Fall art-book preview
Last week the D.A.P. Fall/Winter '06 catalogue arrived in the mail, and, as usual, it offers a plethora of information; scanning its contents not only informs you about what might be worth reading in the coming months, but also rewards those who look closely with information about upcoming exhibitions. In particular, I'm looking forward to the exhibitions and their catalogues: MoMA's Brice Marden retrospective (catalogue); the Whitechapel's presentation of the Bellmer exhibition on view at the Pompidou last spring (catalogue); Katy Siegel's "High Times, Hard Times" (catalogue); the Moderna Museet's Paul McCarthy retrospective, "Head Shop/Shop Head" (catalogue); Karen Kilimnik (she'll have a fall 2007 show at the ICA Philadelphia). and, last but not least, Lecia Dole-Recio's first museum solo show, at MOCA (catalogue).
Other books of potential interest include Luis Pérez-Oramas's An Atlas of Drawings; Yearning for Beauty: The Wiener Werkstätte and the Stoclet House; Gordon Matta-Clark: Works and Collected Writings; Who Cares: 3 Dinners, 39 Artists, Curators, Writers, 1 Book; Institutional Critique and After; 0 to 9: The Complete Magazine, 1967-1969; Gerhard Richter: Paintings 2003-2005; Tony Smith: In Large Scale; Liam Gillick: Factories in the Snow; Anselm Reyle: Ars Nova (for the Bruce Hainley essay); Tom Burr: Extrospective.
