Villa Arson

A collective publication resulting from a research project led by Sophie Orlando and Katrin Ströbel that takes as its starting point the way in which current geopolitical, economic and social changes induce a renewal and adjustment of artistic strategies, by investing, in an intersectional perspective, contextual thinking and feminist, queer and postcolonial thinking in an artistic and conceptual way.

Focusing on several major collaborative performance-videos by a figure of the British Black Art movement, this illustrated monograph includes a series of essays which interpret Boyce's interdisciplinary practice in the light of art history, and analyse her interest in black feminism, cultural studies, film studies, art history and critical theory.

Catalogue / artist's book.

Documenting works by artists dealing with performative issues between the 1960s and today (from Paul McCarthy to Jessica Warboys, Spartacus Chetwynd or John Bock), this catalogue, gathering numerous essays, questions the nature and the relevance of “performative” objects in contemporary practices.

Visually expanding on the art world's tendency to see the world through the prism of modern and contemporary art, the book depicts some 200 images of found or researched situations taken “after” an artist's work – occupied realities that are, one might say, signed by the artists.

The most complete monograph available on Armajani's work until 1994.
