Anthroprogramming (8 pages newspaper format catalogue)

In his work, Terence Koh mobilizes seduction, lust and desire. These moments exemplify a strategy that integrates a queer, polymorphously perverse approach into art production. The meaning produced by his objects is tightly interwoven with both private narration and a wide range of subcultural fields of association. Koh frequently employs trivial materials, which are then transformed in the artistic process and transposed into an almost classical aesthetic. Terence Koh generiert in seinen Arbeiten Momente der Versuchung, der Lust und des Begehrens. Sie stehen exemplarisch für die Strategie, queere, polymorph perverse Zugänge in die künstlerische Produktion einfließen zu lassen. Die Signifikanz seiner Objekte ist angebunden an private Narration und ein weites Spektrum subkultureller Assoziationsfelder. Dabei verwendet Koh oft triviale Materialien, die durch seinen transformativen Umgang einer nahezu klassischen Ästhetik wieder eingeschrieben werden.

Die Werke des chinesischen Künstlers Ai Weiwei sind Ausdruck seiner kritischen Auseinandersetzung mit Geschichte, Kultur und Politik seiner Heimat und reflektieren auf mehr oder weniger subtile Weise seine eigene Biografie.

Das im Alltag oder im urbanen Raum Aussortierte in Kunst zu transformieren und damit als Kunst einer neuen Wertigkeit zuzuführen, ist eine der grundlegenden künstlerischen Strategien Theaster Gates’.

1966 was a promising year. Aldo Rossi published "The Architecture of the City" and Robert Venturi came out with "Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture".

Poor Man's Expression examines the relationship between film, video, technology, and art, with a particular focus on the reciprocal influences between conceptual art and experimental film. The publication is based on the eponymous exhibition in Berlin in 2006, but represents an independent compendium of texts and images beyond the show.

If you do dare to mention beauty, then some well-intentioned idiot says “beauty is subjective”, as if this in- disputable truth (given that beauty is, of course, subjective) would implicitly mean that nothing subjective and shared (or universal, or common, or whatever you’d like to call it) could possibly exist; as if subjects could never agree, or could never admit their shared nature and recognize themselves in what, in the end, is nothing more than this: the sudden appearance of something that we all like, something to which we would all like to surrender ourselves (i.e., the sudden appearance of beauty). So, yes: beauty is subjective. But this is no reason to stop worrying about beauty.

Catalogue suggests an artist’s exhibition catalogue, but is rather a chronological compilation of auction catalogues presenting the sales of the mid-century furniture designed by Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret for Chandigarh, India, featured in Amie Siegel’s multi-element film installation Provenance (2013).

Von den 1950er bis in die späten 1980er Jahre spielten Haftanstalten für die Tätowierkultur eine große Rolle. Der in der Außenwelt geschmähte Körperschmuck hatte für die Insassen von Gefängnissen eine Vielzahl von Bedeutungen, er war intensiv in den Alltag der Gefängnisse eingebunden und stand für die Häftlinge als Beweis, dass sie über ihren Körper, dessen Bewegungsfreiheit genommen worden war, noch selbst verfügen konnten.

The issue with the client is that the reasons why clients should pay for architecture (i.e., the reasons why rich or powerful individuals could become clients) seem to be disappearing.

San Rocco is interested in gathering together the widest possible variety of contributions. San Rocco believes that architecture is a collective knowledge, and that collective knowledge is the product of a multitude.

Minimal Art seemed harmless: just a few hard-edged, greyish pieces of metal laid on the ground, some bricks aligned a certain way, heaps of logs. Minimal Art looked unnecessarily stubborn and a bit stupid, but nobody would ever have thought it could do any harm.

Raymond Pettibon first came to prominence during the late-seventies with his raw, literary-inflected imagery for Black Flag, Sonic Youth, and SST Records.

The words on the cover of Aslan Gaisumov’s first monograph are names of places no longer inhabited.

Ein wesentliches Charakteristikum von Textilien ist ihr Beziehungsreichtum. Ihre Aktualität und Historizität beziehen sie aus Kunst und Kultur- ebenso wie Medien-, Sozial- und Technikgeschichte, sie repräsentieren Traditionen der angewandten und der bildenden Kunst, changieren zwischen Formalismus und Funktionalismus und vermitteln als Objekte und Verfahrensweise zwischen Selbst- und Weltverhältnissen, affekt- und wissensgesteuerten Prozessen der Aneignung. Aufgrund ihrer mehrfachen Funktion – als Gebrauchsgegenstand und abstrakte (Formen-)Sprache – zeigen sich in Textilien – verstanden als Handlungszusammenhang – spezifische Verflechtungen, die seit der Moderne in zunehmendem Maße die Relationen zwischen Subjekt und Objekt, materieller und immaterieller, künstlerischer und handwerklicher Arbeit sowie kulturellen Austauschverhältnissen transformiert haben.

Siblings and Twins, a catalogue of Haegue Yang’s installation works, documents the same-titled exhibition held at Portikus, Frankfurt am Main. (Germ./Engl.)

EP is the first critically underpinned series of publications that fluidly move between art, design, and architecture. The series creates a discursive platform between popular magazines (“single play”) and academic journals (“long play”) by introducing the notion of the “extended play” into publishing: with thematically edited pocket books as median.
