Résumé:
Few pieces elicit such immediate joy as the artworks created by Rebecca Louise Law. She has spent much of her artistic life recreating the fields of flowers that delighted her as a child. Her massive, installations—described as “deconstructed gardens” and “floral magic”—include cascades of multicolored wildflowers and lines of monochromatic roses, all hand dried and hand tied. Her art has appeared everywhere from Times Square to Windsor Castle and companies such as Hermès, Tiffany, and Jo Malone, have commissioned her to decorate their stores. "Life in Death" is the most comprehensive collection to date of Law’s work. It documents the evolution of Law’s unique artistic practice, and explains why she chose to use preserved flowers as sculptural material. It offers a journey through her earliest experiments to her best known immersive installations, via a series of beautifully documented photographs. It also provides a unique insight into Law’s life and influences, including an introduction written by the artist herself.

Résumé:
'Corporate Imaginations' examines the group as it emerged on three continents from 1962 to 1978 in its complexities, contradictions, and historical specificity. The collective’s founder, George Maciunas, organized Fluxus like a multinational corporation, simulating corporate organization and commodity flows, yet it is equally significant that he imagined critical art practice in this way at that time. For all its avant-garde criticality, Fluxus also ambivalently shared aspects of the rising corporate culture of the day. In this book, Mari Dumett addresses the “business” of Fluxus and explores the larger discursive issues of organization, mediatization, routinization, automation, commoditization, and systematization that Fluxus artists both manipulated and exposed. A study of six central figures in the group—George Brecht, Alison Knowles, George Maciunas, Nam June Paik, Mieko Shiomi, and Robert Watts—reveals how they developed historically specific strategies of mimicking the capitalist system.
