Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. "Penelope Umbrico: Photographs" offers a radical reinterpretation of everyday consumer and vernacular images. As the artist describes, she works "within the virtual world of consumer marketing and social media, traveling through the relentless flow of seductive images, objects and information that surrounds us, searching for decisive moments--but in these worlds, decisive moments are cultural absurdities." Umbrico finds these moments in the printed pages of consumer product mail-order cataloguess, travel and leisure brochures, and online sites such as Craigslist, eBay and Flickr. By identifying and isolating image typologies--candy-colored horizons and sunsets, books used as props--the farcical and surreal nature of the lingua franca of consumerism and recreation is brought to new light. "Penelope Umbrico: Photographs" presents a unique and challenging approach to quintessential issues of representation in contemporary culture, including how images are used to construct and communicate consumer desire, and whether or not the growing volume of images we view online fosters a critical visual literacy. This volume, Umbrico's first monograph, is accompanied by a series of essays, appendices of source material, excerpts from theoretical works and other material serving as resources for engaging further with the work and issues involved. Offers a reinterpretation of every-day consumer and vernacular images.

Among the offerings of used office desks for sale are the office plants whose job it was to make office employees feel more human -- to give them something to care for in these synthetic modular spaces. The objects pictured in these images are the aftermath and by-products of a Modernism infused with a disparity between free market optimism and its dystopic result." Signed by Author.…

Edizione originale di 500 esemplari numerati (Original edition of 500 numbered copies). . With Out of Order, Penelope Umberico creates a unique reflection on the 2008 financial crisis in artists book form.The book is unbound, with the images folded in half and cradled together. A red elastic holds the pages and cover together. The book contains:  - Images of Used Office Desks for Sale - folded into the book, the images get broken up with intersecting pages so that each desk is incomplete unless the book is pulled apart.- Repurposed and unstapled (and therefor out of order) pages of Out of Order: Used Office Desks for Sale (ink book), and inserted between the folded images of the desks. Un-bound (set free, so to speak) ? they create hybrid desks and puzzle-like geometric compositions within their own spreads and with those they are set against, further abstracting the ideologies they represent.  - Inserted among, and slicing through these mismatched desks are folded images of the Used Office Plants for Sale. They too become hybridized, one plant grafted onto another, creating a strange new office horticulture.- A 8.5? x 68? text piece listing all the bank failures in the United States from 2008 ? 2013 from the US Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation via Wikipedia wraps around the pages into an accordion at the back of the book.Con Out of Order, Penelope Umberico crea una riflessione  sulla crisi finanziaria del 2008 in forma di libro d'artista.Il libro non è rilegato. Un elastico rosso tiene insieme le pagine e la copertina. Il libro contiene:- Immagini di scrivanie per ufficio in vendita: le immagini in tavole ripiegate vengono interrotte con pagine che si intersecano, in modo che ogni scrivania sia incompleta a meno che il libro non venga smontato.- Le immagini in tavole ripiegate delle scrivanie creano figure ibride e composizioni geometriche simili a puzzle all'interno delle stesse pagine e con quelle contro cui sono contrapposte, astraendo ulteriormente le ideologie che rappresentano.- Inserite e tagliate attraverso queste immagini di scrivanie sono le immagini ripiegate delle piante per ufficio. Anche loro si ibridano, una pianta si innesta su un'altra, creando una strana nuova orticoltura da ufficio.- Un testo di 16 pagine preso da Wikipedia e ripiegato a soffietto elenca tutti i fallimenti bancari negli Stati Uniti dal 2008 al 2013- Una fotografia sciolta Edizione originale di 500 esemplari numerati (Original edition of 500 numbered copies).
