Summary:
"Shopping" signifies more than the pure purchasing of goods. Strolling, looking at, choosing, buying and consuming goods has long become an essential part of urban life in the 20th century. Shopping is an essential ritual of public life, creating and transforming identity. Ever since Walter Benjamin´s description of the flaneur in the Paris arcades, the complex interchanges between consumer culture and art have become an issue worthy of discussion, and the book Shopping is the first extensive publication to be dedicated to this topic. It documents and analyses the fascination of fine artists, architects, film makers with the more and more sophisticated means of seduction in shop windows, department stores and shopping arcades. Extensive pictorial material serves to illustrate the interaction between art and the consumption of goods using works by Eugène Atget, Berenice Abbott, Walker Evans, Andy Warhol, Claes Oldenburg, Roy Lichtenstein, Christo, Duane Hanson, Barbara Kruger, Jeff Koons, Andreas Gursky, and many more. The book is edited by Christoph Grunenberg and Max Hollein and includes contributions by internationally renowned authors.

Summary:
The mechanisms, rhetoric and strategies of today's art world are probably closer to popular conceptions of the film industry than to the romantic image of the solitary studio-bound artist. The artists in The Making of Art show and trace these structures, offering some transparency as to how this world really operates. Artists contributing to this elucidation are Pawel(...)

Summary:
This new Ed Kienholz overview casts the Los Angeles assemblage pioneer as a powerful moral force in postwar art. Kienholz (1927-1994) was a polarizing presence in American art from the start of his career, when his first large-scale installation "Roxy's" - a recreation of a brothel - was shown at the Ferus gallery in 1962 (it later caused a huge stir at Documenta 4 in 1968).War, racism, sexism and media exploitation were among his recurrent themes, and he tackled them with an ethical clarity that, at the time, was frequently mistaken for shock tactics. This substantial monograph - the first since his major touring retrospective of 1996 - includes more than 200 color plates of Kienholz's assemblages, reasserting his art as a morally driven enterprise, and pointing towards his ongoing influence among contemporary artists such as Jonathan Meese, Thomas Hirschhorn and John Bock.

This catalogue was published on the occasion of the exhibition All-Inclusive. A Tourist World Schrirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt 30 january- 04 may 2008 This entertaining and often hilarious exhibition catalog from Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt is a thought-provoking exploration of our global society through the tourist experience. The curators see tourism as something that perpetuates clichés about cultural and national identity; real landscapes blur into artificial geographies like ski resort-themed water parks, indoor beaches with synthetic sun lamps, or aircraft carriers equipped with roller coasters and volcanoes. More than 30 artists create photography, multimedia installations, sculpture and prose travelogues that veer between the authentic and the absurd, attempting to answer the question: how should tourists interact with the bogus world of tourism, and what should they learn?
