Hot Art, Cold War – Northern and Western European Writing on American Art 1945-1990 is one of two text anthologies that trace the reception of American art in Europe during the Cold War era through primary sources. With the exception of those originally published in English, the majority of these texts are translated into English for the first time from eight languages, and are introduced by scholarly essays. They offer a representative selection of the diverse responses to American art in Great Britain, Ireland, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, West Germany (FRG), Austria, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland.

Hariton Pushwagner
«Det er en påfallende, ja, nesten grotesk, mangel på samsvar mellom denne nevrotiske, selvhelende trangen til å skape kvalitet i verket og måten han tok hånd om sitt eget liv på. Verket falt på plass takket være Pushwagners ærgjerrighet, mens livet gikk opp i limingen, sprakk og falt fra hverandre på grunn av slendrian.» "Hariton Pushwagner" er den første fullstendige biografien om den myteomspunne og folkekjære pop art-kunstneren. Pushwagner var selv en viktig kilde, og boka rommer store mengder nytt og ukjent stoff. Han var en moderne Peer Gynt, og vi følger ham fra barndom og oppvekst i Oslo, til en utagerende og selvdestruktiv tilværelse preget av rus. Leseren tas med på studie- og arbeidsopphold i inn- og utland, blant annet i Paris, Midtøsten, London og New York, og ikke minst får vi ta del i den store suksessen han opplevde i sine siste leveår. Boka presenterer en høyaktuell kunstner som gjennom hele karrieren skildret den vestlige sivilisasjonen på vei mot ragnarok, krig, undertrykkelse, robotifisering, apati og forurensning. Først og fremst er det en brutalt ærlig fortelling om et ekstremt kunstnerliv.
Historical Dictionary of Contemporary Art
The Historical Dictionary of Contemporary Art illuminates important artists, styles, and movements of the past 70 years. Beginning with the immediate post-World War II period, it encompasses earlier 20th century masters, including Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Henry Moore, Alberto Giacometti, Joan Miró, Jean Dubuffet, Stuart Davis, Georgia O’Keeffe, and other well-known figures, who remained creatively productive, while also inspiring younger generations. The book covers subsequent developments, including abstract expressionism, happenings, pop art, minimalism, conceptual art, arte povera, feminist art, photorealism, neo-expressionism, and postmodernism, as well as the contributions of su...
Face to Face
Since its emergence in the 1980s and 90s, the Daros Collection in Zurich has accumulated about 280 works by 30 outstanding North American and European artists. It possesses one of the finest collections of early Warhol, and major works by Sigmar Polke, Barbara Kruger, Alfredo Jaar and Louise Bourgeois among many others. In 2000, when the strength and integrity of this collection had been established, the museum boldly struck off in a new direction, and the Daros Latin America Collection was founded. Already comprising roughly 1,000 works by around 100 artists including Carlos Amorales, José Bedia, Alfredo Jaar, Gego, Guillermo Kuitca, Vik Muniz, among others, it is now the largest collectio...
