Exhibiting the Exhibition investigates the history of exhibiting up to the present day. The show at the Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden begins with predecessors to the modern museum and early art collections, then moves on to twentieth-century exhibition methods and the curatorial positions of today. The catalogue expands upon the exhibition concept: instead of photographing the exhibits for publication, various illustrators were hired to draw them, so that the book itself becomes an entirely independent instrument of "display." Besides the essays and interviews, the volume features works by John Bock, Mariana Castillo Deball, Andrea Fraser, Jeppe Hein, Julian Irlinger, Friedrich Kiesler, Louise Lawler, El Lissitzky, Karin Sander, Sebastian Thewes, Kaari Upson, Pae White, Fred Wilson, and many others.With a conversation between Bénédicte Savoy and Johan Holten.Exhibition: 2.3.--17.6.2018, Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden

"This catalogue accompanying the exhibition at Staatliche Kunsthalle Baden-Baden looks at the phenomenon of the hotel from various perspectives and explores the subject in a refreshing new way with numerous essays on art, literature, design, and film. The exhibition features an extensive body of visual work by many different artists, including William Turner, Max Beckmann, George Grosz, and many other key figures, looking at the historical development of the hotel from the beginnings of a new culture of travel in the 19th century leading up to the works of Sophie Calle and Martin Kippenberger in the 20th century. A tour of Baden-Baden's major hotels complements the historical treatment of the subject with site-specific and performative works shown alongside painting, photography, and film."--Back cover.

Living artists are the sole creative authority in regard to their body of work and often determine how it is perceived. But what happens when an artist dies at a young age, leaving behind the idea of an unfinished work?In this case, other factors determine the continued existence of the artist's oeuvre, especially within the tensions that arise from an early death. External forces are at play, and they dictate different kinds of success stories.The exhibition After An Early Death presents numerous case examples from the spectrum of posthumous strategies applied to an artist's body of work over the last 100 years. A modern prototype of the suffering artist is Vincent van Gogh, who barely sold...
