David Renggli
David Renggli (b. Zurich, 1974; lives and works in Zurich) is always good for a surprise, piquing the art world's curiosity with a unique blend of spectacle, humor, and poetry. Unexpected conjunctions of diverse everyday materials and motifs are the characteristic feature of the artist's heterogeneous repertoire, which encompasses sculptural objects, sound and light installations, photographs, and reverse glass paintings. His creations often feel familiar, but closer inspection reveals them to be surreal and absurd grotesques. That moment of bafflement has often been a guiding aesthetic principle in David Renggli's work. Another central theme is the system of language, and especially its susceptibility to misunderstandings and equivocations, which lend a thrilling edge to human interaction. Time and again, confusion, surprise, incomprehension are the stock of Renggli's art. The book is based on the solo exhibition "Scaramouche" at Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen in 2014 and surveys Renggli's oeuvre from his earliest to his most recent works. With essays by Giovanni Carmine, Milovan Farronato, and Boris Pofalla and a conversation between Hilde Teerlinck and David Renggli.

Tiré du site internet de l'éditeur: "Als Kind der Postmoderne verwebt der Schweizer Künstler David Renggli in seinem Werk Populärkultur und kunsthistorische Topoi mit verspielter Leichtigkeit zu einem homogenen Ganzen. Ausgangspunkt des vorliegenden Buchs bildet Rengglis Ausstellung The Charm of Ignorance (2013) im Museum Bellpark in Kriens. Renggli montierte in einer rigiden Petersburger Hängung rund 2000 Bilder. Die Collagen verschränken Gegensätzliches, indem sie aus Bildern von Modemagazinen und Pornoheften, Kunstkatalogen und gefundener Fotografie schöpfen. Der Betrachter verliert sich im Schauen und gerät in einen tranceartigen Zustand; die Inszenierung ist ein Fest des kreati...

Science and Art Symposium 2000
Some words about SCART 2000. SCART stands for science and art. SCART meetings are organized in a loose time sequence by an international group of scientists, most of them fluid-dynamicists. The first meeting was held in Hong-Kong, the second one in Berlin, and the third, and latest, one in Zurich. SCART meetings include a scientific conference and a number of art events. The intention is to restart a dialogue between scientists and artists which was so productive in the past. To achieve this goal several lectures given by scientists at the conference are intended for a broader public. In the proceedings they are denoted as SCART lectures. The artists in tum address the main theme of the conference with their contributions. The lectures at SCART 2000 covered the entire field of fluiddynamics, from laminar flows in biological systems to astrophysical events, such as the explosion of a neutron star. The main exhibition by Dutch and Swiss artists showed video and related art under the title 'Walking on Air'. Experimental music was performed in two concerts.
