Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Fifty paintings, reproduced in color, by an international array of contemporary artists, show the aptness and relevance of painting in an era of uncertainty.In an age of global instability, the threat of chaos looms. Or is the threat more spectral than real? The fear of chaos may simply be our response to living in a world controlled by powerful forces beyond our understanding. Chaos and Awe demonstrates the aptness and relevance of painting as a medium for expressing the uncertainty of our era. It presents more than fifty paintings, by an international array of contemporary artists, that induce sensations of disturbance, curiosity, and expansiveness--the new sublime, derived not from the unfathomable mystery of nature but from the hidden and often insidious forces of culture. Essays by art historians and painters who write offer context and illumination.Chaos and Awe, which accompanies a major exhibition at the Frist Art Museum in Nashville, shows that painting's capacity to represent the liminal space between the real and the virtual allows it to portray the shifting ground of today's social imaginary. With suggestions of fragmentation, instability, and murkiness, these paintings enclose what seems to be (as Simon Morley writes in his essay) wholly unenclosable. The paintings presented offer visions of interconnected forces invisibly shaping contemporary global experience; portray theintractability of veiled racial animus and the phantoms of the past that continue to haunt the present; suggest, through semi-abstract languages, long-term conflicts played out through nationalism and extremism; depict the conjunction of cultures not as flashpoints but in terms of cross-fertilization and a new hybridity; convey the role of digital technology in intertwining knowledge and doubt; express the elusive nature of perception through floating forms, liquid, gas, flame, and light; and cast instability and chaos as opportunities to expand our perceptions of the connectedness of knowledge, intuition, and spirituality.PaintersFranz Ackermann, Ahmed Alsoudani, Ghada Amer, Korakrit Arunanondchai, Radcliffe Bailey, Ali Banisadr, Pedro Barbeito, Jeremy Blake, Matti Braun, Dean Byington, Hamlett Dobbins, Nogah Engler, Anoka Faruqee, Barnaby Furnas, Ellen Gallagher, Adrian Ghenie, Wayne Gonzales, Wade Guyton, Rokni Haerizadeh, Peter Halley, Eddy Kamuanga Ilunga, Rashid Johnson, Guillermo Kuitca, Heather Gwen Martin, Julie Mehretu, Jiha Moon, Wangechi Mutu, James Perrin, Neo Rauch, Matthew Ritchie, Rachel Rossin, Pat Steir, Barbara Takenaga, Dannielle Tegeder, Kazuki Umezawa, Charline von Heyl, Sarah Walker, Corinne Wasmuht, Sue WilliamsContributorsMedia Farzin Media Farzin is a writer, editor, and educator.

Hardback. Zustand: New. An eye-opening collection from contemporary artists and authors about how art and technology can reimagine humanity's relationship with nature and society.Shimmer-the apt name of both the highly-illustrated book and the exhibition it accompanies-offers a timely collection of essays by today's key thinkers about art and technology. In this vital showcase that takes on some of the most salient questions of our time, authors and artists consider how a "posthuman" perspective can help inspire new ways to confront crises like climate change, species extinction, technological manipulation, and social alienation.Here, you'll find current thinking on interspecies entanglement, the role of dreams in imagining a post-anthropocentric world, a return to the interconnectivity found in prior (mostly Indigenous) technologies, and the power of enchantment. Examining both the advantages and dangers of twenty-first century tools, essayists explore the artistic use of quantum computing, machine learning, motion capture software, and augmented, extended, and virtual reality.Throughout this engaging collection, the authors show that, like the Surrealists of the twentieth century, many of today's artists tap the transformative agency of the marvelous, the uncanny, and the unpredictable, destabilizing conventional patterns of thought to open new pathways to unexplored terrain.Artist profiles include Nancy Baker Cahill, Ian Cheng, Chalet Comellas, Anna Dumitriu and Alex May, Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, Libby Heaney, Marguerite Humeau, Jakob Kudsk Steensen, Kite, Katja Loher, Josefa Ntjam, Rachel Rossin, Jacolby Satterwhite, Amelia Winger-Bearskin, Saya Woolfalk, and Marina Zurkow.The exhibition Shimmer: Dreaming the Posthuman opens September 2026 at the Frist Museum in Nashville and in 2027 travels to the Media Majlis Museum of Northwestern University in Doha and the Palmer Museum of Art, Penn State.…

Hardback. Zustand: New. Ritchie locates patterns in an unpredictable universe, with garden and flood serving as metaphors for growth and destructionPublished with Frist Art Museum.Renowned New York-based interdisciplinary artist Matthew Ritchie (born 1964) seeks to visualize thought, connecting such fields as philosophy and mythology, epic poetry and science fiction, and history and physics, through installations of paintings, wall drawings, light boxes, games, sculpture, films and performance works. His works challenge social fragmentation by suggesting a unified theory of everything.Published for an exhibition at the Frist Art Museum, A Garden in the Flood examines a selection of his paintings, architectural structures, elaborate diagrams and hallucinatory video animations (which notably include a collaboration with the Grammy Award-winning Fisk Jubilee Singers). Employing "garden" and "flood" as metaphors for growth and destruction, transformation and renewal, Ritchie encourages readers to "reimagine the role art could play in whatever form of society may emerge next.".…
