Small stamp inside stating "removed from an art museums library" otherwise as new. Quarto. Stitchbound softcover. Floppy orange cloth wraps with black titles. 109 pages : illustrations chiefly colour ; 30 cm. "The book presents an early career survey of the work of Cape Town-based artist Igshaan Adams born 1982 showcasing his multimedia practice since 2009. In addition to exploring recurring motifs in his work-Arabic calligraphy the rose the self-portrait Sufi symbols and pathways literal and metaphorical-the publication highlights some of Adams's material concerns including his sculptural applications of weaving his embrace of recycled materials related to black South African domesticity and interiority and his use of the gallery wall and floor in installations. Hendrik Folkerts surveys the artist's recent work addressing its engagement with presence absence and the trace. Adams himself offers a visual essay enabling readers to see details they would be imperceptible in a gallery setting. In shorter essays and poetic texts the other authors focus on the South African historical and political context specific artworks and particular creative strategies materialities and narratives"--.

2023réf. 213792Madrid: Centro de Estudios Europa Hispanica 2023. Hardcover. As new. Small quarto. Hardcover. Matte illustrated boards. No jacket as issued. 237 pages : illustrations some color ; 27 cm. This catalogue which accompanies the eponymous exhibition held at the Nagasaki Prefectural Art Museum and the National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo presents the role played by prints in creating and disseminating the image of Spain from the early 1600s to the mid-1900s. Taking as a basis nearly 250 works housed exclusively in Japanese collections a group of international specialists headed by Kawase Yusuke curator of the exhibition together with Inaba Yuta and editor of the catalogue addresses various issues in two main areas. They begin by studying how prints made it possible to establish a dialogue with tradition through Don Quixote and Velázquez and how works on Spanish themes executed chiefly by French and British artists spread the image far removed from reality of an exotic and Orientalising country populated by bandits gypsies majos and manolas in the nineteenth century. Following an in-depth examination of Goya and the influence of his series they analyse Catalan Noucentisme and the output of key figures like Fortuny going on to survey the history of Spanish printmaking during the first half of the 1900s and its reception in Japan with artists as important as Picasso Casas Miró Dalí and Tàpies.--éditeur.
