Unmonumental:Object in the 21st Cdntury 21世纪纪念碑
作者: Laura
简介:
In a world falling to pieces, a new breed of art objects is capturing its fractured allure in three dimensions. UNMONUMENTAL features recent work by thirty contemporary sculptors at the vanguard of their craft, selected by one of contemporary art's top curatorial teams. The sculptures in UNMONUMENTAL are forerunners in a major new artistic development. They are powerful but patently un-heroic; assembled from bits of the world at large, they are sardonic metaphors for our time. The artists featured in the book range from the just-emerged (Tobias Buche, Claire Fontaine, Gedi Sibony) to the internationally renowned (John Bock, Isa Genzken, Rachel Harrison). UNMONUMENTAL is generously illustrated with large full-color photographs of the works, most of which have never before been published. UNMONUMENTAL was created in conjunction with the inaugural exhibition of the New Museum of Contemporary Art's landmark new building, designed by Seijima + Nishazawa / SANAA, on the Bowery in New York.
Sempe: Everything is Complicated 每件事都很复杂
简介:
Jean-Jacques Sempé is one of the most successful and best-loved cartoonists in the world, best known from his cartoons that have graced the covers and pages of the New Yorker for decades. Sempé has published numerous collections of his work in his native France, but never before have they been translated into English. Phaidon Press is delighted to present the first English translated publication of EVERYTHING IS COMPLICATED by Jean-Jacques Sempé, one of four witty and beautifully illustrated collections from this notorious and widely adored cartoonist.
Sempé is equally adept at capturing the little indignities (and triumphs) of everyday life as he is at high farce. EVERYTHING IS COMPLICATED, the second Sempé volume published in France, features some of his favorite subjects, such as hapless tourists, pipe-smoking novelists and unruly schoolchildren, as well as people who choose to express their innermost feelings through the medium of the protest sign. One classic image portrays a family after dinner; the father, still in his work attire (a clown costume) berates his three boys only to find that his tirade and dress leave the boys in hysterics. Another tell-tale cartoon tells of a workers union parading the streets in protest, demanding their rights as written on expressive posters, while one concerned-looking man uses his sign to inquire if anyone in the crowd has lost a glove. These inimitable drawings and watercolors, accompanied by perfectly judged deadpan captions are fresh, engaging and funny.
Sempé's work, once just the one-of-a-kind illustrations that appeared before our American eyes in delightful yet sporadic moments, can now be brought home as an enchanting part of every family's library. EVERYTHING IS COMPLICATED, just one volume of four, includes more than 100 illustrations, both pen and ink, with captions translated by Anthea Bell. Professionals, children, and adults of any age will fall in love with these charming books.

Phaidon Press is delighted to present the first English translated publication of MIXED MESSAGES by Jean-Jacques Sempé, one of four witty and beautifully illustrated collections from this notorious and widely adored cartoonist.
The most recent collection of Sempé's work, MIXED MESSAGES was originally published in France in 2003. Here Sempé turns his attention to the trappings of modern life, from cell phones to designer water, and revisits some of his favorite subjects, such as struggling artists, a look psychiatrists and unhappy couples. One image portrays two business men in conversation, traveling down a cit street aboard personal scooters, ironically wondering about the kind of society they are leaving to their children. While another image, rendered beautifully in watercolor, mocks New York City's resolute ban of smoking in restaurants; calling on the NYPD to take out a lit cigarette in a vacated French Bistro. Whether he is poking fun at the urbane patrons of fashionable restaurants or the inhabitants of the bucolic countryside, Sempé treats all of his subjects with equal amounts of insight and affection.

作者简介:Jean-Jacques Sempé (b. 1932) is one of the most successful cartoonists and illustrators in the world, and still regularly contributes to magazines such as THE NEW YORKER and PARIS MATCH. Born in Bordeaux, Sempé was expelled from school for bad behavior. He enjoyed a variety of jobs, from traveling toothpaste salesman to summer camp worker, before winning an art prize in 1952. Although Sempé was never formally trained as an artist, more than twenty volumes of his drawings have been published, in thirty countries. Sempé also enjoys iconic status with generations of children (and adults) around the world, thanks to his collaboration with writer Rene Goscinny on a classic series of books about a little schoolboy called Nicholas. Phaidon Press published NICHOLAS (Hardback, 2005) to great acclaim last year. Sempé currently resides in France.
Anthea Bell (who with Derek Hockridge, also translated the entire ASTERIX THE GAUL saga comics) translated NICHOLAS into English from the original French. The recipient of a number of translation prizes and awards, among the first Marsh Award for Children's Literature in Translation for Christine Nöstlinger's A DOG'S LIFE (Andersen Press). Bell was selected as the recipient of the 2002 Helen and Kurt Wolff Translator's Prize for her exceptional translation of W.G. Sebald's novel AUSTERLITZ, published Random House. She recently translated the popular books, DRAGON RIDER (2004) and INKHEART (2003), both from Scholastic. Bell currently resides in England.
