| Web Author Description | Janet Kraynak is a New York-based art historian, curator, and Visual Arts Program Coordinator at the Eugene Lang College. A regular contributor to magazines such as Artforum, Art Journal, Grey Room and Frieze, Kraynak's interest in performance strategies and the development of linguistically-based artworks brought her to extensively research the work of Bruce Nauman, and to edit two seminal publications focused on his practice, Please Pay Attention Please: Bruce Nauman's Words: Writings and Interviews (MIT Press, 2003) and Reiterating Nauman (University of Minnesota Press, 2013). Alexander Alberro is Virginia Bloedel Wright '51 Associate Professor of Art History at Barnard College as well as a recipient of fellowships from the National Endowment of the Humanities, the George A. and Eliza Howard Foundation, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. He is the author of Conceptual Art and the Politics of Publicity (2000), and has edited or co-edited a number of books on contemporary art, including Conceptual Art: A Critical Anthology (MIT Press, 1999), Recording Conceptual Art (University of California, 2001), and The Ruin of Exchange (JRP/Ringier, 2012). Juliane Rebentisch is a Professor of Philosophy at the University of Frankfurt. She is the author of numerous essays and books, including Ästhetik der Installation (2003) and Stage of Life: Rhetorics of Emotion (2007). Monica Bonvicini (Venice, 1965) is a Berlin-based, award-winning, multimedia artist whose work questions issues such as architecture, power and gender by setting a dynamic and often critical relationship with the artistic form. |
| webLongDescription | Architecture, power, space, gender, surveillance and authority are the issues that have animated Monica Bonvicini's work for the past two decades. Her installations, sculptures, drawings, and films often rise questions about how the built environment shapes, conditions, and controls viewers as subjects and, in the process, dictates our phenomenological, sexual, and psycho-social relationship to space. The book provides an overview of Bonvicini's artistic production reconsidering her past work, tracing its current trajectories, and creating a geography that charts the terrain of the artist's attempts to embody and negotiate the very same architecture of history it challenges. Italian-born, Berlin-based Bonvicini won the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale (2001), the Kunst Preis in Berlin (2005) and the Roland Preis in Bremen (2012). Her work has been featured in the most prominent biennials, including Venice (2001, 2005 and 2011), Istanbul (2004), Gwangju (2006), New Orleans (2008) and Berlin (2003). Institutions where she had solo exhibitions include the the Art Institute of Chicago (2009), the Kunstmuseum Basel (2009), the Kunsthalle Fridericianum in Kassel (2011), CAC Malaga (2011), and the Hamburger Deichtorhallen (2012). |
