Helena Tatay Reihenfolge der Bücher

Hans-Peter Feldmann (born 1941) is a virtuoso taxonomist of contemporary visual culture. Published for Feldmann’s major 2012 exhibition at the Serpentine Galllery in London (which travels to Vienna and Hamburg), Catalogue compiles well-known images alongside new and unseen works, including selections from the artist’s private photo albums and reproductions of early book works from the late 1960s on. Grids of seagulls and postcards share space with lighthearted photobooth snaps of people crossing their eyes and a variety of other visual gags. At once intimate and accessible, Catalogue includes a lengthy, playful interview with Hans Ulrich Obrist and Helena Tatay, in which Feldmann looks back over his career, discussing inspirational figures such as Marcel Broodthaers, Bruno Goller and Konrad Klapheck and his favorite books.

Anna Maria Maiolino weaves her humanistic upbringing with the Brazilian neo-concrete movement, which perceives art as a living entity rather than a mere object. Her diverse use of media—drawing, sculpture, performance, installation, film, and photography—reflects a creative exploration of materials, reconnecting with ancestral practices. Maiolino's work embodies relational subjectivity, navigating between dichotomies such as in/out, positive/negative, and void/full, all engaged in a continuous transformation process. The book begins with an interview by Helena Tatay, serving as a narrative thread that unites over a hundred images of her artistic journey from 1967 to the present, including a facsimile of one of her book-objects. Contributions from Griselda Pollock and Marcio Doctors contextualize Maiolino's work, while Ivone Margulies analyzes her films. Influenced by Brazilian neo-concrete art, Maiolino views art as dynamic and mutable. Her first monograph emphasizes the interplay of contrasts, revealing processes of transformation and movement throughout her creations. The synergy of her drawings, sculptures, performances, installations, films, and photographs unveils these metamorphoses in often surprising ways.
