The Aesthetics of Taste: Eating within the Realm of Art
When does eating become art? The Aesthetics of Taste answers this question by exploring the position of taste in contemporary culture and the manner in which taste meanders its way into the realm of art. The argument identifies aesthetic values not only in artistic practices, where they are naturally expected, but also in the spaces of everydayness that seem far removed from the domain of fine arts. As such, it seeks to grasp what artists – who offer aesthetic as well as culinary experiences – actually try to communicate, while also pondering whether a cook can be an artist.

The publication illuminates her diverse body of work in an international context and demonstrates the remarkable influence this fascinating personality had on later generations of artists, for instance, as a feminist role model.

Gerhard Rühm
Das Kunstforum Wien zeigt mit Gerhard Rühm im Herbst 2017 einen der letzten Universalkünstler. Als Komponist, Pianist, Performer, Literat und bildender Künstler war der 1930 in Wien geborene und heute in Köln lebende Gerhard Rühm ein Grenzgänger zwischen den einzelnen Kunstdisziplinen, lange bevor Begriffe wie 'Crossover' und 'Intermedialität' in der künstlerischen Praxis zum guten Ton gehörten. Im Zwischenraum von Wort und Bild, von Sprache und Musik und von Schrift und Zeichnung sucht Rühm eine stete Erweiterung medialer Ausdrucksformen, die auf konzeptuelle wie humorvolle Weise Sehgewohnheiten durchbrechen.0Der begleitende Ausstellungskatalog legt mit einem umfangreichen Bildteil, drei Essays aus (sprach- )philosophischer und kunsthistorischer Perspektive sowie einem Interview mit dem Künstler die vielschichtigen Facetten von Rühms richtungsweisendem Werk offen.00Exhibition: Kunstforum Wien, Vienna, Austria (04.10.2017-28.01.2018).
Oskar Kokoschka.
Oskar Kokoschka (1886 1980) is, along with Francis Picabia and Pablo Picasso, one of a generation of artists who retained their allegiance to figurative painting after the Second World War, even as abstract art was consolidating its predominance. This retrospective traces the motifs and motivations of a painter who felt at home in no fewer than five countries. It brings together 100 paintings and an equal number of works on paper, photographs and letters from all phases of his career.

The Art Book Tradition in Twentieth-Century Europe
Investigating the complex history of visual art?s engagement with literature, this collection demonstrates that the art of the book is a fully interdisciplinary and distinctly modern form. The essays in the collection develop new critical approaches to the analysis of twentieth-century bookworks and explore ways in which European writers and painters challenged the boundary between visual and linguistic expression in the content, production, and physical form of books. The Art Book Tradition in Twentieth-Century Europe offers a detailed examination of word-image relations in forms ranging from the livre d?artiste to personal diaries and almanacs. It analyzes innovative attempts to challenge familiar hierarchies between texts and images, to fuse different expressive media, and to reconceptualize traditional notions of ekphrasis. Giving consideration to the material qualities of books, the works discussed in this collection also test and celebrate the act of reading, while locating it in the context of other sensory experiences. Essays examine works by Dufy, Matisse, Beckett, Kandinsky, Braque, and Ponge, among other European artists and writers active during the twentieth century.
