CHAZ BOJORQUEZ
Written by Erlanson, Amanda
Legendary artist Chaz Bojrquez is a student of the world and an American treasure all at once. In this stunning monograph, Bojrquez's artistic progression is revealed one decade at a time, beginning in the 1970s. His early interest in Los Angeles's native 'Cholo' style graffiti writing was later tempered by his work in Asian Calligraphy and his studies at Chouinard Art Institute.
JENNY HOLZER: WAR PAINTINGS
Written by Kristen Asp
Jenny Holzer (born 1950) became known in the 1980s with her billboards, projections and LED installations that often used text to deliver social critique. Jenny Holzer: War Paintings is a significant departure from the works for which she is known. It draws from declassified and US government documents concerning the War on Terror and military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq.
ROBERT LONGO: GANG OF COSMOS
Written by Andrew Durbin
This catalogue focuses on Robert Longo's (born 1953) recent series of charcoal drawings of well-known Abstract Expressionist paintings.
BRICE MARDEN
Written by Matt Connors
Brice Marden (born 1938) first incorporated gesture in his paintings and drawings in the mid-1980s. Inspired by Chinese calligraphy, the wandering lines were a departure from the planes of color that had characterized his prior work. In recent years the monochrome has returned, but in a different form, subtly altered by the artist's ongoing engagement with gesture.
ROCKWELL
Written by Marling, Karal Ann
An extraordinarily prolific artist, Norman Rockwell (1894-1978) produced some 4,000 paintings in his lifetime, not including a prodigious quantity of commissioned editorial, commercial, and advertising work. His death in 1978 was regarded the loss of a national icon, an artist who, like no other, celebrated the American Dream.
CHRISTO AND JEANNE-CLAUDE
Written by Baal-Teshuva, Jacob
The work of the artist couple Christo (1935-2020) and Jeanne-Claude (1935-2009) resists categorization. It is a hybrid of art, urban planning, architecture, and engineering, but above all an aesthetic uniquely their own: surreal and ethereal environmental interventions that have graced monuments, public parks, and centers of power alike.
MICHELANGELO: DRAWINGS
Written by Pöpper, Thomas
Very few artists can claim such lasting and worldwide fame and importance as Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564). The nickname il divino ("the divine one") has been applied to him since the 1530s right through to today: his achievements as a sculptor, painter, and architect remain unparalleled and his creations are among the best-known artworks in the world.
HIERONYMUS BOSCH: COMPLETE WORKS
Written by Fischer, Stefan
A bird-monster devouring sinners, naked bodies in tantric contortions, a pair of ears brandishing a sharpened blade: with nightmarish details and fantastical painterly schemes, Netherlandish visionary Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450-1516) secured his place as an art historical magnet.
AI WEIWEI
Written by Hans Werner Holzwarth
As his personal circumstances move in constant flux, Ai Weiwei remains a cultural magnet. Renowned for his political activism and social media activity almost as much as for his social interventions, contemporary approach to the readymade, and knowledge of Chinese traditional crafts, Ai's fame extends throughout and beyond the art world.
