Bellmer, Nauman, Pondick: material desire

Uittreksel

"The catalogue Bellmer Nauman Pondick: Material Desire is an outgrowth of conversations between Rona Pondick and Nunu Hung. So many rich connections between the three artists became apparent that they turned to the idea of a catalogue that would document, expand upon, and add to the central ideas of the exhibition. The art historian and curator, Albert Godetzky, whose work often focuses on the intersections of historical art with contemporary artistic practices, wrote the essay 'Fleshing Out'. 'Reflections on Material Desire', follows the essay and is a conversation between Pondick and Hung, in which they discuss the genesis of the exhibition and many of the ideas behind the publication. The catalogue is then divided into three separate sections—Material Desire: ‘Body’, ‘Color’ and ‘Placed’. In each section, reproductions of Bellmer’s, Nauman’s and Pondick’s work are paired with quotations from the artists, from art historians and from critics, that point to and expand upon relationships between the artists"-- Website Nunu Fine Art.
