Soft cover. Etat : Fine. "Gianni Motti has celebrated his own funeral, masqueraded as a professional soccer player, spoken in the name of the people of Indonesia at the UN Human Rights Convention, claimed responsibility for earthquakes and repeatedly referred to himself as a kind of terrorist infiltrating various systems to implode them from within. The events he subverts with such surgical precision can be political, cultural or social. Their audiences and their expectations are not to be pandered to, as Motti styles himself not so much as a participant in the culture of spectacle--a court jester--but as an activist who unveils its workings. Which is why his events are most often experienced in photographs made by onlookers or the press. This book brings together for the first time a large selection of images and documentation, an overview of Motti's actions and the art therein." Text: Hunder Heike. cm 21x29; pp. 264; 248 BW ills.; paperback, fine condition.

Livre Edition originale
Hardcover. Etat : As New. 1st Edition. "This artist's book is based on Cyprien Gaillard's "Geographical Analogies," a collection of 900 Polaroids, carefully and rigorously arranged in a total of 100 showcases, telling many stories about landscapes, monuments, modernist buildings, and architectonic utopias, and just as many stories about decay, destruction, and devastation. As Rein Wolfs puts it in the introduction of this publication "Gaillard's epic work, outmodedly analog ? reflects a computation of time that seems to have disappeared ? In the disintegrating medium of Polaroid photography the aspect of disappearance inherent to time is documented and allegedly temporarily halted?until in foreseeable time these originals too will have disappeared beyond recall ? Decay, disappearance, remembrance and decline are omnipresent motifs in this work ? Numerous devastated concrete landscapes, unfinished holiday developments, monuments, ruins, modernist high-rise estates, cemeteries, landscapes and?as a counterpoint?golf courses stand for an equal number of failed ambitions, or decaying cultural testimonies to their time ? But the 'Geographical Analogies' can be conserved for perpetuity in the format of this book which, like an atlas arranging things at a different level, represents a further stage of scientific classification: a global atlas full of ruins of the Gaillard trademark. A world atlas against disappearance."" Text: Gaillard Cyprien, Derieux Florence, Wolfs Rein, Gaensheimer Susanne pp. 224; hardcover. A rare artist's book in as new condition.
