The sculptural work of Chillida (San Sebastian, 1924-2002) is non-figurative and characterised, in the artist's own words, by the dialogue between masses and voids of often monumental proportions, elements that he endows with conceptual unity thanks to his mastery of the laws of movement and balance. In this book Carandente, far from restricting himself to commenting on the most visible aspects of the artist's career, analyses the conceptual and technical dimensions of his activity, both the individual task of searching and perfecting and the socio-cultural context that acts as a framework to the Basque sculptor's output. Chillida is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding figures in the sculpture of the second half of the 20th century. 782 illustrations

A deluxe appreciation of Eduardo Chillida's public sculpture The outdoor public works of Basque sculptor Eduardo Chillida (1924-2002), which are installed in various cities around the world, are protrayed here in stunning black-and-white photography, highlighting the intensity of his monumentally scaled abstract sculptures. In most cases, the architectural, urban or landscape setting determines many elements of the sculpture, and the artist strives to relate his design to the external environment in which it is placed. Here, both the details of each sculpture and its setting are featured. Chillida: Open-Air Sculptures begins with an essay by Italian art critic Giovanni Carandente that tracks Chilida's origins and inspirations, and also analyzes his civic and social themes. The volume also features a wide selection of the artist's own writings, included on inserted pages printed on an alternative paper stock. Chilida's lucid meditations on sculpture outline his intentions and desires, bringing us closer to the work itself.

Eduardo Chillida (1924 - 2002) is among the 20th century sculptors who have decisively contributed to the non-figurative vocabulary of sculpture and its material innovation. Along with steel, stone and concrete, he has favoured wrought iron as a material that, as he says, he subjects to a dynamic process and forcefully endows with his own vibrations till the theme has fully crystallized and space and form become inseparable. The sculptural form, which avoids identification and - in contrast to the pieces by Henry Moore - hardly even reminds us of the volume of our body, serves as an instrument to make (empty) space visible. Chillida's writings, which in this book are published for the first time, take the reader into the mental world of the sculptor, his philosophical reflections and notations on his work, all of which serve the concentration of energy found in the collection. This publication includes text written by renowned British sculptor, Tony Cragg. English text.

Isa Genzken is arguably one of the most important and influential female artists of the past 30 years. Genzken's work - which spans sculptures, paintings, photographs, collages, drawings, artist's books, films, installations and public works - has been part of the artistic discourse since she began exhibiting in the mid-1970s, and a new generation of artists has been inspired by her radical inventiveness over the last decade - a period in which she has redefined assemblages. Published to accompany Genzken's first comprehensive retrospective in the USA, this book is the most complete monograph on the artist available in English. It presents Genzken's career in essays exploring the unfolding of her practice from 1973 until today and an illustrated chronological overview of her most important bodies of work and key exhibitions. 0Exhibition: Museum of Modern Art, New York, USA (23.11.2013-10.03.2014) ; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, USA (12.04.-03.08.2014) ; Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas, USA (14.09.2014-04.01.2015)

The catalogue is published on the occasion of the first individual exhibition of Georges Vantongerloo in Spain. The catalogue reveals the grounding of his work in the re-conceptualisation of pictorial and sculptural space that marked the abstract tendencies in art of the early 20th century. In the 1920s an important part of the Vantongerloos investigation was centred on colour as physical and perceptive phenomenon. Later, Vantongerloo will conceive his works according to strictly geometric rules, algebraic afterwards, to turn, thus, into the founder of the mathematical thought in art in our epoch. Genuine pioneer in the abstract sculpture field, the artist will continue, after 1945, proposing peculiar versions of that kind of sculpture, abandoning all the reference to a built geometry, and opening to a subjective approach to the universe of cosmology.
