Item Number: 120434 Title: To the Museum of Modern Dreams : Künstlerpositionen der 1960er- bis 1980er-Jahre Zu Ehren zweier außergewöhnlicher Stiftungen Author: Hoper, Corinna (et al) Price: Not Available ISBN: 9783775733687 Description: Stuttgart: Hatje Cantz, Freunde der Staatsgalerie Stuttgart, 2012. 27cm., pbk., 124pp., 80 color illus. German text. Exhibition catalogue. Summary : With the bequest from Günther and Renate Hauff in 2003 and the Konrad Kohlhammer Stiftung (founded in 1986) over 2500 etchings and other prints are in the possession of the Freunde der Staatsgalerie Stuttgart and have now become part of the museum’s collection of prints. These works on paper correspond in unusual ways with the paintings and sculptures in the collection at the Staatsgalerie. Groups of works are completed, contrasts are made possible, and various stages in artists’ oeuvres are visible. Named after the title of a work by British conceptual artist Robin Page, in which a picture frame breaks out of a crate, To the Museum of Modern Dreams symbolizes the museum’s opportunity to realize its dreams, thanks to the help of patrons, and to veer off the traditional path of separating different media. In ways that are more associative than categorical, this publication also combines various genres and artists from the 1906s to the1980s. We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O. Box 3904, Kingston, New York 12402 US Phone: 845-331-8519 Fax: 845-331-0852 Email: michael@artbooks.com |
