Indigo and Resist Dyeing

An expansive consideration of the creative output of a unique twentieth-century master that brings a fresh perspective to his enigmatic and enduring work &nbsp; M. C. Escher (1898–1972) was born in the Netherlands and is known internationally for his self-described “mental images” that connect to mathematics and various branches of science. Considered a one-man art movement, he remained outside of the art establishment and is treasured today for his mind-bending works. His imagery explores the relationships between art and science, order and disorder, and logic and irrationality, and presents complex orchestrations of multidimensional alternate realities. &nbsp; Drawing from the Michael S. Sachs collection—the most extensive Escher holdings in the world—this overview of the artist’s work features more than five hundred objects, including prints, drawings, watercolors, printed fabrics, constructed objects, wood and linoleum blocks, lithographic stones, sketchbooks, and the artist’s working tools. Offering new insights into Escher’s iconic and idiosyncratic work, scholarly essays discuss the artist’s background and creative practice, examine the mathematical underpinnings of his use of geometric models, and ponder the ways his meticulously crafted images are filled with the element of wonder. &nbsp; Distributed for the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston

Making Matters

From the 1950s to the 1980s, the open-air playground was a social laboratory. Innovative, wacky, educational, and exciting playground designs emerged in European and American cities, as well as elsewhere around the world: artists, landscape designers, architects, and activists sought to provide children with the best possible place to play, while also reimagining cities and communities.First published in 2018, The Playground Project instantly became a classic. This much-expanded new edition brings back the wealth of ideas of that period to inspire us today. It offers many previously unpublished images, numerous new portraits, especially of female protagonists of the time, as well as findings from the latest research on playground design. An incisive introductory essay places the playground at the intersections of education, architecture, urban politics, design history, and leisure policy. A detailed focus is placed on the forgotten history of playgrounds in the former German Democratic Republic. Moreover, young researchers explore the culture of memory surrounding the Shek Lei Playground in Hong Kong, and the role that playgrounds played in the process of state-building in Mexico.The book is a tribute to play in public spaces and a rich source for architects, designers, students, children, and political actors.

Through a series of newly-commissioned conversations by renowned artists, writers, and scholars, in produced in collaboration with the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe, In New Light offers new entry points into the iconic American modernist. An extremely well-known painter and cultural figure, O’Keeffe’s persona and biography have remained as much a part of her story as her innovations within and contributions to modernist painting. What are the questions that need to be asked (and critiques to be raised and considered) about her work and legacy today?
 Included is a fully illustrated summary of O’Keeffe’s work — from very early pieces to her latest paintings, with both significant masterworks as well as less-known pieces. Photographs of the artist, her residence in Abiquiú, and other objects and ephemera in the Museum’s collection appear throughout this chronological plate section.
 In addition to the O’Keeffe Museum, the artist’s work is held in countless major public collections, including the Amon Carter Museum of American Art (Dallas),&nbsp;Art Institute of Chicago, Brooklyn Museum, Cleveland Museum of Art, Milwaukee Art Museum,&nbsp;National Gallery of Art (Washington), and The White House (Washington, DC).

Georgia O'Keeffe: In New Light

Edition Medienwissenschaft

In einer global vernetzten, digital durchdrungenen Welt genügt es nicht mehr, in geschlossenen Systemen zu denken. Der Blick richtet sich vielmehr auf das, was Systeme verbindet und definiert: das Spiel der Schnittstellen. Als Orte der Übertragung, Filterung, Übersetzung und Sinnbildung werden sie zu den zentralen Erkenntnisobjekten überhaupt. Zwischen Mensch und Maschine, Kultur und Technik, Sprache und Material ermöglichen sie nicht nur Austausch, sondern auch ständige Veränderung. Christian Stein führt interdisziplinäre Perspektiven aus&nbsp;Medien-, Kultur-, Technik- und Naturwissenschaften zusammen.&nbsp;So öffnet er ein neues Denken - eines, das Schnittstellen offenlegt und zu ihrer aktiven Mit- und Umgestaltung anregt.
