Jan Fabre
Scultore, disegnatore, scrittore, regista, editore: sono solo alcuni dei campi creativi investigati da Jan Fabre, un artista che da oltre trent'anni porta avanti un'intensa ricerca interdisciplinare e che presenta, in questo volume, l'opera installata presso Casa La Marrana di Ameglia (La Spezia), intitolata Il Rifugio (Per la Tomba del computer sconosciuto) e costituita da un ammasso di 100 croci di legno ricoperte di inchiostro blu Bic, su cui sono scritti nomi di insetti. Le immagini, scattate dal fotografo Aurelio Amendola, sono precedute da un saggio critico di Giacinto Di Pietrantonio, curatore dell'esposizione, e dai testi tratti da una conversazione tra Jan Fabre, Luigi Ficacci, Giacinto Di Pietrantonio e Alberto Garutti. Segue una postfazione di Achille Bonito Oliva. Edizione a tiratura limitata. Annotation Supplied by Informazioni Editoriali
Paul Mccarthy
Los-Angeles-based artist Paul McCarthy (b.1945) creates Disneyesque installations, sculptures of animal/vegetable/human hybrids and slapstick performances in a purge of a national subconscious. The psycho-sexual desires and anxieties induced by the media and the built environment of contemporary America emerge in his collisions of plastic prosthetic limbs and condiments that stand in for bodily fluids. These works have been variously deployed: through live actions, often documented on video, and more recently in outsized figures and artificial rural environments, combined in overtly sexual ways. McCarthy's work echoes that of European artists such as Joseph Beuys or the Viennese Aktionistes,...

Zhang Xiaogang. Ediz. italiana e inglese
All the phases of Zhang Xiaogang's personal painting style are retraced here, from the 'Big Family' period to the dreamlike one and his photographic production. Giacinto di Pietrantonio (director of GAMEC) addresses his art from a sociological and Western standpoint and tries to explain the phenomenon of Chinese art in terms of the market. Huang Zhuan takes an inside look at the artist's various artistic periods, intending to explain what it meant for the artist to live through the Chinese cultural revolution and Tiananmen Square. The book ends with an interview with the artist edited by Eleonora Battiston.
