An updated appraisal of the sculptural oeuvre of Elmgreen & Dragset, famed for their surreal Prada boutique in Texas
Artist duo Elmgreen & Dragset consistently devise new possibilities in the way art is presented and perceived through their subversive and multivalent practice, as seen in works such as their well-known installation Prada Marfa (2005), a permanently closed Prada boutique in the middle of the desert in Texas, and Powerless Structures, Fig. 101 (2012), their sculpture of a boy on a rocking horse for London's Fourth Plinth Commission at Trafalgar Square. Sculptures--the first-ever dedicated study of this facet of their work--covers the artists' sculptural works from the mid-1990s through the present day. Organized according to the aesthetics and conceptual working methods they have employed throughout their career, it includes extensive photographic documentation of 112 of their works and five essays approaching their practice from various art-historical and thematic perspectives. This extended reissue of the 2019 edition includes 16 additional pages and an updated list of artworks.

Les sculptures d'Alessandro Twombly (né en 1959) sont réalisées à partir d'une seule pièce (contrairement à celles de son père Cy Twombly, qui les a assemblées comme s'il s'agissait de collages de pièces trouvées). Cette publication présente les sculptures en bronze ou résine de Alessandro Twombly, de 1986 à 2016, qui invoquent toutes les forces élémentaires de la nature et les formes organiques.

Ce catalogue accompagne une exposition à la fondation Beyeler au début 2021.En matière de sculpture moderne, peu d'artistes peuvent revendiquer le même niveau d'influence qu'Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) et Hans Arp (1886-1966). L'approche naturaliste plutôt que décorative de la sculpture de Rodin a révolutionné le domaine à la fin du 19e siècle, tandis qu'Arp a suscité une autre vague d'expérimentation au début des années 1900 avec sa sculpture abstraite. Dans ce volume, les oeuvres des deux pionniers sont mises en conversation pour démontrer leurs affinités artistiques ainsi que leurs contrastes créatifs.

La Fondation Beyeler propose une exposition qui compare Alexander Calder à Fischli & Weiss (29/05/2016 - 04/09/2016). A des époques différentes et avec des pratiques diverses, ils explorent la notion d'équilibre instable mais prometteur : Calder avec ses mobiles dès les années 30, puis le duo suisse formé par Peter Fischli et David Weiss avec ses jeux d'équilibre à la fin des années 70.

Cette monographie est la première à porter l'attention sur la production sculpturale du peintre abstrait Sean Scully. Souvent négligées, ses compositions au-delà de la toile rejoignent pourtant ses peintures dans la combinaison qui concerne ici non pas de couches de couleurs mais de différents matériaux tels que l'acier, la pierre, le bronze ou encore l'aluminium. Souvent peints et empilés les uns sur les autres, ces éléments créent ainsi des structures s'élevant vers le ciel et s'étalant sur le sol dont la place au sein de la démarche artistique de Scully n'est pas moindre que celle mondialement réservée à ses peintures.

Heidi Bucher's fascination with the interplay between art and fashion gave rise to wearable genderless body sculptures back in the early 1970s in California. The works celebrated her concept of sculpture as something between performance and object. Already at this time, she began to experiment with unusual materials such as rubber, which she applied to surfaces in liquid form and pulled off again with great physical force after it had solidified. With material transformations that were at once radical and sensual, she investigated human forms of existence and their embedding in power structures. In doing so, she was always dedicated to a critical subversion of normative gender roles. This monograph presents Bucher's oeuvre from its beginnings in Zurich in the 1940s, to the experimental phase in New York and Los Angeles in the 1960s and 1970s and the main body of work with architectural and human skins, to the works she created in the last years of her life on Lanzarote.

In collaboration with the sculptor Leelee Chan, a world- and time-spanning project has been selected for the 8th BMW Art Journey-an initiative of BMW and Art Basel. Chan explores old and new materials in order enter them into a dialogue with the present day. On her travels across Italy in 2020, she learned about traditional techniques used to extract and work marble, copper, iron, and bronze. In Switzerland and Germany, including at BMW's Munich headquarters, she met engineers and scientists in order to learn about nanotechnologies and postindustrial materials. This richly illustrated volume brings together essays, documentary photographs, and works inspired by the trip to examine the core questions of Chan's project: What does it mean to be a sculptor in the current time? What can we learn from the materials of yesterday ? And how can tomorrow's materials ensure a more sustainable future ?

On a seminal 1970s artist whose legacy has been largely lost to history.
American artist Charles Simonds (born 1945) is known for his diminutive "Dwellings," tiny architectural ruins embedded in the crumbling infrastructure of 1970s downtown New York. This volume reconsiders his legacy through a series of texts by curator Jules Pelta Feldman. -
Niki de Saint Phalle loved pseudo-orders, which she used to arbitrarily assemble terms and pictograms on a sheet of paper. Under the heading "I Love," for example, the sign of a snake could be found next to the emblem for justice, an orange spot for the corresponding color next to two stars as a symbol for astrology.
Niki de Saint Phalle A-Z takes the same liberty and puts the many facets of Niki de Saint Phalle's work into the order of the alphabet. This logical order is deceptive, though. From A as in AIDS to Z as in Zurich Angel, from B as in Bride to V as in Vanitas, a mosaic of concepts emerges that filters out the various levels of meaning in her manifold oeuvre and playfully engages them in mutual commentary. -

Fernando Casasempere : works / obras 1991-2016

The sea of flowers he presented in the courtyard of Somerset House during the 2012 Olympic Games in London made him and his art famous on the international stage: the Chilean sculptor Fernando Casasempere (*1958 in Santiago, Chile) placed ten thousand ceramic daffodils on the otherwise carefully mowed lawns there. Casasempere molded each one individually out of clay from his homeland, using the spring blossoms to draw attention to the wonders of nature with which humans destructively interfere-in this case, with lawn mowers. Casasempere, who has lived in angland since 1997, also employs clay to make far more experimental sculptures, such as seemingly liquid marble columns or vaulted and bulging shapes, through which he repeatedly questions humankind's treatment of the environment. This richly illustrated catalogue is an impressive presentation of the development of his body of work over the past twenty-five years.

Anna Bogouchevskaia sees her work in sculpture as a geopolitical engagement with concerns at the intersection of figuration and abstraction. This is the first catalogue raisonné of the German-Russian sculptor, including her early work, which has explored the art of the French- Russian artist Marc Chagall. After the fall of the Iron Curtain, the artist moved from Moscow to Berlin. As she transitioned into the middle phase of her artistic practice, she increasingly turned to natural phenomena, such as the unifying element of water in its various aggregate states and manifestations. In this publication, renowned authors place her work of the past 40 years in an art-historical context and provide insights into a unique oeuvre.

Experimental ceramic sculptures
This monograph presents Kaldahl's experimental work in clay sculpture. His compositions and materializations are the result of intuitive improvisations and a direct yet subtle response to material and spatial qualities. Kaldahl has worked with a myriad of spatial themes and ornaments that frequently reappear in his formal vocabulary, and which arise out of a methodical, gradual, and experimental process. This catalogue includes an introductory essay by Brooklyn-based curator, writer, and historian Glenn Adamson. Copenhagen-based writer and curator Jorunn Veiteberg draws connections to contemporary and historical developments with ceramic practices in fine art and craft. Further, Kaldahl's own voice is present in the publication in a number of highly engaging statements.
