Frank & Eileen

Voids by Mai-Thu Perret (2009, Trade Paperback)

Description: Profusely illustrated Catalogue for the retrospective of empty exhibitions, the theme originating with Yves Klein's groundbreaking 1958 show which focussed on 'The Void', wherein Klein presented only empty rooms painted white; this catalogue thus embodies an inventory of exhibitions taking the void as their theme; texts by John Armleder, Mathieu Copeland, Robert Irwin, Yves Klein, Laurent Le Bon, and many more; artists include Klein, Laurie Parsons, Robert Barry, Maria Eichhorn; profusely illustrated in b&w and color; being the French edition (fully translated into English) for the Centre Pompidou leg of the touring show; Voids. A Retrospective is a paradoxical exhibition: by re-actualizing nine "empty exhibitions," it is simultaneously an experimental project that refuses the classic rules of the visual arts and an historical object which confronts the projects of Art & Language, At once the support and an extension of the event, this publication outlines the concept of the void in art, aesthetics, philosophy, religion, science, popular culture, architecture, and music, and broaches the subject of nothing, of vacuity, of the invisible and the ineffable, of rejection and destruction. Opening with a catalogue section that documents the nine selected historical and contemporary exhibitions, the publication also contains an anthology of more than forty texts, many published here for the first time, as well as contributions by artists created especially for this volume. Very clean copy; 464pp (lxv). 4to. 96 color pages. This book is a must-have for anyone interested in art collections, catalogs, and exhibitions of conceptual pieces. Written by Mai-Thu Perret and published in 2009 by Jrp Ringier Kunstverlag A&G, it features 528 pages filled with beautiful illustrations and captivating In English. Trade Papetback. Like new. With its unique insights and perspectives, this book is a valuable addition to any collection or art lover's library.
