The ultimate monograph on one of the most important artists of the twentieth century - a key figure in Arte Povera
This book is the final, most comprehensive book ever made by Greek-born Jannis Kounellis, one of the key artists in the Arte Povera movement. Following his breakthrough in the late 1960s in Rome, when he questioned the traditionally sterile environment of the gallery by exhibiting live animals within its walls, Kounellis went on to include diverse materials in his work, including fire, earth, gold, wood, and charcoal, quickly establishing himself as one of the most innovative sculptors of our time.
Writings by the artist and a collection of tributes from people who have known and worked with him over the years, such as Pierre Audi, David Hammons, Gloria Moure, Giulio Paolini, Vassili Vassilikos, and many others, are included.
Jannis Kounellis is the latest addition to the acclaimed Phaidon Contemporary Artists Series.

With a Probability of Being Seen. Dorothee and Konrad Fischer:
Archives of an Attitude focuses primarily on the personality of
Konrad Fischer - as a painter, as an exhibition maker and as a
gallery owner. The influence of this key figure in the development
of contemporary art from the 1960s to the 1990s is presented in the
exhibition in three ways: through his own works, through archived
documents and through the works of his artists, which he collected
together with his wife Dorothee. Numerous documents and
photographs, shown in public for the first time, convey a richly
faceted picture of Konrad Fischer's activities and a captivating
panorama of this great period of contemporary art in the Rhineland.
This collection, too, testifies to the consistent attitude that
characterised Konrad Fischer, an attitude that cannot be readily
explained or quantified in material terms.

A beautiful book on the famed Chinati Foundation in Marfa, Texas
The Chinati Foundation, a world-famous destination for large-scale
contemporary art, was founded by Donald Judd (1928-1994) to
preserve and present a select number of permanent installations
that were inextricably linked to the surrounding landscape in
Marfa, Texas. This handsome publication, first published in 2010
and now available with a new chapter devoted to the permanent
installation by Robert Irwin that was inaugurated in 2016 and a new
foreword by Jenny Moore, director of the Chinati Foundation,
describes how Judd developed his ideas of the role of art and
museums from the early 1960s onward, culminating in the creation of
Chinati. The individual installations featured here include work by
John Chamberlain, Dan Flavin, David Rabinowitch, Roni Horn, Ilya
Kabakov, Richard Long, Ingolfur Arnarsson, Carl Andre, Claes
Oldenburg and Coosje Van Bruggen, and John Wesley, as well as by
Judd himself. The book also features a complete catalogue of the
collection and writings by Judd relating to Chinati and Marfa.
Published in association with the Chinati Foundation/La Fundacion
