Modern's Turbine Hall, this book also contains inspiring and
illuminating new writing, and a conversation between the artist and
Tate curator Catherine Wood. This is the latest volume in a major
series that explores the conception and creation of each Hyundai
Commission as well as offering an overview of in the artist's work
and career leading up to the latest ground-breaking installation.
Since Tate Modern opened in 2000, the Turbine Hall has hosted some

Blind people marching to the beat, illiterate people composing
music, retirees, skaters, choirs, activists: they all are guests of
Marinella Senatore. In her collaborative works, the Italian artist
combines strategies of political protest movements with artistic
forms of expression. Different media such as performance,
sculpture, textile, photo, collage, drawing and video become a
language of their own, a means of negotiating questions of
emancipation. This catalogue accompanies the artist's largest
exhibition to date at the Museum VILLA STUCK and the Generali
Foundation Collection at the Museum der Moderne Salzburg:
international authors discuss questions about the tension between
the individual and the collective, longings and belonging,
socio-political exclusion and alternative forms of society, as well
as the transformative potential of art.
Reality and fiction, matter and spirit, subject and object - the
artist Rebecca Horn constantly blurs these boundaries. Even the
different media she uses are not clearly separated but their
interweaving is part of her artistic principle. This catalog,
published to accompany the artist's comprehensive exhibition at the
Bank Austria Kunstforum Wien, is dedicated to this aspect of her
work. Essays by renowned authors provide new perspectives on Horn's
oeuvre, which spans five decades: from her early body instruments
and performances, to her feature films and kinetic sculptures, to
her site-specific installations, drawings, and poems. The countless
connections to art, literature, and film traditions are
illuminated, as well as Horn's proximity to subjects from mythology
and myths.

The Swiss artist Heidi Bucher was a major feminist figure on the
international neoavantgarde art scene, whose work is characterized
by a unique performative, yet material concept of sculpture. As
early as the 1970s Bucher was experimenting with unusual materials
such as latex, breathing life into them. She would pour liquid
rubber onto surfaces and then pull it off again with great physical
force, literally coming to grips with the world of things she
experienced and pressing forward into psychological border zones.
By transforming materials in ways that were as radical as they were
sensual, she explored forms of human existence and how they are
embedded in societal and private power structures. This monograph
presents Bucher's oeuvre from her early days as a student in Zurich
in the 1940s, to her experimental phase in New York and Los Angeles
of the 1960s and 1970s, to her major works of "skinning"
architecture and people, all the way to the pieces she created
during her final years on Lanzarote.
