Primarily known for his paradigmatic "shelves" displaying everyday objects, Haim Steinbach (born1944) has developed a practice that evolved from early minimalist painting with grids andmonochromes to later large-scale installations that have seldom been seen in the US. Growingout of a travelling exhibition that features works drawn from throughout Steinbach's career, aswell as archival materials and new site-specific installations, Once Again the World Is Flat urgesreaders to take a closer look at this seminal artist's works. Hundreds of full-colour illustrations

document the exhibition, which included photographs, models and recreations from past works,along with photography of the site-specific installations that appeared at each institution. Newessays by writers Johanna Burton and Germano Celant explore the evolution of Steinbach'spractice and his investigations into what constitutes an art object and how art and objects aredisplayed.

Sarah Entwistle - Please Send This Book To My Mother

Sternberg Press 2015 ISBN 9783956791536 Acqn 25417Hb 16x24cm 176pp 168col ills £15.95

In Please send this book to my mother , artist Sarah Entwistle dismantles the traditional form ofthe architectural monograph and artist biography. In 2011, the astounding personal effects of hergrandfather, architect Clive Entwistle (1916–76), emerged from a Manhattan storeroom. Thisbook welds together original text fragments and extensive visual material from the collection andClive Entwistle’s years in Paris, London, Tangiers, and New York.

Clive Entwistle described his cardinal points as: Philosophy, Architecture, Intellect, and Sex. Hewas an autodidact whose unconsolidated practice tackled utopian city plans, product design,structural engineering, formal experimentation, and architectural critique. The one-time translatorand collaborator of Le Corbusier, Entwistle’s proposal for the Crystal Palace (1946) wasdescribed by Corbusier as, “one of the great projects of our time.” However, none of his ambitiousproposals was realized, and Entwistle’s presence was largely erased from the landscape ofmodernism.

Sarah Entwistle has constructed an ambiguous portrait, an evocative rendition of an extraordinarylife, which provokes questions on the authority of the biographer and the monograph. Thispublication reaches beyond these genres to resemble an artist’s book of poetry and prose fiction.

Having furnished solutions for Germany and Dubai, Ingo Niermann takes a new look at whatnationhood can mean and accomplish today, finding inspiration, of all places, in North Korea.Now that the promise of global prosperity and abundance can technically be fulfilled, the time hascome for a minimalist rethink of society. By relying on drills and a principle of reduction, the

individual can be granted a freedom for experiences and ideas that are not possible otherwise.The more we simplify, the lighter the ballast we’ll have to carry.

The twelfth volume in the Solution series includes an account of Niermann’s travels through Northand South Korea, accompanied by the author's photographs. The eleven solutions in Solution264-274: Drill Nation build from insights culled while on the trip.

Over the course of a 40-year career, Conceptual artist and photographer Sarah Charlesworth

deconstructed the conventions of photography and gave emphasis to the medium's importance inmediating our perception of the world. Part of a group of artists working in New York in the 1980sthat included Jack Goldstein, Sherrie Levine, Richard Prince, Cindy Sherman and LaurieSimmons, Charlesworth straddled 1970s Conceptual art and the Pictures Generation, creatingwork that probed the visual language of mass media and illuminated the impact of ubiquitousimagery on our everyday lives.

This fully illustrated catalogue accompanying Charlesworth's first major survey in New Yorkfeatures series such as Stills (1980), a group of 14 large-scale works rephotographed from pressimages that depict people falling or jumping off buildings; Modern History (1977-79), whichpioneered photographic appropriation; the alluring Objects of Desire (1983-88) and RenaissancePaintings (1991), which continued Charlesworth's trenchant approach to mining the language ofphotography; Doubleworld (1995), which probes the fetishism of vision in pre-modernist art andmarks Charlesworth's transition to a more active role behind the camera; and her final series,

Available Light (2012).

Political Landscape - Clegg & Guttmann,E. Grubinger,F. HUttner,A. Loderer,S. Philipsz,B.SarcevicSternberg Press 2015 ISBN 9783956791611 Acqn 25467Pb 14x21cm 194pp 68col ills £13.95

Edited by Dirck Möllmann, Elisabeth FiedlerTexts by Kirsty Bell, Elisabeth Fiedler, Martin Herbert, Dirck Möllmann

The Ausseerland and the partly inaccessible landscape in the Austrian Totes Gebirge look backon a chequered political history. A great number of activities both supporting and opposingHitler’s fascism were focused there in the mid-1940s. The year 2015 sees the seventiethanniversary of the liberation of Europe from Nazi totalitarianism. Only few witnesses of these pastevents are still alive at this time. Many events are known, many interpretations contested, but anencounter with contemporary art that focuses on historic sites in the landscape, and decides tointerpret these sites differently, is unprecedented.

Six art projects in the landscape work with this individual and collective memory—from Clegg &Guttmann, Eva Grubinger, Florian Hüttner, Angelika Loderer, Susan Philipsz, and BojanŠar čević. Published on the occasion of the eponymous group project and exhibition, this book is

intended to serve as a walking guide and to give the reader insights concerning the historicalbackground of the projects. It contains words and images about the various works, the artists,and the sites, as well as how to find them, along with details and anecdotes connected withplaces, events, and topics.
