Drawing on the visual possibilities of electromagnetic energy,
radio waves, and natural phenomena, French conceptual artist
Laurent Grasso explores their effect on perception via immersive
videos, sculptures, paintings, and drawings that employ images or
techniques borrowed from cinema or art history. This book explores
the artist's manipulations of what we perceive to be time's
consistency, showcasing complex artworks that merge a range of
interests, including scientific speculations and fictions; natural
catastrophes; and representations of power and authority. Vibrant
photographs display his unique pieces, while astute observations
from some of the world's foremost art critics offer insight into
Grasso's approach. This thought-provoking volume arrives before
Grasso's new traveling exhibition, first at Sean Kelly Gallery in
New York and then at the Musee d'Orsay in Paris for a special
project related to an exhibition about Darwin.
Published to accompany MASS MoCA's landmark installation of
LeWitt's innovative wall drawings, this book celebrates the artist
and his illustrious 50-year career. Published in association with
Mass MoCA Exhibition Schedule: Mass MoCA, North Adams,
Massachusetts (opens November 16, 2008)

In an age of national divisiveness, artists are creating moments of
political resistance while also trying to forge paths towards
reconciliation. This exciting and provocative collection shows how
fifteen US-based multi-disciplinary artists are addressing the
complexity of the 21st century. Jeffrey Gibson weaves together
European and Native American cultures; Performance artist Cassils
constructs images of resistance in the Trans community; Hayv
Kahraman examines diasporic culture and the effect of being a
refugee in America. Together these artists create a national
collective portrait of a country at odds. This book examines the
human condition from all sides and strives to show how acting
together against suffering can lead to a new version of realness.
