In 2009, the revered Swiss art publication and editions publisher,
"Parkett," celebrates its quarter-centenary with a comprehensive
retrospective collecting all 200 of the artists editions it has
produced since 1984. (They include Tomma Abts, Maurizio Cattelan,
John Currin, Peter Fischli/David Weiss, Nan Goldin, Dan Graham,
Wade Guyton, Zoe Leonard, Paul McCarthy, Marilyn Minter, Cady
Noland, Raymond Pettibon, Richard Prince, Charles Ray, Gerhard
Richter, Pipilotti Rist, Ed Ruscha, Dana Schutz, Hiroshi Sugimoto
and Christopher Wool, to name just a few.) Originating at the
celebrated SANAA-designed 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art
in Kanazawa, Japan, the exhibition builds on previous
retrospectives held at Kunsthaus Zurich (2005), the Irish Museum of
Modern Art (2002), The Museum of Modern Art, New York (2001), and
Whitechapel Art Gallery, London (2001). "Commissioned by "Parkett,"
the most important artists of our time have created editions that
represent the essence of their art or reveal an unexpected
dimension... the works cover every possible medium including
painting, photographs, drawings, prints, sculptures, videos, DVDs,
and sound pieces," wrote Whitechapel's Iwona Blazwick in
2001.
Weighing in at more than 450 pages, this super-collectible
catalogue raisonne, produced in conjunction with the 21st Century
Museum of Contemporary Art, is the most comprehensive catalogue
ever produced on "Parkett"'s fabled editions. As such, it is a
unique document of today's art.
