herausgegeben von Hannelore Paflik-Huber

Als Protagonist der Heftigen Malerei und Mitbegründer der Galerie am Moritzplatz wurde Bernd Zimmer (geb. 1948) in den 1970ern bekannt. Seither entstand ein bemerkenswertes Œuvre, in dem die Auseinandersetzung mit der Natur einen zentralen Stellenwert einnimmt: von den Wüstenbildern und dschungelartigen Wäldern über die Serie der Cosmos-Bilder bis zu eindrucksvollen Holzschnitten monumentalen Formats. Der vorliegende Band lässt anhand von 75 ausgewählten Arbeiten die letzten 20 Jahre seines Schaffens Revue passieren und gibt Einblick in ein einzigartiges Werk, das souverän zwischen Gegenständlichkeit und Abstraktion, Natureindruck und autonomer Formgebung oszilliert.

Stuart Cary Welch and Kimberly Masteller

"Stuart Cary Welch's collection of Persian, Turkish, and Indian art is renowned throughout the world for its quality and depth. In 1999 Welch made a generous gift of drawings from his collection to the Harvard University Art Museums. Spanning five centuries and extending from Istanbul to Calcutta, the drawings represent the great empires of the Ottomans in Turkey, the Safavids in Iran, and the Mughals in India. This illustrated book presents more than seventy superb drawings from the Stuart Cary Welch collection - some of which are counted among the greatest Persian, Turkish, or Indian drawings ever made - and explores the connections between the arts and artists of the three cultures."--BOOK JACKET.

Created in 1993 by German artist Martin Kippenberger, the MOMAS (Museum of Modern Art Syros) is an artist museum open until 1996 in Greece on the island of Syros and set up in an unfinished building. Kippenberger invited his artists friends to make projects and works for this place which was also a critique of the museum itself. MAMCO owns all the models and plans of the MOMAS and most of the archives of its 7 years of activity. This book proposes the first comprehensive study of the MOMAS and situates this alternative museum in the history of museums created by artists in the 20th century. The book proposes also interviews with artists invited by Martin Kippenberger to participate to the life of his MOMAS.
