Summary:
Paulina Olowska's work demonstrates an interest on Communist Poland's fascination with Western consumerism and celebrates the spirit and stylish improvisations of the "Applied Fantastic"—a term coined by Polish writer Leopold Tyrmand in 1954, to describe the vernacular re-creations of Western styles. In her paintings, collages, and knitted works, Olowska incorporates text and graphics from found illustrations or images that have a decidedly "behind the Iron Curtain" look, while paying tribute to American Pattern and Decoration art of the 1970s and its use of non-traditional contemporary art mediums such as tiles and textiles. This publication is the first monograph to offer an overview of her work. It includes an interview with Adam Szymczyk and an essay by Jan Verwoert.

Summary:
This publication is a result of visits and discussions carried out by Hans Ulrich Obrist in artists’ studios in Prague around 2001 and 2008. Interviews with Milan Grygar, Jií Kovanda, Karel Malich, Zdenk Sýkora, and many others, map the historical events as well as unknown stories of the actors of the Czech “second avant-garde” or “neo-modernism” of the former socialist block. The artists and intellectuals of this generation were born in between 1920–1945. They lived through the 1960s cultural upheaval known as the Prague Spring, becoming part of international cultural movements for a limited time, and witnessed the “normalization” of the 1970s when censorship was re-introduced. This series of interviews contextualize a generation of Czech artists within the historical events that marked their lives and careers, and draw attention to their urgency to resist historical events while keeping their artistic practices sustained, radical, and vital.

Summary:
Vern Blosum does not exist. The story can be told in just a few lines: in 1961 an artist paints five canvases inspired by pages in a horticulture book; then came parking meters bearing temporal commentaries, water hydrants, and animals. Some of them were shown at Leo Castelli Gallery, sold to collectors and public institutions, included in seminal exhibitions or books on Pop art: a seemingly normal progression in an artist’s career, were it not for a rumor that emerged regarding his true identity. Alfred H. Barr, the director of MoMA, started to worry about it in 1964 and, after extensive inquiries, came to the conclusion that Vern Blosum did not exist. His paintings were taken down or sent back to storage, and the artist’s name fell into oblivion. Vern Blosum does not exist, but his work does. And that is precisely what this book aims to reveal.

Occupé et aménagé par ce dernier de 1975 à 1991, ce lieu de vie était aussi un lieu d'échanges et d'exposition d'œuvres précisément choisies. L'art minimal et conceptuel y tenaient une place essentielle pas simplement à travers des œuvres mais aussi comme forme de vie. Désormais partie intégrante de la collection du MAMCO, L'Appartement propose, entre autres, des pièces de Donald Judd, Carl Andre, Claude Rutault, Art & Language, Joseph Kosuth, Lawrence Weiner et André Cadere. Cet ouvrage en est la présentation détaillée à travers un essai de Patricia Falguières, un entretien avec Ghislain Mollet-Viéville et une étude de chaque œuvre par Thierry Davila. Il montre aussi combien collectionner signifie inventer un type singulier de fréquentation de l'art.

Her drawings and paintings from the beginning of the 1990s were included in the then current discussions on art and glamour, and on the emergence of women artists whose sensibility was not that of feminist theory. The source of numerous misunderstandings, the diversity of her work has veiled the internal coherence of a practice of which the most recent pieces attest to the continuous links between all these mediums. This book offers the complete panorama of Kilimnik’s production and allows a vision that goes beyond the distinctions between painting, drawing, or installation.
