Hardback. Etat : New. Public interest in art created by people suffering from mental illnesses has been growing in recent years, while the topic is still relatively exotic in the academic world. In a unique research project at Zurich University of the Arts ZHdK, art works produced around 1900 by patients in mental asylums and hospitals in Switzerland have been recorded, documented, and examined. Their authors worked on many of them for long periods, always with dedication, and often revealing remarkable technical and artistic prowess. They saw their art as a contribution to public life, as their own invention and expression of their ideas, but also as an act to compensate for the dull life at, and criticism of, the institutions they were being treated. This field of art, and of art history, is subject to the dynamics of academic standards and, consequently, of inclusions and exclusions. This new book, featuring a manifold selection of previously unpublished art works, questions our contemporary understanding of art, making the reader revisit his or her own concept of what constitutes art and to engage with these artists and their work.Published to accompany exhibitions at Prinzhorn Collection, Heidelberg, Germany from October 2018 to January 2019. at the Kunstmuseum Thun, Switzerland from February to May 2019, and at LENTOS Kunstmuseum Linz, Austria from June to August 2019.Text in English and German.…

Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - There has been a rapid rise in interest in recent years in art created by people suffering from mental illness, with new museums dedicated to it, major surveys, and attention from the media and public. Yet there has been little research undertaken to systematically examine this body of art. Extraordinary! presents the results of an exceptional research project undertaken at the Zurich University of the Arts that documented and examined art produced in asylums and mental hospitals throughout Switzerland around 1900. Varied in style and media, the works often mark long periods of dedicated and passionate work and reveal remarkable technical and artistic prowess. They serve, the editors show, as both an expression of their creators' ideas and an act of compensation for, and their own ciriticism of, the dull and often hard life at the institutions they treaded. Featuring a diverse selection of previously unpublished works, Extraordinary! questions our contemporary understanding of art, encouraging the reader to engage with these artists and their work and thereby revisit the very idea of what constitutes art. The book is published to coincide with exhibitions at Prinzhorn Collection, Heidelberg (Germany, autumn 2018), Kunstmuseum Thun (Switzerland, spring 2019), and LENTOS Kunstmuseum Linz (Austria, summer 2019).; Das künstlerische Schaffen von Psychiatriepatienten geniesst wachsende öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit und ist dennoch relativ wenig erforscht. In einem einzigartigen Forschungsprojekt an der Zürcher Hochschule der Künste wurde in den vergangenen 15 Jahren die um 1900 von den Insassen der psychiatrischen Anstalten sämtlicher Schweizer Kantone geschaffene Kunst erfasst und dokumentiert. Dieses Buch präsentiert eine Auswahl dieser Werke, von denen die meisten noch nie öffentlich zu sehen waren. Die Patientinnen und Patienten schufen sie über längere Zeit mit grösster Hingabe und oftmals grosser technischer und künstlerischer Kompetenz. Sie verstanden ihre Kunst - oder ihre Werke - als Beitrag zum öffentlichen Leben, als Erfindung oder Ausdruck von Gedankengebäuden, aber auch als Kritik an den Anstalten und als Ausgleich zum eintönigen Alltag. Extraordinaire! lässt die Urheberinnen und Urheber zu Wort kommen und zwingt uns, unseren Kunstbegriff zu überdenken. Das Buch erscheint anlässlich von Ausstellungen in der Sammlung Prinzhorn (Heidelberg, Hebst 2018), im Kunstmuseum Thun (Früjahr 2019) und im LENTOS Kunstmuseum Linz (Sommer 2019).…

Jahrhundert zurückreichen und die bis anhin noch nie untersucht wurden. Glasdiapositive und -negative, lose Papierabzüge und Fotoalben gewähren faszinierende Einblicke in die Zeit der Modernisierung dieser Einrichtungen - und zugleich in die Geschichte der Fotografie. Das damals neue Medium wurde von Psychiaterinnen und Psychiatern eingesetzt, um Diagnosen anhand von Merkmalen zu erfassen, aber auch, um der Öffentlichkeit das Leben hinter Anstaltsmauern näherzubringen. Mit zunehmend handlicheren Kameras konnten auch die bescheidenen Freizeitaktivitäten, Festivitäten und kreativen Freiräume festgehalten werden. Das Buch Hinter Mauern und die gleichnamige Ausstellung in der Sammlung Prinzhorn (Heidelberg), im Thurgauer Kunstmuseum (Warth) und im Schweizerischen Psychiatrie-Museum (Bern) machen diese Zeitzeugnisse nun erstmals der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich. Aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln untersuchen die Autorinnen und Autoren kritisch die Verwendungszwecke des Mediums Fotografie in der Psychiatrie.…

Broschur. Etat : Wie neu. 127 S. : Ill. ; 23 cm. Ungelesen - Die Schneiderin Anna Z. verfasste 1916 in der Pflegeanstalt Rheinau eine packende Lebensbeschreibung. Diese gewährt Einblicke in das unstete Leben einer Frau, die versuchte, berufliche Passion, Unabhängigkeit und Heirat, Liebe, Sexualität und Mutterschaft zu vereinen. Der Bericht gibt zudem Aufschluss über das komplexe Konstrukt «Wahrheit» im Leben einer Anstaltspatientin, einer Insassin des «Irrenhauses». Anna Z. (18641938) war das elfte von sechzehn Geschwistern. Ihre Mutter starb, als sie klein war, und von da an sorgte die älteste Schwester Berta für die Geschwisterschar. In der Schule fiel Anna Z. durch ihre Wildheit auf und wurde deshalb für vier Jahre in ein Erziehungsheim gesteckt. Sie absolvierte eine Schneiderinnenlehre und heiratete jung einen wohlhabenden Bauern. In der neuen Umgebung fiel sie auf, weil sie oft allein mit Pferd und Wagen unterwegs war. Wegen eines Scheckbetrugs wurde Anna Z. verhaftet; danach fühlte sie sich verändert, reiste «planlos» umher und quartierte sich in Hotels ein unter falschem Namen. Ihre erneute Verhaftung führte 1904 zur Einweisung in die psychiatrische Klinik Burghölzli, von wo sie nach einem Jahr als «unheilbar» in die Pflegeanstalt Rheinau «spediert» wurde. Hier verfasste Anna Z. in den Jahren 1915/16 ihre packende Lebensbeschreibung. In der Anstalt verlebte sie, wenn sie zur Strafe isoliert oder zu den «unruhigen» Frauen verlegt wurde, schlimme Zeiten. Wenn sie jedoch ein eigenes Zimmer hatte und für die Anstaltsschneiderei und auf eigene Rechnung für die Wärterinnen nähen konnte, fühlte sie sich nicht unwohl. Dennoch blieb es stets ihr Ziel, wieder ein selbständiges Leben zu führen. Mehrmals verbrachte sie kurze oder längere Zeit bei ihrer Schwester in «Familienpflege», wo sie als Störschneiderin arbeitete. Dabei wurden ihr einmal ein Zirkusbesuch, ein andermal ihre Verlobung mit einem Mitarbeiter der Anstalt zum Verhängnis. - Inhalt: 1.Heft: Kindheit und Schneiderinnenlehre -- Ehejahre und ein Betrug -- In Untersuchungshaft -- Die Auswirkungen der Haft -- Im Burghölzli - Tod des Vaters -- In der Pflegeanstalt Rheinau -- 2 .

Hardcover. Etat : Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 156 Seiten, 91 farbige und 15 s/w-Abbildungen, Halbleinen. - Heinrich Bachofner (1863 1926) war Eisenbahnangestellter in Winterthur und als technikbegeisterter Erfinder war er stets bestens über die aktuellen Entwicklungen informiert. Er wurde jedoch 1911 gegen seinen Willen in eine psychiatrische Anstalt eingewiesen und lebte ab 1913 bis zu seinem Tod als Patient der damals abgelegenen Pflegeanstalt Rheinau. Seine Krankenakte vermerkt, dass Bachofner unentwegt zeichnete und sich die Blätter zu Hunderten neben seinem Tisch stapelten. Davon haben sich 70 aussergewöhnliche Zeichnungen zu von ihm erfundenen grossen Maschinen erhalten. Sie belegen seine grandiose Originalität als Erfinder und sein enormes Fachwissen, das umso bemerkenswerter ist, als ihm in der Pflegeanstalt keinerlei Fachliteratur zur Verfügung stand. Dieses neue Buch untersucht in fundierten Beiträgen von Ingenieuren, Technik- und Kunsthistorikern Bachofners Erfindungen auf ihre Aktualität, Originalität und Machbarkeit hin und ordnet sein Werk in das industrielle Geschehen seiner Zeit und seiner Heimatregion ein. Zudem vermittelt es auch sehr zeitgemäss den Reiz der Technik für die Kunst.…
