Bruce Nauman

A Contemporary

The publication “Bruce Nauman: A Contemporary” poses the question of Nauman’s contemporaneity and situates his oeuvre in the context of artistic positions and art theoretical discourses from the last decades. Six in-depth essays by renowned authors illuminate Nauman’s work, such as in regard to its inherent humour or the practice of endless repetition. The volume of texts examines the mirror image and rear-view figures, for example, along with questions of contemporary subject constitution, digital image production and cybernetics. Theories of labor and globalization are discussed in reference to Nauman’s creative output, as well as the connections between Nauman’s work and models of behaviorism, software and computer theory, or topology. The various essays consider Nauman’s oeuvre in relation to diverse artistic positions such as those of Ed Atkins, Erwin Wurm, Francis Alÿs, Fischli / Weiss, Dara Birnbaum, Yvonne Rainer or René Magritte. In so doing, the volume of texts seeks to counter the tendency to cast the artist as an outstanding solitary figure of postmodernism and opens up manifold references to works and theories concurrent with Nauman’s active career.

      Paul Chan

      Selected Writings 2000–2014

      The work of Paul Chan (born 1973) has charted a course in contemporary art as unpredictable and wide-ranging as the thinking that grounds his practice. "Paul Chan: Selected Writings 2000–2014" collects the critical essays and artist’s texts that first appeared in leading art journals such as "Artforum", "October", "Texte zur Kunst" and "Frieze", as well as previously unpublished speeches and textual works. From comedy to Duchamp’s artistic freedom, to the contradictions that bind aesthetics and politics, Chan’s writings revel in the paradoxes that make the experience of art both vexing and pleasurable. Paul Chan reflects on artists as diverse as Henry Darger, Chris Marker, Sigmar Polke and Paul Sharits, and grapples with writers and thinkers who have played decisive roles in his practice, including Theodor Adorno, Samuel Beckett and the Marquis de Sade. Along the way, Chan lays bare the ideas and personalities that inform his work and shows a masterly understanding of ways to test and refresh the role and potential of art in a host of broader social and political arenas beyond galleries and museums.
