The exhibition examines the conditions, consequences, and contexts surrounding these formative works. Featured artists include Matthew Barney, Thomas Demand, Renee Green, Damien Hirst, Steve McQueen, Takashi Murakami, Chris Ofili, Laura Owens, Diana Thater, and Rachel Whiteread. This is also a rare opportunity to view many pivotal works from major regional centers such as Los Angeles, New York, Berlin, London, and Tokyo. The exhibition is organized by MOCA's chief curator Paul Schimmel and is accompanied by a comprehensive catalogue co-edited by University of Virginia assistant professor of art history Howard Singerman, author of Art Subjects: Making Artists in the Twentieth Century. Organized by MOCA Chief Curator Paul Schimmel with Project Director Ciara Ennis, the exhibition offers a rare opportunity to view many pivotal works for the first time since their debut and to examine similarities and differences between the cultural centers of Los Angeles, New York, Berlin, London, and Tokyo. For many of these artists, this is the first time that their works are being situated historically. The works featured in Public Offerings include photography, video, film, sculpture, installation, and painting and were made while still at art school or within a few years of graduation." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: From my institution to yours, by Howard Singerman; L.A. based and superstructure, by Lane Relyea; Conversation days: new Japanese art between 1991 and 1995, by Midori Matsui; Art academies and alternative environments, by Yilmaz Dziewior; The economics of culture: the revival of British art in the 80s, by Jon Thompson; Young Americans, by Katy Siegel.

Z : 21 x 27 cm, Hardcover, 340 pages, 337 color illustrations - In 1995, Mike Kelley realized Educational Complex, a model of the school he attended and the house where he grew up. The blind spots of the model represent forgotten zones, and are interpreted as symbolic places of institutional abuse. For Kelley, this work thus marks the beginning of a series of projects where autobiography, memory, and the reinterpretation of previous pieces become the privileged instruments in a poetic deconstruction of the structures and systems initiated at the end of the 1970s. Educational Complex Onwards, 1995-2008, is the first book bringing together these different works and offering such an overview of the development of Kelley's practice. Each project is extensively documented by artist's texts and reference material, while essays by Diedrich Diederichsen, Howard Singerman, and Anne Pontégnie explain the systemic change that the artist impulsed in his work to shift its direction and understanding.
