Hardcover. Etat : Fine. 1st. 127 pages, illustrations (chiefly colour); 24 cm. Catalogue of an exhibition held at the Menil Collection, Houston, February 12 to August 15, 2010. Tight, clean copy. *** "The subversive, often jarringly direct sculptures of Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan (b. 1960) are acclaimed for their seemingly absurd juxtapositions and uncanny photorealism. Reflecting deep suspicions of religious and political authorities, these constructions serve as sardonic critiques of existing power structures, forcing the viewer to challenge his or her understanding of symbols, both iconic and commonplace. This publication features new works by Cattelan, as well as several of his large-scale pieces dating from 2003 to 2007, all of which are considered in the context of the Menil's remarkable holdings, with a focus on contemporary art. To this end, we see how works by artists such as Lucio Fontana, Robert Morris, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twombly, and Andy Warhol "converse" with Cattelan's art. With commentary from Franklin Sirmans, this book presents the rare opportunity to appreciate Cattelan's works amid the backdrop of the 20th century." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Collectible.…

paperback. Etat : As New. 2009 Menil Collection in association with the Museum of Fine Arts / Yale University Press (New Haven, Connecticut), 9 1/2 x 11 inches tall paperbound in color pictorial covers, copiously illustrated with mostly color photographs, 240 pp. An unopened copy, still sealed in publisher's clear wrap. Note that this is a heavy and oversized book, so additional postage will be required for international or priority orders. ~SP44~ [4.0P] A book that explores the lesser-known aspects of the artist's work, focusing on his development of unique wooden constructions, called 'maderas.' It accompanies a groundbreaking exhibition showcasing these works and is the first North American exhibition of these specific pieces, highlighting Torres-Garcia's innovations in this medium. The book includes essays by scholars that discuss the creation of the maderas and their place in the abstract art world, particularly in Paris and Montevideo. Joaquin Torres-Garcia (1874-1949) is one of the most influential artists to have emerged from Latin America in the early 20th century.

Torres-Garcia was also much celebrated for his work as a modernist painter, teacher and author.…
