408,95 kr. With a career spanning over seven decades, Chase-Riboud's innovation in sculptural technique and materiality is characterised by the interplay between folds of cast bronze or aluminium and coils of wool and silk which are knotted, braided, looped, and woven. Combining materials with different qualities such as hard and soft, light against heavy, and tactile versus rigid, the artist's monumental sculptures explore themes of memory, monuments and power.The catalogue also features an illustrated chronology as well as a selection of the artist's own poetry and writing.Text: Gus Casely Hayford, Erin L. Thompson, Joseph Manca, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Yesomi Umolu and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye.Interview: Hanus Ulrich Obrist with Barbara Chase-Riboud.

Building on his process-based approach, Mendez uses Pre-Columbian ritual and memorial artifacts as a point of departure, evoking their function as both signifiers for and extensions of the human body. Transforming his material through a sequence of processes that include various imaging techniques such as digital scanning and three-dimensional printing, the artist's project speaks to the poetic connection between material matter, site, and memory. The accompanying publication for the exhibition-the first substantial monograph dedicated to his work-will be developed in close collaboration with the artist. Published by Logan Center Exhibitions, the publication features a foreword by director and curator Yesomi Umolu; a major contextualizing essay by scholar and curator Candice Hopkins; an interview with the artist; and a text by poet J. Michael Martinez. The resulting 124-page monograph will also include installation images from the exhibition at Logan Center Gallery"--

213,95 kr. Kapwani Kiwanga is a Canadian-born, Paris-based artist who creates installations, performances, and video art that bring together her training in anthropology and comparative religions, while also drawing on her interest in history, memory, and mythology. Kiwanga deliberately mixes truth and fiction in her work, confusing the two in order to create fantastical narratives that are nonetheless rooted in rigorous research. This book presents works by Kiwanga investigating disciplinary architectures that were presented at the Logan Center Gallery at the University of Chicago and the Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery in Toronto. Opening with a compelling array of installation images, research documents, and film stills from a newly commissioned video, the book also includes a curatorial essay surveying Kiwanga's work to date, an essay that offers an unfinished cartography of the genealogy of disciplinary spaces, and an interview with Kiwanga that covers her research interests and methodology.
