books by Germano Celant     books:       Claes Oldenburg: An Anthology1 review Claes Oldenburg, Germano Celant, ... Guggenheim Museum Pubns, 1995 Clas Oldenberg / An Anthology I could not wait to get my hands on this book as Oldenberg (to me) is one of the great Contemporary Masters. To say the least it wasn't a dissapointment. It is "The" Bible of Oldenberg. I would reccomend this Anthology to anyone that has any interest whatsoever in the Building Blocks of Contemporaty Art.             Anselm Kiefer5 reviews Germano Celant Skira, 2007 The pictures do the talking This is a beautiful book which covers some of Kiefer's best work in painting as well as his photo-montage and book making activities. A small and eloquent tribute and forward leave adequate room for many full color reproductions (some double-paged) of paintings, large black and white photos taken by the artist, photos of installations and performances and reproductions of selections from his ...             Jim Dine: Walking Memory 1959-19691 review Jim Dine Guggenheim Museum, 2003 catalogue ha sido una buena adquisición, me parecen interesantísimos los textos y el énfasis que se hace en las etapas tempranas de Dine aunque me han hecho falta imágenes de las pinturas recientes que salen en el Five themes del mismo. Es general es un buen libro, la edición es impecable y las impresiones son de excelente calidad, yo le doy unas 5 estrellas a esta edición             Luigi Ghirri: It's Beautiful Here, Isn't It...2 reviews Germano Celant Aperture, 2008 Filled with countless color photos, as well as essays covering Ghirri's reflections "It's Beautiful Here, Isn't It..." is not just a book title; it's a statement that perfectly sums up this newest collection of photography from Luigi Ghirri. Filled with countless color photos, as well as essays covering Ghirri's reflections on the time he took the photos and the atmosphere surrounding the events, "It's Beautiful Here, Isn't It..." adds a personal touch to the gorgeous shots on ...             Keith Haring4 reviews Germano Celant Charta, 1994 NEW TO KEITH HARING? A VERY COMPREHENSIVE LOOK AT WORKS FROM THE WHOLE OF KEITH HARING'S RELATIVELY SHORT CAREER, YOU GET A DEFINITE FEELING OF HIS WORK CHANGING BEFORE YOUR EYES. THE TEXT, OF WHICH THERE IS AROUND 20 PAGES, MORE THAN ADEQUATELY SUMS UP THE THEMES AND AIMS OF THE ARTIST . THERE IS ALL YOU COULD WANT REALLY: · ART HISTORICAL CRITICISM( WITH FREQUENT REFERENCE TO THE ONSUING PLATES) · INTERVIEWS ...             Robert Mapplethorpe And The Classical Tradition3 reviews Jennifer Blessing, Arkady Ippolitov, ... Guggenheim Museum, 2004 The Classical Tradition A fantastic reference in respect of Robert Mapplethorpe's more purist work. Amazingly well presented, printed and published, it has relevant accompanying text and essays, and as with most Mapplethrorpe images, the plates are simply brilliant. Be aware, this text is an important part of the book, so it's not all just pictures, but it asssists with giving an insight into the formalist manner in ...             Richard Meier Museums2 reviews Richard Meier Rizzoli, 2006 CLASSIC MEIER Richard Meier's work is so gorgeous and this book captures in perfectly, in vivid, crisp images and insightful text. Personally, I love all of Meier's work, but his Museums are where he guilds the lilly, but in a good way, because of the massive budgets, he can indulge, and he does. In the breathtaking Getty, he had a benefactor with unlimited resourses and he created, what most consider his ...             Carsten Holler >Register<1 review Carsten Holler Fondazione Prada, 2002 Carsten Holler - Register Great book, great images. Only book available on this artist.             Mariko Mori - Dream Temple1 review Germano Celant Fondazione Prada,Italy, 1999 Documents an artwork in the best Japanese tradition I first saw the work of Mariko Mori in the Museum of photography in Tokyo in 1998. Mori tends to use her own image a lot in the manner of Cindy Sherman. The Dream Temple, however, is not self-referential but, instead, points back to Japanese history. Mori doesn't build her art herself but designs and supervises. This is similar to the way the wonderful Japanese woodblock prints were produced with ...             Brazil: Body & Soul1 review Emanoel Ara jo, Nelson Auguilar, ... Guggenheim Museum, 2003 The soul of Brazil Brazil Body and Soul is a 600 page tome that covers Brazil's artistic history from the early 1500's until the 1990's. The book is filled with intelligentlly detailed writing and artistically lush with photographs. This is a book (not a skimpy museum catalog) for anyone interested in the art and culture of Brazil; or a useful reference tool for someone interested in the arts of this grand ...             Barry Mcgee5 reviews Patrizio Bertelli, Barry McGee Fondazione Prada, 2002 UNTOUCHABLE BOOK BY A MILE the best book to date that show cases Barry Mcgee's work. The book is SUPER thick, Pictures are in color, quality of the pictures is incredible. Barry Mcgee raises the bar when it comes to putting out a book. The book is worth every penny. I liked it so much I bought 2, one for me, and one for my girlfriend. CANT GO WRONG WITH THIS BOOK!             Claes Oldenburg, Coosje Van Bruggen1 review Claes Oldenburg, Coosje van Bruggen Skira, 1999 review of Large Scale Works An excellent overview of Oldenburg's large scale works. The introductory essay by Celant is tedious and overlong, and his literary style is oblique and dense, although he does make some insightful comments. Outstanding are the photographs of both the fabrication and installation of Oldenburg's sculptures, and Oldenburg's own comments about the history of each work, including how the designs ...             Tony Cragg: Signs Of Life1 review David Batchelor, Peter Schjeldahl, ... Richter Verlag, 2004 It is in German Wonderful book but nowhere does the discripton indicate that the book is not in English. It is in Geman. If you don't read German and want to just look at the pictures then buy it.             Rebecca Horn2 reviews Rebecca Horn, Germano Celant, ... Solomon R Guggenheim Museum, 1993 Strong Artist, not comprehensive book. I was hoping for a more thorough compendium of this powerful artist's work. This book is good, but it's missing some important pieces in Horn's portfolio. Still her work is profound and makes me want to see it all, in person. The art is installation, drawings and performances of a very experiential nature, somewhat akin to Bruce Nauman.             Witkin6 reviews Germano Celant Charta, 1995 Very Highly Recommended - Biggest Visual Impact I appreciate Joel Peter Witkin's photos for a few years, before I can actually own this book finally. This book makes my experience complete. A comprehensive collection of Joel-Peter Witkin's work, which belongs to the dark side of human. The careful composition of human body, objects and background, sometimes with cross-reference to classical paintings, invites a surreal, poetic, and miserable ...             New York, New York: Fifty Years of Art, Architecture, Photography, Film, and Video1 review Skira, 2007 Not easy to follow This is the catalogue for an exhibition held in Monaco in 2006 which had the ambition of covering everything that New York produced in the visual arts since the fifties (architecture,cinema, photography, sculpture and painting). The result, albeit impressive by the weight of the book and the quality of the illustrations, is a little difficult to follow, no surprise for this overly ambitious ...             Giorgio Armani1 review Germano; Koda, Harold Celant Guggenheim Museum, 2000 Comprehensive Historical Reference This is not a typical fashion tome. The authors have traced the historical influences of Mr. Armani as well as validlly documenting his contribution to history (both in terms of fashion and in sociological influence). The photographs are well chosen and show the broad scope of his work. The detailed description accompanying the photographs of the actual museum exhibts are informative and ...             Mimmo Rotella: Selected Works2 reviews Skira, 2007 What every art book should be I pre-ordered this book months before the release date, not really knowing what to expect, but when it arrived I was blown away. As Amazon's description says, this book covers Rotella's work from 1946 to the present. The book is in chronological order, and there are hundreds of reproductions of his art, which are very detailed and often the size of a full page. The book also includes a good ...             Herzog & De Meuron: Prada Aoyama Tokyo1 review Patrizio Bertelli Fondazione Prada, 2004 New Book I am generally happy about the book, except when I am buying a 100 dollars book I will expect more from it, in particular in this situation, the back of book has a lot of scratches... certainly it won't affect the content whatsoever, but this is a book designed and made to be pure white with shinny silver pattern. That is the only drawback.             The Art of Being You3 reviews Gianni Versace, Germano Celant, ... Abbeville Press, 1998 Any coffee table w/o this should be green with envy! In the world of Art books, This has got to be the best posthumous release ever. Abbeville Press has outdone themselves with this masterpiece. I own Mr. Versace's previous 5 books, Signatures, Vanitas, Do not disturb, Rock and Royalty and Men w/o ties which I highly recommend. In this edition, Versace shows us that until his untimely death, the wheels never stopped turning.
