Book Description
Mary Heilmann is a typical example of a leading American artist who is not a household name outside the art world. The pioneering painter, famous mainly in artistic circles, has been injecting abstraction with elements from popular culture and craft traditions since the 1970s.Heilmann's straightforward, seemingly nonchalant approach to painting belies an astute and witty dialogue with all sorts of art historical preconceptions; an attitude that now serves as a shining example for artists all over the world – both young and old.The huge critical interest in catalogues of Heilmann's work and the corresponding long queues of people waiting to hear her public lectures speak volumes.Since the 1970s, Mary Heilmann has also used ceramics to make objects and pictures, and she also integrates ceramic surfaces into her paintings.This mix of techniques – glazed clay and oil painting, with their different surface structures, colour qualities and feelings of depth – enables her to achieve a physical spatialisation of the two-dimensional picture. When her round ceramic forms are presented directly on the wall, the latter transforms into the picture carrier.

Book Description
Celia Forner has collaborated with 15 contemporary artists to create objects which defy a conventional definition of jewellery, sitting somewhere between sculpture and wearable art. These artists? designs are crafted from a variety of materials, ranging from traditional gold and silver with precious and semi-precious gems to enamel, aluminium, bronze and iron. Beginning with an exquisitely crafted gold cuff by Louise Bourgeois, the project has evolved to include artists such as John Baldessari, Phyllida Barlow, Stefan Brüggemann and Subodh Gupta. The catalogue features extensive illustrations, including photos of actress Rossy de Palma modeling the various creations. Quotes from the artists themselves offer perspective into their creations and the inspiration behind them.00Exhibition: Hauser & Wirth, New York, USA (20.04.-17.06.2017).

Book Description
The Conditions of Being Art is the first book to examine the activities of groundbreaking contemporary art galleries Pat Hearn Gallery and American Fine Arts, Co. (1983-2004), and the transnational milieu of artists, dealers and critics that surrounded them. Drawing on the archives of dealers Pat Hearn and Colin de Land--both, independently, legendary players on the New York art scene of the 1980s and '90s, and one of the great love stories of the art world--this publication illustrates their distinctive artistic practices, significant exhibitions and events, and daily business. Hearn and de Land championed art that challenged the business of running an art gallery; artists like Renée Green and Susan Hiller, Andrea Fraser and Cady Noland, who employed conceptualism and installation, social and institutional critique. Contributing to the history of exhibitions, institutions and curating, The Conditions of Being Art addresses a significant gap in this literature around experimental commercial spaces in recent art history. This publication is the first book-length critical account of the alternative commercial gallery practices of the 1990s, a moment and a scene that is extremely influential to many of today's art dealers, curators and artists. Hearn and de Land's gallery practices explored new experimental and ethical possibilities within the selling of art, testing the relationship of contemporary art to its markets. In this volume, full-color images, in-depth scholarly investigations and detailed gallery histories vibrantly document how Hearn and de Land tested new notions of what an art gallery could be.
