Der fünfte BMW Art Guide by Independent Collectors

  • Categories: Art

Der überarbeitete und erweiterte BMW Art Guide by Independent Collectors präsentiert fast 300 öffentlich zugängliche Privatsammlungen zeitgenössischer Kunst – große wie kleine, bekannte wie noch unentdeckte. Die prägnanten Sammlungsporträts mit zahlreichen farbigen Abbildungen entführen den Leser in mehr als vierzig Länder und häufig in Regionen oder Stadtviertel abseits des Gewohnten. Dieser praktische Guide ist die gemeinschaftliche Publikation, die aus der seit einigen Jahren bestehenden Partnerschaft zwischen BMW und Independent Collectors, der internationale Online-Plattform für Sammler zeitgenössischer Kunst hervorgegangen ist. Sammler, Galeristen, Künstler und Journalisten halfen bei der umfassenden Recherche und Überarbeitung des einmaligen Standardwerks. Weder im Internet noch in Buchform existiert bislang eine vergleichbare Zusammenstellung von internationalen Privatkollektionen, darunter einige, die ihre Türen für Kunstinteressierte und Kenner erstmalig öffnen.

Pioneers of the Global Art Market

By the turn of the 20th century, Paris was the capital of the art world. While this is usually understood to mean that Paris was the center of art production and trading, this book examines a phenomenon that has received little attention thus far: Paris-based dealers relied on an ever-expanding international network of peers. Many of the city's galleries capitalized on foreign collectors' interest by expanding globally and proactively cultivating transnational alliances. If the French capital drew artists from around the world-from Cassatt to Picasso-the contemporary-art market was international in scope. Art dealers deliberately tapped into a growing pool of discerning collectors in norther...

Since 2008, Berlin has boasted yet another art attraction. That was when Christian Boros opened the home of his private collection in Berlin-Mitte, a bunker built in 1941 that was converted to accommodate his art. To date, 90,000 visitors have seen the first exhibition featuring selected works, exploring the eighty rooms on five floors after registering for guided tours held on weekends. Starting in the fall of 2011, a new set of works will be on view, once again staged by the artists themselves with a keen sense for the architectonic setting. The new hanging features paintings by Tomma Abts, Franz Ackermann, and Thomas Scheibitz, installations by Klara Lid�n and Alicja Kwade, and photographs by Wolfgang Tillmans, to name only some of the artists included. This up-to-date book of the collection features high-quality illustrations. The collector himself speaks about the art in a wide-ranging conversation with Heinz-Norbert Jocks.

About Us

Grappling with sweeping social changes during the past thirty years of China's global rise, young artists have explored and crafted new identities through photography. While their works range across subjects--capturing bustling cityscapes and quiet landscapes, framing exuberant hopefulness and melancholic doubt--their experimentation speaks to a generational need for new aesthetic tools in an uncertain world. Featuring 150 photographs from the collections of Alexander Tutsek-Siftung, About Us offers a vibrant and in-depth survey of contemporary Chinese photography.
