Synopsis:
This innovatively designed book offers a comparative overview of the work of Bruce Nauman, Barbara Kruger, and Alfredo Jaar. The three artists have all created large-scale installations that explore a variety of combinations of image and text to reveal social power structures. Each of them developed a radically different approach to address social injustice, violence, and the profound ambiguities determining both individuals and society. The book focuses on five installations that are exhaustively analyzed, complemented by an overview of each artist's work. Bruce Nauman's works in a variety of media, from neon to video, are playful and perplexing language games where the viewer's disorientation becomes the starting point for a critique of the power relations underlying private and public violence. Barbara Kruger, who started out as a graphic designer, uses the ambiguously seductive language of mass media to challenge common-place notions of body, gender, pleasure, and power. New York-based Chilean artist Alfredo Jaar uses photography, text, and architecture to visualize and define the political, economic, and ethnic relations and interdependences of the First and the Third world.The similarities and differences of the strategies the three artists use to examine injustice and violence poignantly illustrate the uses and abuses of power.

Book Description Encuadernación de tapa dura. Condition: Nuevo. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. Alemán/Inglés. A través de instalaciones a gran escala, combinando texto e imagen, Bruce Nauman, Barbara Kruger y Alfredo Jaar abordan la injusticia social, la violencia y las profundas ambigüedades que conforman a los individuos y la sociedad. Trabajando en medios que van desde el neón hasta el vídeo, Nauman juega de forma lúdica y desconcertante con juegos de lenguaje que desorientan al espectador en una crítica de las relaciones de poder que subyacen a la violencia privada y pública. Kruger, que empezó como diseñadora gráfica, utiliza el lenguaje ambiguamente seductor de los medios de comunicación para cuestionar las nociones habituales sobre el cuerpo, el género, el placer y el poder. Y Jaar, nacido en Chile pero afincado en Nueva York, combina la fotografía, el texto y la arquitectura para visualizar y definir las relaciones e interdependencias políticas, económicas y étnicas del Primer y el Tercer Mundo. Con un diseño innovador, con secciones de planchas y ensayos impresos en diferentes tamaños y tipos de papel, "Nauman, Kruger, Jaar" diferencia hábilmente las estrategias que estos tres artistas emplean en sus respectivos y conmovedores exámenes de los usos y abusos del poder. Ensayos de Nicholas Serota, Peter Fischer y Hans-Michael Herzog. Seller Inventory # ABE-1615741835102
