Electric Seeing
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.
Contemporary Novelists and the Aesthetics of Twenty-First Century American Life
Contemporary Novelists and the Aesthetics of Twenty-First Century American Life gives us a new way to view contemporary art novels, asking the key question: How do contemporary writers imagine aesthetic experience? Examining the works of some of the most popular names in contemporary fiction and art criticism, including Zadie Smith, Teju Cole, Siri Hustvedt, Ben Lerner, Rachel Kushner, and others, Alexandra Kingston-Reese finds that contemporary art novels are seeking to reconcile the negative feelings of contemporary life through a concerted critical realignment in understanding artistic sensibility, literary form, and the function of the aesthetic. Kingston-Reese reveals how contemporary writers refract and problematize aesthetic experience, illuminating an uneasiness with failure: firstly, about the failure of aesthetic experiences to solve and save; and secondly, the literary inability to articulate the emotional dissonance caused by aesthetic experiences now.

Der siebte BMW Art Guide by Independent Collectors
Der überarbeitete und erweiterte BMW Art Guide by Independent Collectors präsentiert 304 öffentlich zugängliche Privatsammlungen zeitgenössischer Kunst – große wie kleine, bekannte wie noch unentdeckte. Die prägnanten Sammlungsporträts mit zahlreichen farbigen Abbildungen entführen die Lesenden in 51 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 internationalen Online-Plattform für Sammler zeitgenössischer Kunst, hervorgegangen ist. Sammler*innen, Galerist*innen, Künstler*innen und Journalist*innen 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.
Art, Critical Pedagogy and Capitalism
This book offers a re-examination of art production in terms that understand the process of learning as the production of art itself. Drawing on the thought of Ranciere, Freire, Gramsci and Mouffe, it provides an account of the politics of art production and a theoretical understanding of hegemonic power, while developing a view of method in critical pedagogy founded on the process of ‘making adversaries’. Through a re-evaluation of the relationships between process, arts production and pedagogy within accelerated developments of neoliberalism, the author uncovers ways of forming a more co-operative and less conflictual approach to democratic politics. An investigation of ways in which art practice can be used to engage with critical pedagogy in relation to a commodity driven neoliberal agenda, Art, Critical Pedagogy and Capitalism constitutes a radical rethinking of art making, and an attempt to address the paradox between the proliferation of the commodity of learning and the perceived crisis of arts education. As such, it will appeal to scholars of education, pedagogy and the arts with interests in social and critical theory.
Simultaneous Spaces
Michelle Jezierski (geb. 1981 in Berlin, lebt und arbeitet in Berlin) lässt in ihrer Malerei simultane Räume entstehen, die von Licht durchflutet sind. Helldunkel-Kontraste, gedeckte und offene Farbtöne erzeugen darin eine einzigartige Atmosphäre, die von Tiefe und Dynamik geprägt ist. Der Künstlerin geht es genauso um die Wahrnehmung dieser konstruierten Räume wie um die Weite natürlicher Landschaften. In ihren Gemälden tarieren leuchtende Farben und geometrische Störungen die Gegensätze von Ordnung und Chaos, Licht und Schatten, Innen und Außen, Struktur und Fließendem aus. Simultaneous Spaces, die erste umfassende Monografie der Künstlerin, zeigt 45 Werke, die zwischen 2017 und 2022 gemalt wurden.
