Hans Ulrich Obrist leads readers into the world of path-breaking Syrian artist Simone Fattal in this intensely personal volume.Hans Ulrich Obrist leads readers into the world of path-breaking Syrian artist Simone Fattal in this intensely personal volume.For over five decades, Simone Fattal (b. 1942, Damascus) has eschewed singular form or subject in her wide-ranging artistic practice. In this deeply personal biography, Fattal's close friend and confidante Hans Ulrich Obrist journeys with the artist across physical borders and through seats of imagination. Together they discuss the artist's remarkable early life in Syria, her coming-of-age in Lebanon, as well as her transcultural life in France. Wartime memory and exile in California, sow the seed for discussions regarding archaeology, history, and mythology.Beginning her artistic life as a painter in 1969, Fattal initially created sensuous abstract works that diverged from the predominantly figurative paintings commonly exhibited in Lebanon at the time. In 1980, after a decade spent in Lebanon, Fattal fled the ongoing civil war, departing from painting, eventually settling in Sausalito, California, where she founded the revolutionary publishing house, Post-Apollo Press.In 1988, after studying sculpture in San Francisco, Fattal was consumed by another wave of creativity that led her to pursue the creation of ambitious ceramic sculpture-a medium in which she continues to work in to this day from her studio in Paris.Prose and interviews between Fattal and Obrist are annotated and introduced by Dr. Omar Kholeif, whose essay helps situate Fattal's multiple creative journeys. An afterword by author, curator, and filmmaker Rasha Salti entitled "Warrior Women Fall From a Low Height" pulses, both in its lyricism and its expressive desire to solder and suture histories, once fractious, back together.Published in collaboration with artPost21 Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A visual index of Lebanon's urban ruinsPerched on the edge of the Mediterranean, the city of Beirut was once a bustling site of modern architecture. Since the Lebanese Civil War, which broke out in 1975 and claimed over 120,000 lives before its cessation in 1990, many of Beiruts modernist gems have lain abandoned or ruined. Beirut Bereft profiles 57 of these structures as indicative of the wider fragmentation of Lebanon. Lebanese writer Rasha Salti and photographer Ziad Antar generated a visual, textual and cartographic vocabulary to profile the skeletons of office towers, hotels and apartment blocks that overlook the serene Mediterranean. One such building, the Murr Tower, has become something of an emblem of the destruction and lost hopes of Beirut. Begun in 1974 and incomplete at the beginning of the war, this Corbusier-inspired structure now looms over a city trying to find its way again.

Exposition à deux voix, « GIACOMETTI / MARWAN OBSESSIONS » propose un dialogue inédit entre deux artistes qui, ayant choisi de créer dans un pays autre que leur pays de naissance ? la France et l?Allemagne ?, interrogent les questions de la modernité à partir de deux espaces culturels différents : l?Europe et le Moyen-Orient. Giacometti et MARWAN ont fait de la représentation de la tête le centre d?une recherche obstinée qui fonde leur position d?artiste. Cette exposition, première présentation commune de leurs ?uvres, propose une conversation croisée dans laquelle surréalisme et premières ?uvres de MARWAN (1962-1972), dessins, têtes et portraits sculptés, se répondent, affirmant un lien fort entre recherche plastique et réflexion sur l?humain. …
