Ed Ruscha / Now Then
A sweeping cross-media survey of Ruscha’s six-decade career, from paintings and works on paper to photographs and artist's books, with essays by leading scholars
Spanning 65 years of Ed Ruscha’s remarkable career and mirroring his own cross-disciplinary approach, Ed Ruscha / Now Then features over 250 objects, produced from 1958 to the present, including paintings, drawings, prints, films, photographs, artist’s books and installations. Published to accompany the most comprehensive presentation of the artist’s work to date, and his first solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, this richly illustrated catalog highlights Ruscha’s most acclaimed works alongside lesser-known aspects of his practice.
Essays by an interdisciplinary group of contributors examine Ruscha’s work under a new light, beyond the categories of Pop and Conceptual art with which he has traditionally been associated, to present fresh perspectives on one of the most influential figures in postwar American art. Taken together, they underscore Ruscha’s singular contributions, including his material exploration of language, experiments with unconventional mediums?such as gunpowder, chocolate or chewing tobacco?and his groundbreaking self-published books. Supplemented by an illustrated chronology and exhibition history, this publication captures the ceaseless reinvention that has defined his prolific, six-decade career.
Ed Ruscha (born 1937) was raised in Oklahoma City and moved to Los Angeles in 1956, where he attended the Chouinard Art Institute (now CalArts). First showing with the Ferus Gallery in the early 1960s, Ruscha was included in Walter Hopps' landmark Pop art show New Painting of Common Objects at the Pasadena Art Museum in 1962. He has since shown his work extensively, most recently in several medium-specific museum surveys, including the 2004 exhibition Cotton Puffs, Q-Tips®, Smoke and Mirrors: The Drawings of Ed Ruscha at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, which traveled to the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, and the 2009 exhibition Ed Ruscha: Fifty Years of Painting at the Hayward Gallery, London, which traveled to the Haus der Kunst, Munich, and Moderna Museet, Stockholm. In 2005, he represented the United States at the 51st Venice Biennale. Ruscha lives and works in Los Angeles.

Ha a helyén van a szíved
Carolyn Jourdannek mindene megvolt: Mercedes, fényűző estélyek, divatos ruhák. Washington D. C. legelőkelőbb köreiben mozgott, híres politikusokkal érintkezett. És a Capitoliumban dolgozott. Meg akarta váltani a világot.
Aztán az édesanyja szívrohamot kapott. Carolyn hazautazott Tennesseebe, hogy segítsen háziorvos édesapjának a praxis fenntartásában. Pár napra átveszi a recepciósi feladatokat, amíg az édesanyja fel nem gyógyul - hitte ő. Ám a napokból hetek lettek.
Carolyn új munkája abból áll, hogy veszélyes anyagnak számító testnedveket takarítson fel: egy henteskés nagyságú csontszilánk láttán is megőrizze a hidegvérét: különbséget tudjon tenni húzódás, rándulás meg ficam között, hogy a telefonkönyv vastagságú orvosi kódjegyzékek segítségével kitölthesse a kibogozhatatlan betegbiztosítási űrlapokat; és közben gondját viselje a beszédes Miss Hiawathának, akit nap mint nap ingyen kezel a doktor úr. Jourdan végül eladta a Mercedest, és megelégedett egy húszéves postásdzsippel is. Kiskosztümjét műtősruhára cserélte. És az volt a legkülönösebb az egészben, hogy új életét megszerette. Fáradhatatlanul és zokszó nélkül dolgozó édesapját látván rájött, mi az, ami igazán naggyá tesz egy embert: a nap huszonnégy órájában szolgálatban lenni, eltűrni a helyi drogfüggő telefonos zaklatásait, figyelmesen végighallgatni Miss Hiawatha mondókáját. Mindennap bemenni a rendelőbe, és ellátni Strawberry Plains lakosait, akár fizetnek érte, akár nem. A lány ráébredt, hogy így tudja igazán megváltani a világot...
Hiroshi Sugimoto: Time Machine
A new, comprehensive survey of Sugimoto’s five-decade career, from grand dioramas and seascapes to eerie portraits of wax effigies and more
Through his expansive exploration of the possibilities of still images, Hiroshi Sugimoto has created some of the most alluringly enigmatic photographs of our time?pictures that are meticulously crafted and deeply thought-provoking, familiar yet tantalizingly ambiguous. Hiroshi Sugimoto: Time Machine is a comprehensive survey of work produced over the past five decades, featuring selections from all of Sugimoto’s major series, as well as lesser-known works that illuminate his innovative, conceptually driven approach to making pictures.
Texts by international writers, artists and scholars?including Geoffrey Batchen, Edmund de Waal, Mami Kataoka, Ralph Rugoff, Lara Strongman and Margaret Wertheim?highlight his work’s philosophical yet playful inquiry into the nature of representation and art, our understanding of time and memory, and the paradoxical character of photography as a medium so well suited to both documenting and invention.
Hiroshi Sugimoto (born 1948) has exhibited extensively in major museums and galleries throughout the world, and his work is held in numerous public collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo; National Gallery, London; National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo; Smithsonian, Washington, DC; and Tate, London, among others. Sugimoto divides his time between Tokyo and New York City.

La Mort a Venise
La Mort Venise et Tristan comptent parmi les meilleurs récits de Thomas Mann. Malgré leur briveté, ces deux chefs-d'oeuvre d'inspiration trs romantique contiennent l'essentiel de la pensée du grand écrivain allemand. On y retrouve le pessimisme foncier hérité de Schopenhauer, la clairvoyance, la perspicacité et l'extraordinaire raffinement psychologique que Thomas Mann admirait chez Nietzsche, ainsi que les quatre notions fondamentales qui, travers la littérature, ont pendant des sicles défini l'âme allemande : culture, musique, protestantisme et sens du devoir. La fascination mortelle que peut exercer la beauté physique, tel est le sujet de la Mort Venise : justement parce qu'il n'est plus jeune, et qu'il a une sensibilité d'artiste, le romancier Gustav Aschenbach sera plus qu'un autre sujet ces brusques déraillements qui conduisent la mort. Univers glacé de la montagne, gaieté factice du sanatorium, Tristan est en quelque sorte un prélude la Montagne magique. Dans ce monde qui déj échappe aux vivants s'affrontent l'artiste, voué aux rves morbides et la métaphysique, et le bourgeois, l'homme d'action la santé et aux affaires florissantes. Nouvelle brve, infiniment poignante, le Chemin du cimetiére clôt sur un point d'orgue la réédition de ces deux joyaux de la littérature allemande.
