Nan Goldin

Her work often explores LGBT bodies, moments of intimacy, the HIV crisis, and the opioid epidemic. Her most notable work is The Ballad of Sexual Dependency (1986), which documents the post-Stonewall gay subculture and Goldin's family and friends. She lives and works in New York City, Berlin, and Paris. Early life[edit] The Hug, NYC, 1980, Cibachrome print by Goldin. Goldin was born in Washington, D.C. in 1953[1] and grew up in the Boston suburb of Lexington to middle-class Jewish parents. This was in 1965, when teenage suicide was a taboo subject.

Career[edit] Following graduation, Goldin moved to New York City.[12] She began documenting the post-punk new-wave music scene, along with the city's vibrant, post-Stonewall gay subculture of the late 1970s and early 1980s. In 2000, her hand was injured and she currently retains less ability to turn it than in the past.[20] Activism[edit] Criticism[edit] Nan Goldin (American, born 1953) Nan Goldin.

Boris Mikhailov: Case History. Ukrainian-born Boris Mikhailov is one of the leading photographers from the former Soviet Union.

Boris Mikhailov: Case History

For over 30 years, he has explored the position of the individual within the historical mechanisms of public ideology, touching on such subjects as Ukraine under Soviet rule, the living conditions in post-communist Eastern Europe, and the fallen ideals of the Soviet Union. Although deeply rooted in a historical context, Mikhailov’s work also incorporates profoundly engaging and personal narratives of humor, lust, vulnerability, aging, and death. This exhibition is the first in-depth presentation of Mikhailov’s seminal Case History series (1997–98) in an American museum. This body of work explores the deeply troubling circumstances of people who have been left homeless by the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Peter Fischli & David Weiss

Peter Fischli (born 8 June 1952) and David Weiss (21 June 1946 – 27 April 2012), often shortened to Fischli/Weiss, were an artist duo that had been collaborating since 1979. They were among the most renowned contemporary artists of Switzerland. Their best-known work is the film Der Lauf der Dinge (The Way Things Go, 1987), described by The Guardian as being "post apocalyptic", as it concerned chain reactions and the ways in which objects flew, crashed and exploded across the studio in which it was shot.

Fischli lives and works in Zurich; Weiss died on 27 April 2012. Education and early career[edit] Peter Fischli & David Weiss Der Lauf Der Dinge A. Davidweissphotos.com. Wilfried Vandenhove. Lawrence Weiner. Lawrence Weiner (born February 10, 1942) is one of the central figures in the formation of conceptual art in the 1960s [1] His work often takes the form of typographic texts. Early life and career[edit] Design Matters: Lawrence Weiner. Lawrence Weiner is an American artist and iconoclast we shot in the Fall of 2009. I was approached by Debbie Millman, the host of the radio talk show Design Matters, who is a huge fan of Mr. Weiner. She had spoken to him about a radio interview but then thought why not film it.

It was a fun shoot, the way all of these Artist Series were. Very simple. The moving portrait was loosely influenced by a photograph from Canadian photographer Jeff Wall. Lawrence Weiner. “I try to make work that nobody can use if they are not willing to accept a change in whatever logic structure they are stuck in,” explains Lawrence Weiner. It is the day before the opening of his solo exhibition BE THAT AS IT MAY at the Lisson Gallery, and accompanied with a glass of whisky, he begins to unravel a five decade career in which he has deconstructed artistic practices and expanded the accepted notions of the art object. As the title of his new show suggests, Weiner proposes “are we going to accept this as art?” Something that has continued to fuel his fascination with materialism and breaking down the structure of things.

Of course not. That level of dismissiveness is entirely consistent with everything we think that we know about this great photographer from the American South. J D Salinger would have done the same. This man is not in the business of talking through his work. William Eggleston.

Copyright Ed Ruscha 2008 published by Steidl I have been aware of Ed Rucha’s self-published photographic books for many, many years, but due to very small production runs and subsequent rarity, these books have been very elusive. It was a pleasure to find this retrospective catalog providing a broad selection of the interior images from his sixteen photobooks published between 1963 and 1972 and his last collaborative book published in 1978. It is difficult to be artistically creative in Southern California without hearing about Ed Ruscha, whose studio is in, as well as primary subject is Los Angeles. In Focus: Ed Ruscha.
