We Represent Ourselves to the World

  • Categories: Art

This distinctive book centers around an installation by Stephen Prina as a frame within which to explore themes vital to its making, including artistic production, site-specificity, curatorial practice, photography, architecture, and institutional critique. This multi-layered work is reevaluated by the curator, Jenelle Porter. She begins with Prina's single-image documentation of the 16-year exhibition schedule at the Heitzler Gallery (1975-1991). This final set of 163 photographs was then installed in the Heitzler Gallery, along with assorted elements as part of Prina's complete exhibition. Essays by James Meyer and Wilhelm Schurmann.

Bridget Riley: The Stripe Paintings 1961-2014

  • Categories: Art

Published on the occasion of Bridget Riley’s major exhibition at David Zwirner in London in the summer of 2014, this fully illustrated catalogue offers intimate explorations of paintings and works on paper produced by the legendary British artist over the past fifty years, focusing specifically on her recurrent use of the stripe motif. Riley has devoted her practice to actively engaging viewers through elementary shapes such as lines, circles, curves, and squares, creating visual experiences that at times trigger optical sensations of vibration and movement.

From the author of the bestselling phenomenon The Hare with Amber Eyes As you may have guessed by now, I am not in your house by accident. I know your street rather well. The Camondos lived just a few doors away from Edmund de Waal's forebears. Like de Waal's family, they were part of belle époque high society. They were also targets of anti-Semitism. Count Moïse de Camondo created a spectacular house filled with art for his son to inherit. Over a century later, de Waal explores the lavish rooms and detailed archives and, in a haunting series of letters addressed to Camondo, he tells us what happened next. 'Illuminating... A wonderful tribute to a family and to an idea' Guardian 'Letters to Camondo immerses you in another age... Dazzling' Financial Times
