Softcover. Etat : Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 15 x 21 cm, 224 pages, 25 b/w illustrations - This title of the Parachute anthology focuses on painting, sculpture, installation, and architecture: the so-called traditional and academic media. They are approached from several perspectives: from new theories of aesthetic production, especially painting, to the expansion of the art world to other artistic territories during the 1980s and 1990s (Russia and South America for instance), from the lessons of postmodernism to the definition and exhibition challenges caused by the proliferation of installation art. The essays discuss works by artists such as Lothar Baumgarten, Mona Hatoum, Guillermo Kuitca, Louise Lawler, Reinhard Mucha, Jackson Pollock, Robert Ryman, Michael Snow, Sots Art artists, and include two particularly seminal artist's essays: Dan Graham on Gordon Matta-Clark, and Jeff Wall on Édouard Manet.

Softcover. Etat : Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 15 x 21 cm, 190 pages,14 b/w illustrations - This volume brings together seminal texts written over the first 25 years of the magazine. Focused on emerging art practices since its inception, Parachute sought to develop new critical language that could deal with performance. If the early texts refer to the concept of performativity in kinship with the philosophy of language of J.L. Austin and a trans-medium approach, others address questions of genre, feminist and cultural studies, globalization, and institutional critique. The essays discuss works by artists such as Yvonne Rainer, Krzysztof Wodiczko, Kendell Geers, General Idea, and Matthew Barney.
