In the summer of 2008, German-Brazilian artist Janaina Tschäpe held a critically acclaimed solo exhibition at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin. Structured around the genetic form of the fabled Chimera from ancient myth, the exhibition showcased Tschäpeżs unique visual style with bright botanical notations intertwined with extraordinary film and photographic works, creating a fantastical environment where the everyday world metamorphosed into a mythical place populated by amazing creatures and fluorescent vegetation. This striking volume presents readers with an unrivalled look at the entire exhibition, bringing it to life with vibrant photographs, superb illustrations, and insightful commentaries.
What was your earliest childhood artwork that received recognition? When did you first consider yourself a professional artist? How has your studio's location influenced your work? How do you choose titles? Do you have a favorite color? Joe Fig asked a wide range of celebrated artists these and many other questions during the illuminating studio visits documented in Inside the Artist's Studio—the follow-up to his acclaimed 2009 book, Inside the Painter's Studio. In this remarkable collection, twenty-four painters, video and mixed-media artists, sculptors, and photographers reveal highly idiosyncratic production tools and techniques, as well as quotidian habits and strategies for getting work done: the music they listen to; the hours they keep; and the relationships with gallerists and curators, friends, family, and fellow artists that sustain them outside the studio.

What is the subject of video? Charlotte Klink traces the development of electromagnetism in the pursuit of »Electric Seeing« that emerged in the 19th century as well as its curious relation to psychoanalysis and the contemporary discovery of the structure of the human psyche. In doing so, she exposes how this development laid the foundation of what we know today as »video«. This comprehensive theory of video entails a discussion of the technological, historical, and etymological roots, the media-theoretical concepts of medium and index, the philosophical and art-theoretical environment in which video emerged in the 1960s, the psychoanalytic concept of the phantasm, and artworks by artists such as Yael Bartana, Hito Steyerl, and Bjørn Melhus.

La muestra pretende ofrecer un panorama de la creación artística en la Europa actual, reuniendo artistas procedentes de contextos culturales muy diferentes entre sí que exponen la idea de vida colectiva, de cohabitación y de intercambio en el seno de la nión Europea. Está localizada en cuatro emplazamientos de la villa de Sain-Tropez: la Citadelle y el Musée de l'Annonciade acogen esculturas e instalaciones realizadas por artistas europeos -hombres y mujeres- cuyas formas evocan la fragilidad, la transparencia, el deseo, la protección, la gracia, el placer, manifestaciones de lo eterno femenino; el Lavoir Vasserot, lugar de encuentro cotidiano de los lenceros a lo largo de los siglos, ha inspirado a Yves Savourin para presentar los trabajos de mujeres artistas que utilizan la técnica de los bordados de antaño en la creación de formas contemporáneas; la Salle Despas alberga exclusivamente obras de mujeres artistas del siglo XXI: instalaciones, videos, esculturas, pinturas, obras sobre papel y fotografías.
