Artist Monograph. New./No Jacket - As Issued. 60pp, profusely illustrated in color and b&w. "Known primarily for his work as a filmmaker, multi-disciplinary artist Rocky Morton.makes a striking return to his roots in painting with a new book and exhibition entitled "While I'm Away". Drawing from his deep fascination with science and the essence of humanity, Morton’s latest works stand apart in their inspiration and innovative creation process. Morton uses a leaf blower to propel strings of paint mixed with a unique elastic ingredient across the canvas. This technique results in delicate, thread-like patterns reminiscent of mycelium, the fungal networks that connect all living plants and trees, bringing a touch of nature’s unpredictability into his art. Art critic and curator Peter Frank states in his introduction "Morton finds beauty in division – his colored paintings thrill with outpourings of intense hues, all assigned to their own regions yet struggling to oppose and at the same time embrace, even merge with, one another”. At the heart of "While I’m Awa" is the theme of universal connection. These paintings seek to transcend the familiar, venturing into uncharted territory, where the tangible world meets the infinite. Some pieces present literal interpretations, horizons where existence seems to emerge from nothingness, while others evoke the complex interconnectedness of the universe, akin to the synapses in the brain or fields of energy reminiscent of string theory. While I’m Away will be on display at Los Angeles' Shatto Gallery from November 2nd to December 7th 2024, offering art enthusiasts a rare opportunity to experience these visionary works firsthand". A brand new, most handsome example of this lovely new publication additionally BOLDLY SIGNED "Rocky Morton" in silver marker on the inside front cover. 979-8218982942 Inventory Number: I00241030

(NARA, YOSHITOMO) Text by Simon Reynolds, Stephanie Rosenthal. Pace Publishing, I00220908. 2022. 10 x 12 inches, 112 Pages. Hardcover. New/No Jacket - As Issued.

Recent works and a gorgeously crafted miniature gallery from the much-loved Japanese artist

From the outset of his career, Japanese painter and sculptor Yoshitomo Nara (born 1959) has fruitfully explored the relationship between art and the space in which it is placed. At the cornerstone of Nara's recent exhibition in Pace's London gallery was the most recent product of his ongoing study: a new multiroom installation that was reworked from an earlier project titled London Mayfair House.

Borrowing its title from the Ancient Greco-Roman term for a public art salon, Pinacoteca (2021) is a specially crafted, tiny, homelike structure that imitates an exhibition space. On the internal walls, the artist hung new paintings on wood and canvas as well as drawings on paper, used envelopes and cardboard boxes. On the external walls, which have been directly painted onto, Nara hung new paintings that are stylistically simpler and more graphic than the works inside the installation.

Yoshitomo Nara: Pinacoteca presents a close look at the structure, as well as the artist’s recent paintings, sculpture and works on cardboard also displayed in the exhibition. An essay by acclaimed music writer Simon Reynolds explores the relationship of music to Nara’s artistic production, and an essay by curator Stephanie Rosenthal dives deep into the role of built environments in the artist's oeuvre. 9781948701556 Inventory Number: I00220908

Fine/No Jacket - As Issued. 100pp, profusely illustrated in b&w. Designed by Herman Lelie and Stefania Bonelli. Text in English and Korean. "Tim Noble and Sue Webster have created a remarkable group of anti-monuments in their eleven-year career, mixing the strategies of modern sculpture and the attitude of punk to make art from anti-art. They sculpt piles of street rubbish, studio debris, and taxidermied animals into astonishing representations of life with "real" shadows of the artists themselves hovering over their accumulations of discarded objects. These abstract forms mysteriously reverse the abstraction into figuration". Published in conjunction with their 2005 Kukje Gallery exhibition "The Joy of Sex", bad boy and girl Noble and Webster have created an artists' book that drolly appropriates fellow Brit Dr. Alex Comfort's best-selling 1972 instruction manual of the same title by substituting their own images rendered in a similar mundane illustrative style as the graphically coupling couple.

The fascinating results become icons that serve to identify the individuals with the least information possible. Whereas most of Opie's portraits feature unknowns, some commissioned works feature public figures like Blur, Kate Moss or Michael Schumacher. By identifying them in the titles only by their first names and occupations, Opie zaps these celebrities of their fame and mythic status, simplifying them down to the familiar, human shape of their faces. A most handsome example of this uncommon item still in the publisher's shrinkwrap.
