At least since his spectacular exhibition in the Romanian Pavilion at the 56th Venice Biennale in 2015, Adrian Ghenie (*1977 in Baia Mare, Romania) has been known to the broad public as one of the most interesting and unconventional painters of his generation. His works--painted in oils that have been scratched, applied with a palette knife, or thrown onto the canvas--have already gained entry into the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Tate Modern in London, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and have achieved one auction record after another in the art market. Yet neither Ghenie's subjects nor his technique cater to the taste of the public: the history of the 'century of humiliation' --which is how Ghenie refers to the twentieth century--its perpetrators and victims are the most important sources for his collage-like compositions. These subjects are joined by his positive heroes alike, such as Van Gogh and Darwin, and time after time, his self portrait

Monograph on Romanian painter Adrian Ghenie featuring seventy key works from the last four years. While Ghenie continues to explore the darker moments of European history, his compositions have become conspicuously more complex over the years as he has turned increasingly toward a brighter and more colorful palette, masterfully shifting between graphicness and abstraction.

At the 2015 Venice Biennale, the Romanian Pavilion showcases Darwin's Room, an exhibition of paintings by Adrian Ghenie (born 1977). The title refers not only to a recent series of portraits of (and self-portraits as) the great British naturalist, but also to Ghenie's exploration of 20th-century history as an "evolutionary laboratory."

"Ghenie's meditation on the idea of hooliganism, examining the role of rebellion in the artistic process, is applied here towards an excavation of art history and European history." -Art Observed This book documents a selection of works by artist Adrian Ghenie (born 1977) included in his exhibition The Hooligans. The artist's newest body of work, these nine paintings and three drawings continue Ghenie's exploration of abstracting figures, layering shapes and gestural painting techniques to create complex images intertwined with art historical narratives. Influenced by Impressionist painters, as well as Turner, Van Gogh and Gauguin, this new body of work documents Ghenie's exploration of abstracting figures, layering shapes and using gestural painting techniques to create complex images intertwined with art historical narratives. Ghenie's meditation on the idea of "hooliganism" examines the role of rebellion in an artist's process, working to reject or ignore traditionalism to create the new. An art historical text by Apsara DiQuinzio traces the trajectory of Ghenie's practice through to today. In her new text, Masha Tupitsyn discusses the concept of the double, looking at its history in philosophy, literature, film and art.

A lively introduction to the rich and diverse history of contemporary art over the past 60 years—from Modernism and minimalism to artists like Andy Warhol and Marina Abramović. Accessible and with lavish illustrations, this is the perfect gift for art history fans and anyone looking for a new, more inclusive perspective on ‘the old boys’ club.’ Encountering a work of contemporary art, a viewer might ask, "What does it mean?" "Is it really art?" and "Why does it cost so much?" These are not the questions that E. H. Gombrich set out to answer in his magisterial The Story of Art. Contemporary art seems totally unlike what came before it, departing from the road map supplied by Raphael, Dürer, Rembrandt, and other European masters. In The Story of Contemporary Art, Tony Godfrey picks up where Gombrich left off, offering a lively introduction to contemporary art that stretches from Andy Warhol’s Brillo boxes to Marina Abramović’s performance art to today’s biennale circuit and million-dollar auctions. Godfrey, a curator and writer on contemporary art, chronicles important developments in pop art, minimalism, conceptualism, installation art, performance art, and beyond.

Shadow of a Daydream is a series of powerful new paintings inspired by the artist's recent residency in Berlin. The works demonstrate Ghenie's fascination for history and the trauma of dictatorship; they also reveal his current preoccupation with the Jungian notion of the 'collective unconscious'. Ghenie has dramatically increased the scale of his paintings for this show in order to develop and sustain an array of complex compositions peopled with unexpected ensembles of figures, statues, boxes and buildings. Strangely, the eclectic and often bizarre groupings are completely convincing in their present contexts, connected as they are by what Ghenie describes as the 'surrealistic exercise' of daydreaming. There is a strongly progressive narrative that runs through Ghenie's exhibition; the sources for his images are derived from a combination of his own personal store of memories and from historical books, archives and film - both documentary and fictional. The weaving together of personal histories with collective memories makes for a psychologically disturbing encounter on the part of the viewer, who may experience a sense of unease or an uncanny jolt of recognition as they survey the paintings. Published on the occasion of the exhibition Adrian Ghenie: Shadow of a Daydream at Haunch of Venison, Zurich, November 2007 - January 2008.
