes—share a formal and thematic concern with the spectral but shift the focus from what the ghost is toward wha...

Privat gesammelt - öffentlich präsentiert
Während im deutschsprachigen Raum Kunstmuseen traditionell Einrichtungen der öffentlichen Hand sind, lässt sich seit den 1990er Jahren eine Gegenbewegung erkennen: Immer mehr private Sammlerinnen und Sammler treten mit eigenen und privat finanzierten Museen und Kunsträumen an die Öffentlichkeit. Erstmals werden in diesem Buch Gründungsmotive und Zielsetzungen privater Kunstinitiativen erforscht und ihre Erfolgsfaktoren im Vergleich zu öffentlichen Museen wissenschaftlich fundiert und differenziert erläutert. Die Erkenntnisse sind sowohl für die aktuelle Museumsforschung und das Anwendungsgebiet des Kulturmanagements als auch für das Verständnis des gegenwärtigen Kunstbetriebs und...
