Hardback. Condición: Very Good. Larger-than-life biblical figures from a renowned American sculptor American artist Charles Ray (born 1953) has devoted most of the past decade to creating sculptures of figures, animals and inanimate objects, often carved from blocks of metal in a state-of-the-art process that combines skilled handwork with industrial technology. This monograph reflects on the fabrication and installation of Adam and Eve (2023), a major sculpture by Ray that is currently on view at Manhattan West, Brookfield Properties? development adjacent to Moynihan Train Hall and Madison Square Garden. The sculpture, which depicts the biblical figures Adam and Eve in their old age, consists of two large-scale humans rendered in solid stainless steel at nearly 10 feet tall. A significant and highly personal text by art historian Darby English, exploring this work and Ray?s illustrious career, is accompanied by extensive photography illustrating the installed sculptures and their creation.…

Hardback. Condición: New. A witty, touching and delightful exploration of holes from the author of The VolumeA handsomely designed picture-book for children and adults, The Hole Book explores the many meanings, associations and forms of holes in a delightful narrative of discovery. The book's narrator is an explorer full of questions and curiosity: "Some holes I dug myself. I poked my finger into slices of bread, sheets of paper, and the sand of beaches all over the world." When they grow up they become an explorer of holes, visiting caves, grottos, mineshafts, springs and cavities, making maps of their adventures. Failing to find any literature on the topic, they decided to write their own book celebrating holes.Author Luis Camnitzer is a celebrated artist known for art that deconstructs accepted frameworks and exposes systems of power. In his first children's book, The Volume (2021), he created a beautiful book about space and spatiality. Here he continues to provoke wonder with appeal to people of all ages.Luis Camnitzer (born 1937) is a German-born Uruguayan artist, curator, art critic and academic who was at the forefront of 1960s Conceptual art. He lives and works in Great Neck, New York, and taught at SUNY Old Westbury, where he is currently a professor emeritus.…

Hardback. Condición: New. From the dot to the line to infinity: a whimsical children's book about space and spatiality, with colorful illustrations and a large gatefold that illuminates the story.One very dark night, a long time ago, there was a big explosion. It was the "Big Bang." From the "Big Bang," a dot flew off by itself and began to explore. But all around it was empty space. The dot became lonely, so it split in two, which was fun at first. But then the two dots grew bored of each other, so they began to multiply until they formed something entirely new: a line. The line replicated until it became a surface, and the surface repeated until it became a 3-dimensional shape: the volume. A stray line then pulled off the volume and began to explore shape, color and pattern to create the magic of writing and art.This whimsical adventure-filled with imaginative text, mind-expanding illustrations and with an impressive double gatefold "to infinity"-takes readers of all ages on a journey through concepts that are the foundation of both art and life.Author Luis Camnitzer is a celebrated artist known for art that deconstructs accepted frameworks and exposes systems of power. In The Volume, he turns his powers of observation to familiar visual ideas and helps us to see them anew.

Paperback. Condición: New. Curator and historian, gallerist and writer: Klaus Kertess has long been a decisive and forward-thinking presence in the art world. He founded the Bykert Gallery in 1966, where he represented artists including Chuck Close, Ralph Humphrey, Brice Marden and Dorothea Rockburne; three decades later, he curated the 1995 Whitney Biennial, the follow-up to the famously political 1993 iteration. "What is being proposed here," he wrote in a catalogue essay for the 1995 exhibition, "is not a return to formalism but an art in which meaning is embedded in formal value. An acknowledgment of sensuousness is indispensable--whether as play or sheer joy or the kind of subversity that has us reaching for a rose and grabbing a thorn." The art world has changed considerably from the relatively convivial world of the 60s to today's globalized milieu, but Kertess has been a constant throughout the years, curating shows of provocative new work and writing critical essays on artists whose work challenges and engages him, while also maintaining a vital literary sideline (his short stories are collected in 2000's South Brooklyn Casket Company). This volume collects Kertess' critical works from the past 30 years, including meditations on Agnes Martin, Joan Mitchell, John Chamberlain, Vija Celmins, Chris Ofili and Matthew Richie. With each essay accompanied by full-color reproductions of works discussed, Seen, Written provides a priceless opportunity to see art through the eyes of a lifelong viewer.…

Paperback. Condición: New. Ellen Harvey's inspiring guerilla art project feels fresher and more relevant than everBetween 1999 and 2001, small old-fashioned landscapes painstakingly executed in oil started to appear on graffiti sites across New York City. The paintings were the work of the well-known Brooklyn-based artist Ellen Harvey (born 1967).Documented in this reprint of the sold-out first edition are both the works themselves and Harvey's diaristic accounts of painting illegally throughout the city. The narrative of her "beautification project" is both provocative and hilarious. It touches on such issues as who is allowed to make art in our society, and what distinguishes art from graffiti, while never losing touch with the frequently comical reality of creating a contemporary art project on the streets of New York.…
