Guillermo Kuitca, whose paintings and prints are often inspired by seating arrangements in theater interiors, recreated the seating chart for Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center in this work. In a characteristic manner, he casts a shadow of red over the diagram, which turns the space into an abstract superposition of planes. One of the most prominent contemporary artists from Latin America, the Argentine Guillermo Kuitca makes haunting paintings of stadiums, airports, theaters, and other public spaces; borrowing imagery from maps, floor plans, and seating charts.

DANIEL KNORR, Pukapuka Tohunga Mahi Toi, 2009
ca 16 x 23 x 2,5 cm
SC, inserted objects, Maori text, 240 pages, DVD
edition 168
numbered, signed
published by Clouds, Aotearoa, New Zealand
Daniel Knorr’s artist’s book ‘Pukapuka Tohunga Mahi Toi’ involves a process of mapping the city in which Knorr collected pieces of rubbish on the street. This material was interleaved into the blank pages of each book and pressed by a 200-ton press, embossing the objects into the paper. Each book sets out to respond to local concerns and histories and, for this reason, the text for the New Zealand version is entirely in Maori. The cover the artist used the typeface Churchward Maori, designed by New Zealand type designer Joseph Churchward. The book includes a video which documents the process of making the work.
Clouds is a small publishing house involved in the publication of art books.

While looking through the water tank the words could be espied by the viewer. In Kassel this re-staged work consisted of a wall of crates composed of 7000 water bottles. In this case these were filled with Kassel water coming out of a tap which from Navid Nuur’s studio.

Musically, “Swing Your Thing” is a stunning mix of New Wave in the spirit of early Atatak and Zick Zack releases, exotic Sci-Fi soundtracks and raw Techno in the vein of Electronicat. “Bergkapelle Mount Everest” is the second project by artists Jonathan Meese and Tim Berresheim, originally released as three-sided LP in 2003. This time Meese’s lyrics relate to the world of the mountains in an almost radioplay-like piece of music.
