Bøger af Kendra Paitz

A group exhibition exploring the mysteries and militarization of outer spaceAccompanying the eponymous group exhibition at University Galleries of Illinois State University, this catalog features 29 works by artists that critically engage in poetic, scientific and geopolitical views of the cosmos. Artists include: Amy Balkin, Jen Bervin, William Cordova, Ala Ebtekar, Trevor Paglen and Cauleen Smith.

Featuring photographs and films made between 2006 and 2015, Nine Trips around the Sun offers a survey of what Carrie Schneider (born 1979) describes as "documents of something performed for the camera," and demonstrates the range of lens-based processes she has employed. Included is Schneider's entrancing recent series Reading Women, for which the artist photographed and filmed 100 individual female artists, curators, writers and musicians in their homes and studios as they each read a book of their choosing by a woman author. The project resulted in 100 intimate portraits and a four-hour film. Published in conjunction with Schneider's first comprehensive survey exhibition, this volume--the artist's first monograph--includes essays by Julie Rodrigues Widholm and Joanna Szupinska-Myers, and an interview with the artist conducted by exhibition curator Kendra Paitz.

This publication explores the relationships between works by 21 contemporary women artists and the women writers they acknowledge and reference, from Mary Wollstonecraft to Octavia Butler. Includes works by Anne Collier, Moyra Davey, Coco Fusco, Xaviera Simmons and Carrie Mae Weems, among many others.
