Presenting unique and in-depth collaborations and editions with leading contemporary artists, Parkett has been the foremost international journal on art for nearly two decades. Issue #64 features collaborations with temporary Olafur Eliasson (Denmark), Tom Friedman (United States), and Rodney Graham (Canada), three artists whose investigations of the seemingly mundane draw viewers into their imaginative musings on everyday life. Eliasson makes ambitious indoor and outdoor projects that incorporate ephemeral and elemental materials, and also documents these elements and their effects in his photographs. Friedman uses common everyday materials in his intensely-crafted sculptures and objects, imaginatively transforming fugitive materials into sly commentaries and investigations on the household object. Graham's videos, photographs, and audio works incorporate repetition and a Chaplin-esque deadpan humor as a means of commenting on and philosophizing about life and its many foibles. Contributing writers include Ina Blom and Jessica Morgan on Eliasson; Dan Cameron, John Waters, and Midori Matsui on Friedman; and Lynne Cooke and Matthew Hale on Graham. Also in this issue, novelist A.M. Homes interviews artist and photographer Chris Verene.

The art by the Canadian Rodney Graham may come across as light-footed, yet in reality it harbors an extraordinary complexity in terms of content and its use of media. His photographs, objects, paintings, films, texts, and compositions contain references to philosophy and literature, to the history of art and culture, that range from Erasmus of Rotterdam and Edgar Allan Poe to Sigmund Freud, Richard Wagner, and Kurt Cobain. While in his early oeuvre he still approaches his sources of material with a great deal of conceptual rigor, in their playful ambivalence between scientific factuality and imaginative fiction his later works are marked primarily by an enormous and intelligent sense of humor.The Goetz Collection includes works from all of his creative phases and genres. This publication provides substantial insight into this all-rounder's extensive artistic work of the last forty years and extends an invitation to set out on a journey of discovery.Exhibition: Sammlung Goetz, Munich 28.11.2015-23.4.2016

The complex effects of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (Type 3, Hypermobility), or EDSIII, on a patient's physical and mental wellbeing are extremely challenging for everyone involved, requiring a multidisciplinary care team and enormous dedication from the patient. This book presents an overview of what it means to be a chronic complex patient, examining the wide range of physiological and psychological implications associated with EDSIII and other conditions such as endometriosis and fibromyalgia. It explores the exercise and rehabilitation work involved in managing the condition effectively, considering a diverse range of medical treatments and complementary approaches including physiotherapy, Bowen Technique and Feldenkrais Method(R). There are contributions and insights throughout from experts in the fields of physiotherapy, rheumatology and health psychology, all of whom have extensive experience of working with complex chronic patients. The author links her own symptoms and experiences to those of other EDSIII patients and discusses how she has been able to reach a point where she can successfully manage the condition. This book will be essential reading for professionals working with EDSIII and other complex conditions including medical professionals, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, psychologists, counsellors and complementary therapists, and will be of interest to patients with EDSIII wanting to learn more about effective management of the condition.

Hypermobility of Joints 4th Edition follows the same format as its successful predecessors. The aim of which was to provide an overview of hyperlaxity of joints and this edition follows that aim by describing the most recent research and new developments in biochemistry, as well as providing practical advice on clinical features and management.

Hypermobility of Joints 4th Edition provides illustrative case histories, a review of hypermobility in the performing arts and sports and an outline of heritable hypermobility syndromes. This book is a valuable reference tool for a wide number of specialties, although it will particularly be of interest to rheumatologists, orthopedic surgeons and medical geneticists.

This groundbreaking new text explains and documents the scientific basis of chronic pain in Joint Hypermobility Syndrome (JHS) and other heritable disorders of connective tissue from the physiological, epidemiological, genetic and clinical viewpoints. It asks the reader to consider the possibility of JHS, identify it clinically, understand its co-morbidities, including interdependencies with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, while managing the condition appropriately. Hypermobility, Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain takes a multi-specialty and multidisciplinary approach to understanding JHS and its management, drawing together expertise from a broad group of internationally-recognized authors. The book is split into two sections. Section 1 deals with the clinical manifestations of JHS and Fibromyalgia, their epidemiology and pathophysiology. Section 2 covers clinical management. Here the reader will find chapters covering pharmacotherapeutics, psychotherapy and physical therapies that address the needs of patients from childhood to adulthood. It is hoped that Hypermobility, Fibromyalgia and Chronic Pain will advance knowledge of therapies and provoke further research while stimulating interest and encouraging debate. Comprehensively relates practical therapy to the nature of the underlying pathology Covers in one single text both the scientific and practical management aspect of Joint Hypermobility Syndrome and its allied pathologies Contributions from over 30 leading international experts Multidisciplinary approach will support all health professionals working in this field

Following a brief description of the historical and genetic background of the condition HMS is described in relation to other connective tissue disorders, such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, the Marfan Syndrome etc. The hypermobility syndrome is distinct from hypermobility (as in one joint only), which most physiotherapists are familiar with, and this difference will be explored. Hypermobility, is something people are born with, but it does not necessarily produce symptoms. It is present in between 5-15% of the population. Many of these will suffer symptoms at some stage in their life. It may occur in childhood, adolescence, adulthood, pregnancy or old age. Each of these stages is covered in the book, with detailed information on the presentation of the condition and its management. There are contributions from a variety of medical practitioners experienced in this field:. Consultant Rheumatologist, Professor R Grahame, Consultant Paediatrician, Dr K Murray, GP, Dr E Mansi, several physiotherapists, who specialise in different areas; Rosemary Keer (adults), Alison Middleditch (adolescents), Vicky Harding (Chronic pain), Jane Simmonds (Rehabilitation) & Sue Maillard (paediatric). There will also be a contribution from Sarah Gurley-Green, past Chairperson to the Hypermobility Syndrome association. Demonstrates how to identify the condition in the clinic. Discusses treatment and management strategies. Provides examples in the form of case studies. Includes details of a comprehensive assessment procedure, which differs depending on the stage of the disorder and the age of the patient. Features contributions by experts in a range of medical fields.

Niemand hat das Prinzip der Wiederholungsschleife radikaler in unlesbare Literatur verwandelt als der kanadische Kunstler, Filmemacher und Autor Rodney Graham. 1983 prapariert er Georg Buchners LENZ (1839) mit einem ausgedehnten Loop. Er implantiert der englischen U bersetzung der Erzahlung durch Carl Richard Mueller, der hier als Coautor mitaufgefuhrt wird, nach den ersten 1434 Wortern 83 Mal in Folge einen absolut identischen LENZ-Passus. Als Grahams LENZ wird Buchners LENZ zu Poesie, zu ready-made-Poesie. Und -Poeer: Poees. Musik. Eine U bersetzung a rebours, ist LENZ (Buchner Mueller Graham Kraus) die Aneignung einer Aneignung und damit die angepinselte linke, leicht fettige Kotelette einer langst beschnauzerten Mona Lisa. Ein duchampiertes Off-Double-double mit prallelastischer Beule. Buchner souffliert.
