ISBN-13: 978-1-908970-19-0, ISBN: 1-908970-19-7

"Since the 1990s, acclaimed Norwegian and London-based artist AK Dolven has produced a substantial body of work that explores the relationship between individuals and the perception of their environment, the connections that bind inner and outer realities. Using a diverse range of media, she combines seemingly simple, almost minimalistic elements to create complex responses to a particular locale especially the frozen landscapes of the A ..."

The Quick and the Dead(1st Edition)
by Peter Eleey, Ina Blom, Peter Osborne, Olaf Blanke, Margaret Wertheim, Fore. Olga Viso, Et. Al, Walker Art Center
Hardcover, 352 Pages, Published 2009 by Walker Art Center
ISBN-13: 978-0-935640-93-9, ISBN: 0-935640-93-2

"Artists have always used their imaginations to see beyond visible matter--to posit other physics, other energies, new ways of conceiving the visible and new models for art--but the past century has seen an explosion of such investigations. In the fashion of a Wunderkammer, The Quick and the Dead takes stock of the 1960s and 70s legacy of experimental, or "research" art by pioneers like George Brecht, who posited objects as motionless ev ..."

The Return of the Human Figure in Semiocapitalism
by Hal Foster, Ina Blom, Stefanie Heraeus, Oliver Brokel, Caroline Busta, Stefan Deines, Jutta Koether, Isabelle Graw, Daniel Birnbaum, Nikolaus Hirsch
Paperback, 98 Pages, Published 2011 by Sternberg Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-934105-75-7, ISBN: 1-934105-75-9

"Many contemporary artworks evoke the human figure: consider the omnipresence of the mannequin in current installations of artists like John Miller, Thomas Hirschhorn, Heimo Zobernig, or David Lieske. Or consider the revival of a minimalist vocabulary, which embraces anthropomorphism as in the works of Isa Genzken and Rachel Harrison. This book brings together contributions from the eponymous conference, all of which seek to speculate on ..."

Hardcover, 256 Pages, Published 2008 by Guggenheim Museum
ISBN-13: 978-0-89207-377-1, ISBN: 0-89207-377-2

"During the 1990s a number of artists claimed the exhibition as their medium. Working independently or in various collaborative constellations, they eschewed the individual object in favour of the exhibition environment as a dynamic arena, ever expanding its physical and temporal parameters. Their work engages directly with the vicissitudes of everyday life, offering subtle moments of transformation. This catalogue, which accompanies a m ..."

Art, Sociality, and Media Culture (Sternberg Press)
by Ina Blom
Paperback, 255 Pages, Published 2007 by Sternberg Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-933128-30-6, ISBN: 1-933128-30-5

"This book takes its cue from a simple observation. During the last 30 years or so, the term style has all but disappeared from art critical or art historical terminology. For new art history it was an increasingly problematic term, associated with the taxonomist and historicist concerns of “old” art history, not to speak of its fixation on the figure of the great artist. For contemporary art criticism the term seemed simply irrelevant: ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-56466-104-3, ISBN: 1-56466-104-0

"Born of necessity in 1961, fathered by George Maciunas and mothered by the rejection of high art and commerical values, the anti-art Fluxus movement is here recorded with encyclopedic thoroughness. With historical essays by Fluxus artists including George Brecht, Robert Filliou, Dick Higgins, Allan Kaprow, Per Kirkeby, Yoko Ono, Nam June Paik, and Maciunas, and critical passages by Arthur Danto, Joan Rothfuss, and others, this book ques ..."

A Commonplace Book
by Eileen A. Joy, Judith Rodenbeck, Christina Mcphee, Phil King, Frazer Ward, Ina Blom, Donata Marletta, Melissa Potter, Eszter Timar, James Macdevitt
Paperback, 166 Pages, Published 2017 by Punctum Books
ISBN-13: 978-1-947447-08-0, ISBN: 1-947447-08-4

"Christina McPhee’s ‘commonplace book’ draws from a palimpsest of handwritten notes, lists, quotations, bibliographic fragments, and sketches, from an artist whose voracious reading practice is a direct feed into her life and art — all set to a visual and textual design-as-score, as prominent writers on painting, media arts, performance, video installation and poetics engage with her ‘open-work’ practice. Christina McPhee’s images move f ..."

Organized chaos is one of his main principles in composition and content. His intense way of attacking ..."

Hardcover, 332 Pages, Published 2016 by Amsterdam University Press
ISBN-13: 978-94-6298-214-7, ISBN: 94-6298-214-7

"How do new media affect the question of social memory? Social memory is usually described as enacted through ritual, language, art, architecture, and institutions ? phenomena whose persistence over time and capacity for a shared storage of the past was set in contrast to fleeting individual memory. But the question of how social memory should be understood in an age of digital computing, instant updating, and interconnection in real tim ..."

ISBN-13: 978-3-95679-189-5, ISBN: 3-95679-189-4

"n this innovative take on early video art, Ina Blom considers the widespread notion that analog video was endowed with lifelike memory and agency. Reversing standard accounts of artistic uses of video, she follows the reflexive unfolding of a technology that seemed to deploy artists and artistic frameworks in the creation of new technical and social realities. She documents, among other things, video's emergence through the framework of ..."

"Les sociétés secrètes sont toujours à l'œuvre dans l'ombre, dit-on. On ne leur en impute pas moins pour autant nombre d’événements qui font date, jusqu’à des révolutions, détentrices comme elles le sont d’un savoir secret qui leur permet de se livrer aux conspirations les plus raffinées avec aisance. Templiers, jésuites, rosicruciens, francs-maçons, théosophes, Opus Dei, CIA, Mafia, ETA, IRA, P2 ou Al-Qaida – tous représentent un danger ..."

Illustrated
ISBN-13: 978-84-92505-16-6, ISBN: 84-92505-16-8

"Ray Johnson (1927-1995) had an ambivalent relationship with the art world. From famous precursor to impenetrable marginal figure, from critic to artist who yearned for fame at all costs, Johnson intuited his own vital art somewhere between collage and the communicative potential of an immense postal network. Like the MACBA's current monographic exhibition - the first in Spain dedicated to his work - this book mostly focuses on the New Y ..."

"The eye is the dominant sensory organ of our age, with more and more information received in still and moving images, and more and more information mined visually from spatial dimensions that are ever smaller and ever greater. The use of a wide variety of optical devices has long been second nature to us, and their methods of extending the reach of our sight--virtually and really--have instigated fundamental, far-reaching changes in our ..."
