Elastic Taboos
Exploring the taboos in contemporary Korean art reveals the picture of a society that has been torn by dreadful contradictions for millenniums and even in the recent past and will be informed by these oppositions also in the near future. Since the 1960s, the country has slowly recovered from the terrible war that ended in 1953 and began to change dramatically. In the course of five decades, it has transformed from a rural society to a rapidly growing urban world. These dramatic upheavals have affected the whole society and its rules. What was absolutely taboo yesterday has become permitted and even encouraged - and vice versa. Elastic Taboo assembles a broad spectrum of works by artists that have never been shown toget. With preface by Gerald Matt. Images of works in the catalogue are accompanied by artist interviews and biographies. -- Asia Art Archive, viewed 01/03/2021

Amy O'Neill
This journey through the American suburban imagination--by Pennsylvania-born Amy O'Neill, who currently lives and works in New York--reveals the uncanny that lies just beneath the banal. O'Neill's work is situated between the past and present, vernacular and global, high and low cultures. Her sculptures, installations and drawings trade in recycled bits of Americana like bald eagles, carnival midway games and basement rec rooms. As critic Gregory Williams writes, O'Neill's work looks back, "nostalgically to those sites in the American cultural landscape that leave a deep-fried residue on one's childhood memories." A recent installation, "Forest Park Forest Zoo" (2007), memorializes an abandoned roadside petting zoo that O'Neill found off a country road in the midst of a Gallitzin, Pennsylvania, forest. This first monograph includes a text by artist and writer John Miller.

About the Rose
A remarkable portrait of a web of artistic connections, traced outward from Jay DeFeo's uniquely generative work of art Through deep archival research and nuanced analysis, Elizabeth Ferrell examines the creative exchange that developed with and around The Rose, a monumental painting on which the San Francisco artist Jay DeFeo (1929-1989) worked almost exclusively from 1958 to 1966. From its early state to its dramatic removal from DeFeo's studio, the painting was a locus of activity among Fillmore District artists. Wallace Berman, Bruce Conner, Wally Hedrick, and Michael McClure each took up The Rose in their photographs, films, paintings, and poetry, which DeFeo then built upon in turn. The resulting works established a dialogue between artists rather than seamless cooperation. Illustrated with archival photographs and personal correspondence, in addition to the artworks, Ferrell's book traces how The Rose became a stage for experimentation with authorship and community, defying traditional definitions of collaboration and creating alternatives to Cold War America's political and artistic binaries.
