The exhibition, curated by Kasper KÃ nig, Brigitte Franzen and Carina Plath presents the works of 35 artists from all over the world. The catalogue is divided into three sections. The first section gives a comprehensive survey of the works featured in the exhibition, supplemented by project materials and artist texts. The middle section is comprised of a glossary on the major theme in which concepts circulating in the art scene are confronted with specialist and theoretical terms, giving rise to a flexible network of information. A total of 131 terms are described and elucidated by 74 authors and juxtaposed with one antoher through a system of cross-references. An annotated bibliography by Claudia Buttner on the theme of art and public(s), presenting selected literature chronologically from 1970 to the present day, completes the catalogue.Been enough biennials? Skulptur Projekte Munster only happens every 10 years. This, its fourth iteration (following 1977, 1987 and 1997), invites artists from all over the world--many of whom are returning to the city and the event--to create new site-specific works. Thus Michael Asher brings back his trailer and parks at sites he first sussed out in 1977, continuing to explore the conflicts rigid between form and mobile space, and to document the dramatic transformation of the urban environment over four decades. Guy Ben-Ner equips bicycles with screens and places them around the city; By pedaling, participants control the speed and direction of a film of the artist doing the same. Guillaume Bijl mocks up an archaeological site 25 feet square and 18 feet deep, whose steep walls imitate layers of soil. Visitors climb a grassy hill to peer into the pit from a balustrade; in the pit, a 14-foot, shingle-roofed spire topped by a weathercock preens. This extensive book inspired by and documenting the festival opens on 35 sections between 4 and 16 pages long, each designed by the artist and illuminating his or her work in text and images. Its second half comes in the form of a glossary of more than 100 key concepts linked to the subject of art in public spaces; artists, art historians, philosophers, urbanists, architects, sociologists and other writers weighing in with definitions from their respective disciplinary perspectives. Participants include Francis Alys, Isa Genzken, Mike Kelley, Rosemarie Trockel, Bruce Nauman, Martha Rosler and Pae White.pp. 556 illusts. #171224 Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
