Grey Ecology (Hardcover): Paul Virilio Grey Ecology (Hardcover)
Paul Virilio; Translated by Drew Burk; Edited by Hubertus Von Amelunxen
R663 Discovery Miles 6 630 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Here as Virilio states, "all one can do is guess." But Virilio's position is not one of pure guessery. His extrapolationist position against his delirium state, has the architecture of a 23rd century scientist: three parts - fractal geometry, two parts - theory of general relativity, one part - Philip K. Dick. One must step back and stare down the medusa of progress with a mirror. This is Virilio's call for a grey ecology. PAUL VIRILIO is a renowned urbanist, political theorist and critic of the art of technology.Born in Paris in 1932, Virilio is best known for his 'war model' of the growth of the modern city and the evolution of human society. He is also the inventor of the term 'dromology' or the logic of speed. Identified with the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty, the futurism of Marinetti and technoscientific writings of Einstein, Virilio's intellectual outlook can usefully be compared to contemporary architects, philosophers and cultural critics such as Bernard Tschumi, Gilles Deleuze and Jean Baudrillard. Virilio is the author, among other books of Speed and Politics, The Information Bomb, Open Sky, and most recently, The Original Accident.

Some Heads (Hardcover): Max Neumann, Hubertus Von Amelunxen, Tess Lewis Some Heads (Hardcover)
Max Neumann, Hubertus Von Amelunxen, Tess Lewis
R752 Discovery Miles 7 520 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

A beautifully produced volume featuring the work of a major German artist. While a face may be considered a head, a head does not necessarily carry a face. Between 2015 and 2017, German artist Max Neuman, known for painting anonymous figures, drew a series of heads. Each head is a moment, each facing the viewer as if looking into a crowd, each distinguishable from the other. Who are they? May we call them portraits? Do they look back? Do they resemble spirits? Some Heads reproduces these haunting drawings along with an essay by cultural theorist and curator Hubertus von Amelunxen that questions the heads and faces while dwelling upon the effacement of individuality.

Der vierte Band des über 40 Bände umfassenden geplanten Werkverzeichnisses des Künstlers Michael Müller – ein einzigartiges über Jahrzehnte angelegtes Vorhaben –, das einen Überblick über das malerische Œuvre Müllers bietet, fungiert zugleich als Ausstellungskatalog. Er ist dem über 6 x 65 m messenden monumentalen Gemälde Der geschenkte Tag gewidmet, das für Michael Müllers Einzelausstellung im Frankfurter Städel Museum 2022 entstand. Das 24-teilige Gemälde sowie die Ausstellung arbeiten den griechischen Mythos um das Zwillingspaar Kastor und Polydeukes, den Dioskuren, auf, der bisher sowohl von der Kunstgeschichte als auch der Philologie und Philosophie wenig beachtet wurde. Neben der Entstehungsgeschichte der Werke, einer Zusammenstellung historischer Textquellen und einem ausführlichen Interview mit dem Künstler wird in Essays und einer lyrischen Komposition des amerikanischen Literaturwissenschaftlers und Übersetzers Stanley Lombardo die Geschichte der Dioskuren für das 21. Jahrhundert aktualisiert. Mit begleitenden Essays von Hubertus von Amelunxen, Stanley Lombardo, Lukas Töpfer, Cora von Pape und Rudolf Zwirner, Gedichten von Stanley Lombardo und Michael Krüger sowie einem Vorwort von Gero Heschl und einem Grußwort von Philipp Demandt.
