Loris Gréaud
"Cellar Door" is a spectacle stretching in time and space. As an exhibition, it is the most ambitious project of French artist Loris Gréaud so far, starting at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris and continuing at the ICA London, conceived as musical in progress. As a book, it includes the project's synopsis and musical scores, thus serving as the libretto of this opera of a new genre.

Loris Gréaud
Die Werke des konzeptuell arbeitenden Loris Gréaud umfassen Installationen, Filme und Architektur. So auch sein fünf Jahre dauerndes und über den ganzen Globus verteiltes Langzeitprojekt The Unplayed Notes. Jede Station ist ein neuer Ansatz, die Frage zu beantworten, wie sich Unsichtbares darstellen lässt. Man begegnet einem Experimentierfeld unterschiedlichster Medien wie Glas, Fotografie, Skulptur und Video, um Temperatur, Lichtwellen oder Zeit eine Gestalt zu geben. Es geht Gréaud dabei nicht um ein fertiges Werk, sondern um Stadien künstlerischen Schaffens. Der Prozess des Suchens selbst wird in seinen Installationen sichtbar. Dieses Buch entfaltet von Station zu Station die künstlerische Entwicklung und folgt dem titelgebenden Gedanken Karlheinz Stockhausens: Die eigentliche Bedeutung eines Werkes liegt in seinen ungespielten und ungehörten Noten.
Loris Greaud the Unplayed Notes (2012-2017)
The works by the conceptual artist Loris Gréaud include installations, films, and architecture, as does his long-term project taking place around the world, The Unplayed Notes. Viewers encounter an experimental field of diverse media, all of which attempt to give form to temperature, light waves, or time. Gréaud is interested in the stages of artistic production. The process of searching per se becomes visible in his installations. This book reveals the development of his art, in accordance with the ideas of Karlheinz Stockhausen, which gave the book its name: the actual meaning of a work lies in its unplayed, unheard notes. It includes as well an introduction to his upcoming project The Underground Sculpture Park that will be inaugurated in the Oaxaca desert and two complementary essays by the artist?s long-time collaborator, outstanding theorist, and curator Nicolas Bourriaud.0LORIS GRÉAUD (*1979, Eaubonne) studied at the Conservatoire national Supérieur de musique et de danse de Paris and at the École nationale supérieure d'arts de Paris Cergy. His works are in prominent collections, and have been seen in museum and gallery exhibitions around the globe
Scale in Contemporary Sculpture
The first book to devote serious attention to questions of scale in contemporary sculpture, this study considers the phenomenon within the interlinked cultural and socio-historical framework of the legacies of postmodern theory and the growth of global capitalism. In particular, the book traces the impact of postmodern theory on concepts of measurement and exaggeration, and analyses the relationship between this philosophy and the sculptural trend that has developed since the early 1990s. Rachel Wells examines the arresting international trend of sculpture exploring scale, including American precedents from the 1970s and 1980s and work by the 'Young British Artists'. Noting that the emergenc...

Hard Bodies
Shrill, beefy, drilled - hard bodies populate pop culture and science books alike. The essays in this volume trace the flexing muscles of the hard body in various disciplines and spatio-temporal contexts: from the medieval wooer in tights to the soldier in a bombsuit, from sculpted marble bodies to the treacherous images of German Terrormadels, from 19th century self-improvement manuals to 21st century technoporn, from Ballets Russes to Charlie's Angels, from Afro-Brazilian male sleeping beauties to the black female war machine.
